  While Energy Recovery Linac (ERLs) give promise to deliver unprecedentedly high beam current with simultaneously small emittance, Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR) can pose detrimental effect on the beam at high bunch charges and short bunch lengths. CBETA, the Cornell BNL ERL Test Accelerator, will be the first multi-turn ERL with SRF accelerating cavities and Fixed Field Alternating gradient (FFA) beamline. To investigate the CSR effects on CBETA, the established simulation code Bmad has been used to track a bunch with different CSR parameters. We found that CSR causes phase space dilution, and the effect becomes more significant as the bunch charge and recirculation pass increase. Convergence tests have been performed for the CSR parameters to validate the observed micro-bunching instability. Potential ways to mitigate the effect involving vacuum chamber shielding and increasing bunch length are also being investigated.

  In a multi-pass Energy Recovery Linac (ERL), each cavity must regain all energy expended from beam acceleration during beam deceleration. The beam should also achieve specific energy targets during each loop that returns it to the linac. To satisfy the energy recovery and loop requirements, one must specify the phase and voltage of cavity fields, and one must control the beam flight times through the return loops. Adequate values for these parameters can be found by using a full scale numerical optimization program. If symmetry is imposed in beam time and energy during acceleration and deceleration, the number of parameters needed decreases, simplifying the optimization. As an example, symmetric models of the Cornell BNL ERL Test Accelerator (CBETA) are considered. Energy recovery results from recent CBETA single-turn tests are presented, as well as multi-turn solutions that satisfy CBETA optimization targets of loop energy and zero cavity loading.
