Comissioning Progress and Advanced FEL Experiments at the SXFEL Facility | |
|
||
The Shanghai soft X-ray Free-Electron Laser facility (SXFEL) is the first X-ray FEL facility in China. The construction of the SXFEL facility was finished in 2022. The output photon energy of the SXFEL can cover the whole water window range. Except for the self-amplified spontaneous emission, various seeding technques have also been adopted for improving the performances of the SXFEL. Here we presents an overview of the SXFEL facility, including the layout and design, construction status, commissioning progress and future plans on advanced FEL experiments. | ||

Energy Recovery Linac Based Multi-pointing Fully Coherent Light Source | |
|
||
Energy recovery linac (ERL) holds great promise for generating high repetition-rate and high brightness electron beams. In this paper, we consider the combination of ERL with the recently proposed anglerangular-dispersion induced microbunching technique to generate fully coherent radiation pulses with high average brightness and tunable pulse length. Besides, we design a multiplexed emitting system, which consists of multi-bend achromats (MBAs), matching sections and radiators to support multi-beamline operation in the long straight section of the ERL. Theory and simulation have been carried out and the results indicate that the microbunching and beam quality maintains well after four times of bending, indicating the continuously radiation with the wavelength of 13.5 nm and the peak power of 2 MW. | ||

WE4P09 | Heat Load and Radiation Pulse of Corrugated Structure at SHINE Facility | 168 |
|
||
Corrugated structure modules are being proposed for installation after the end of the linac and before the undulator regions of SHINE facility, where it has been used for energy chirp control and as a fast kicker for two color operation of the FEL. When ultra-relativistic bunch of electrons passing through corrugated structure will generate strong wakefield, we find most of the wake power lost by the beam is radiated out to the sides of the corrugated structure in the form of THz waves, and the remaining part casue Joule heating load on the corrugated structure wall. In this paper, we estimate the radiation pulse power and Joule power loss of the corrugated structure in SHINE facility. | ||

WE4P13 | Physics Design and Beam Dynamics Optimization of the SHINE Accelerator | 174 |
|
||
Shanghai HIgh Repetition Rate X-ray Free Electron Laser and Extreme Light Facility (SHINE) is a hard X-ray FEL facility which is driven by a 1.3 km supercon-ducting Linac, aims to provide high repetition rate pulses up to 1 MHz . In this study, we present the physics design of the SHINE accelerator and considerations of beam dynamics optimizations. Start-to-end simulation results show that, a high brightness electron beam with over 1500 A quasi-flat-top current can be attained which fully meet the requirements of FEL lines. Furthermore, design of the bypass line is also discussed. | ||

Progress Towards X-ray Free-electron Laser Driven by Plasma Wakefield Accelerator at SXFEL | |
|
||
Free-electron lasers (FEL) are unique light source for various applications in structural biology, chemistry and condense physics. Plasma-based accelerators can provide ultrahigh accelerating gradient which is 3~4 orders of magnitude higher than conventional technology, holding the potential for a revolution in particle accelerators. This novel technology therefore has been given high expectations for the development of compact free-electron lasers. SXFEL is a single-pass FEL user facility that provides 2~10 nm radiation for fundamental and applied research. In frame of this report, we present concept and design of a large-bandwidth XFEL based on a plasma wakefield accelerator (PWFA) driven by SXFEL electron beams. An ultrabroad bandwidth is achieved by chirping the electron beam in a hollow-channel plasma and simulations demonstrate that a spectral bandwidth of up to 24% can be obtained in this scheme. We will also present the recent progress on the construction of PWFA-based XFEL experimental station at SXFEL, and the preliminary experimental results on the PWFA and FEL radiation generation. | ||
