The Photo Injector Test facility at DESY, Zeuthen site (PITZ), focuses on testing, characterizing and optimizing high brightness electron sources for free electron lasers. PITZ is equipped with a number of transverse emittance measurement stations, among which is the Phase Space Tomography (PST) module. A PST measurement requires a specific transport along the tomography lattice, which ideally rotates the beam in the normalized transverse phase space by 180 degrees in equidistant steps. A preceding matching section is used to provide an injection scheme that delivers the necessary beam parameters for the design transport along the tomography lattice. The high charge density and moderate energy of the electron bunch at PITZ contribute to significant space-charge forces which lead to emittance growth and consequent mismatches of the design parameters. This article presents and evaluates measurements of the emittance increase along the matching section of a 1 nC beam at 22 MeV/c under different focusing schemes. | ||

WEPRO055 | Development of a Quasi 3-D Ellipsoidal Photo Cathode Laser System for PITZ | 2069 |
|
||
Funding: Funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) project 05K10CHE in the framework of the German-Russian collaboration "Development and Use of Accelerator-Based Photon Sources". 3-D ellipsoidal photo cathode laser pulses are considered as the next step in optimization of photo injectors required for a successful operation of linac based free electron lasers. Significant improvements in electron beam emittance obtained from the beam dynamics simulations using such laser pulses compared to the conventional cylindrical pulses motivated the experimental studies in order to develop a laser system for quasi 3-D ellipsoidal pulses. The Institute of Applied Physics (Nizhny Novgorod, Russia) in collaboration with the Joint Institute of Nuclear Research (Dubna, Russia) and the Photo Injector Test facility at DESY, Zeuthen site (PITZ) is developing such a photo cathode laser system. Experimental tests of the laser system with photoelectron beam production are planned at PITZ. The laser pulse shaping is realized using the spatial light modulator technique. The laser system is capable of pulse train generation. First cross-correlation measurements were done demonstrating in principle the ability to generate and measure quasi ellipsoidal laser pulses. In this contribution the overall set-up, working principle and the actual progress of the development will be reported. |

THPRO044 | Report on Gun Conditioning Activities at PITZ in 2013 | 2962 |
|
||
Recently three RF guns were prepared at the Photo Injector Test Facility at DESY, location Zeuthen (PITZ) for their subsequent operation at FLASH and the European XFEL. The gun 3.1 is a previous cavity design and is currently installed and operated at FLASH, the other two guns 4.3 and 4.4 were of the current cavity design and are dedicated to serve for the start-up of the European XFEL photo-injector. All three cavities had been dry-ice-cleaned prior their conditioning and hence showed low dark current levels. The lowest dark current level – as low as 60μA at 65MV/m field amplitude – has been observed for the gun 3.1. This paper reports in details about the conditioning process of the most recent gun 4.4. It informs about experience gained at PITZ during establishing of the RF conditioning procedure and provides a comparison with the other gun cavities in terms of the dark currents. It also summarizes the major setup upgrades, which have affected the conditioning processes of the cavities. | ||
