TUPA24 | Design of Cavity BPM Pickups for SwissFEL | 390 |
|
||
SwissFEL is a 0.1nm hard X-ray Free Electron Laser being built at PSI. A photocathode gun, S-band injector and C-band linac provide 2 bunches at 28ns spacing, 10-200pC charge, and 5.8GeV maximum energy. A fast distribution kicker will provide one bunch each to one hard X-ray and one soft X-ray undulator line. For linac and undulators, first prototypes of dual-resonator cavity BPM pickups have been designed and fabricated. The pickups were optimized for low charge and short bunch spacing in the linac. Design considerations, simulation and first test results will be reported. | ||
TUPA27 | Beam Test Results of Undulator Cavity BPM Electronics for the European XFEL | 404 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by Swiss State Secretariat for Education and Research SER The European X-ray Free Electron Laser (E-XFEL) will use dual-resonator cavity BPMs (CBPMs) in the SASE undulators to measure and stabilize the beam trajectory. The BPM electronics is developed by PSI, while the pickup mechanics is developed by DESY. First beam tests with three adjacent pickups have been performed. The system architecture and algorithms, achieved performance and noise correlation measurements of the present electronics prototypes will be presented. |

THCB02 | Twisting Wire Scanner | 607 |
|
||
A new type of 'two-in-one' wire scanner is proposed. Recent advances in linear motors' technology make it possible to combine translational and rotational movements. This will allow to scan the beam in two perpendicular directions using a single driving motor and a special fork attached to it. Vertical or horizontal mounting will help to escape problems associated with the 45 deg scanners. Test results of the translational part with linear motors will be presented. | ||
