THPAN014 | Beam Dynamics of the 100 MeV Preinjector for the Spanish Synchrotron ALBA | 3253 |
A turn key 100 MeV linac is under construction, in order to inject electrons into the booster synchrotron of ALBA [1]. The linac will deliver electron beams according to two operation modes: a single bunch mode (1 to 16 pulses - 0.25nC each) and a multi-bunch mode (112ns - 4nC). We have calculated the beam dynamics, using our in house code, PRODYN [2], from the gun to the end of the linac. The beam behaviour, such as the radial control, the bunching process, the energy spread and emittance are analysed.
