TUPME047 | SINBAD - A Proposal for a Dedicated Accelerator Research Facility at DESY | 1466 |
|
||
A new, dedicated accelerator research facility SINBAD (Short INnovative Bunches and Accelerators at DESY) is proposed. This facility is aimed at promoting two major goals: (1) Short electron bunches for ultra-fast science. (2) Construction of a plasma accelerator module with useable beam quality. Research and development on these topics is presently ongoing at various places at DESY, as add-on experiments at operational facilities. The two research goals are intimately connected: short bunches and precise femtosecond timing are requirements for developing a plasma accelerator module. The scientific case of a dedicated facility for accelerator research at DESY is discussed. Further options are mentioned, like the use of a 1 GeV beam from Linac2 for FEL studies and the setup of an attosecond radiation source with advanced technology. The presently planned conversion of the DORIS storage ring and its central halls into the SINBAD facility is described. The available space will allow setting up several independent experiments with a cost-effective use of the same infrastructure. National and international contributions and proposals can be envisaged. | ||

FEL Dynamics Measured with the X-band Transverse Deflecting Cavity | |
|

Funding: Work supported by U.S. Department of Energy contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. We report on measurements of the longitudinal phase space profile of the bunch as it evolves along the length of the LCLS undulator. An x-band transverse deflecting cavity downstream of the undulator makes time resolved energy profile measurements with fs resolution. The electron energy loss mechanism of the FEL process is observed and allows us to reconstruct the temporal profile of the x-ray pulse on a shot by shot basis. We have been able to observe with unprecedented resolution microbunching in the beam and resonant energy loss leading to exponential gain and saturation in the FEL, as well as provide the users with the temporal profile of the x-rays on every shot. |
