Funding: The work was supported in part by the Italian Ministry of University and Research under grant FIRB-RBAP045JF2. Travelling wave and standing wave deflectors are well known RF devices that nowadays are used in particle accelerators as a beam diagnostic tool. They will also be implemented in FERMI@Elettra project, a soft X-ray fourth-generation light source under development at the ELETTRA laboratory, and used to completely characterize the beam phase space by means of measurements of bunch length and transverse slices emittance. In particular, one deflector will be placed at low energy (250MeV) and another at high energy (1.2GeV), just before the FEL process starts. In this note we collect our experience and simulation on this last device, making a comparison between the most relevant options we have considered to satisfy our RF and space constraints. Basic cell design is discussed for both the travelling and standing wave choice. In particular, two different modes, the 2/3π and the 5/6π, are analyzed for the travelling wave option while an 11 cells design in π mode is presented for the standing wave case. For both cases sensitivity analysis and other relevant RF parameters are given. |
