MOPEA082 | The ALPHA Project at IU CEEM | 268 |

We are building a low energy electron storage ring that has many desirable properties, such as varying momentum compaction factor, damping partition numbers, favorable betatron tunes for multiturn accumulations, and excellent dynamic aperture. This storage ring can be used for debunching rf linac beams in one turn, for compression of linac pulses, and more importantly for a compact photon source based on inverse Compton scattering of laser beams. |

THPEA052 | Design of a Fast Extraction Kicker for the ALPHA Project | 3792 |
|
||
In this report, we present our design of a fast extraction kicker for ALPHA. Due to the fast rise time and high voltage requirement, we choose the traveling wave kicker. Both 2D Posisson and 3D Microwave Studio simulation are carried out. Uniformity of electric field, energy transmission through the stripline structure and time response of the kicker are studied carefully. A prototype kicker will be built and tested soon. |
