The effect of ILC positron source’s helical undulator to the drive electron beam is of great interest. People have been looking into the effect of wakefield, quad misalignment and also the effect of radiation. In this paper we’ll report an emittance damping effect of the ILC positron source undulator to the drive electron beam and our QUAD-BPM error simulation results. For 100m RDR undulator, the emittance of drive electron beam will be damped down by about 1% instead of growing as the damping is stronger than quantum excitation for this RDR undulator with the RDR drive electron beam. Quad-BPM misalignment simulations show that a 20um rms misalignment error in a 250m long undulator beamline can cause about 5% emittance growth in drive electron beam. Taking into consider the damping effect of undulator, the net emittance growth will be smaller. |
