Funding: Central Laser Facility, STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Harwell Campus, Didcot, OXON. OX11 0QX. UK Following on from the successful implementation of 'Cerberus' a comprehensive laser interlock / control and hazard display system*,**, on the Vulcan High-Power Laser at the Central Laser Facility (CLF)***, the last few years have seen the safety system become a CLF standard and its use extended to many different laser systems and laboratories within the department. This paper will provide an overview of the system, its enhancements and in particular the most recent developments of a design tool and the potential for this system to be used in other fields. * CLF Annual Report 2004-05: ‘A new interlock system for the Vulcan laser' ** CLF Annual Report 2006-07: ‘The Argus/Cerberus interlock system used throughout the CLF' *** www.clf.stfc.ac.uk |

THPOPRPO16 | Diagnostics at JINR LHEP Photogun Bench | ion, electron, emittance, cathode | 117 |
|
|||
The photoinjector electron beam quality strongly depends on the laser driver beam quality. For laser beam diagnostics, a "virtual cathode" system was realized at the photogun bench located in the Veksler and Baldin Laboratory of High Energy Physics (LHEP) of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR). The system allows one to image laser beam profile at the cathode. For imaging, the AVINE software suite developed in DESY Zeuthen is used. Equipment for emittance measurement using the slit method was installed. The original emittance calculation software EmCa was created and tested with laser beam. | |||
