MOPA35 | Design Status of the European X-FEL Tranverse Intra Bunch Train Feedback | 133 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by Swiss State Secretariat for Education and Research SER The European X-Ray Free Electron Laser (E-XFEL) will have a fast transverse intra-bunch train feedback (IBFB) system to stabilize the beam position in the SASE undulators. E-XFEL bunch trains consist of up to 2700 bunches with a minimum bunch spacing of 222ns and typ. 10Hz train repetition rate. The IBFB will measure the positions of each bunch in the bunch train, and apply intra-train feedback corrections with fast kickers, in addition to a feed-forward correction for reproducible trajectory perturbations. By achieving a feedback loop latency in the order of one microsecond, the IBFB will allow the beam position to converge quickly to the nominal orbit as required for stable SASE operation. The latest conceptual design of the IBFB and the status of IBFB components will be presented. |

TUCC03 | Design and Expected Performance of the New SLS Beam Size Monitor | 307 |
|
||
The vertical emittance minimization campaign at SLS, realized in the context of the TIARA WP6, has already achieved the world's smallest vertical emittance of 0.9 pm in a synchrotron light source. The minimum value reached for the vertical emittance is only five times bigger than the quantum limit of 0.2 pm. However, the resolution limit of the present SLS emittance monitor has also been reached thus, to further continue the emittance minimization program the construction of an improved second monitor is necessary. In this paper we present the design and studies on the performance of this new monitor based on the image formation method using vertically polarized synchrotron radiation in the vis-UV spectral regimes. This monitor includes a new feature, providing the possibility of performing full interferometric measurement by the use of a set of vertical obstacles that can be driven on the light path. Simulations results are used to investigate the possible source of errors and their effects on imaging and the determination of the beam height. We also present the expected performance, in term of emittance accuracy and precision, and discuss possible design limitations. | ||

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. | ||
