The S-DALINAC is a superconducting electron accelerator operated at TU Darmstadt. It is running in recirculating operation since 1991. An upgrade done in the years 2015/2016 enables to use the S-DALINAC as an energy-recovery linac (ERL) [1]. The lattice is capable of a once- (up to 34 MeV) or twice-recirculating ERL operation (up to 68 MeV). For both modes dedicated beam dynamics simulations have been conducted. An important aspect is the effect of phase slippage and its influence on the quality of the decelerated beam. Furthermore, investigations regarding specialized diagnostic systems are currently ongoing. This is of great importance especially for the twice-recirculating ERL, where two beams of the same energy are transported through the same beam line. The commissioning of the different ERL modes started in 2017 and will be continued during upcoming beam times. This contribution will give an overview on the ERL modes at S-DALINAC. The beam dynamics simulations as well as diagnostics used will be discussed. Results and operational findings of the different ERL runs will be presented.

The Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin is constructing the Energy Recovery Linac Prototype BERLinPro, a SRF based demonstration facility for the science and technology of ERLs for future high power, high brilliance electron beam applications. BERLinPro was designed to accelerate a high current (100 mA, 50 MeV), high brilliance (norm. emittance below 1 mm mrad) cw electron beam. Given the recent prioritization of the BESSY II upgrade to the BESSY VSR variable pulse length storage ring, HZB is forced to reduce the project goals of BERLinPro. As a result, the project had to be rescoped with the goal to maximize its scientific impact within the present boundary conditions. We report on the last year’s progress of the building, the warm and cold infrastructure and on the time line, goals nd opportunities for the remaining project run time.

MESA is a recirculating superconducting accelerator under construction at Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz. It can be operated in either external beam or ERL mode and will be used for high precision particle physics experiments. The operating beam current and energy in EB mode is 0.15 mA with polarized electrons at 155 MeV. In ERL mode a polarized beam of 1 mA at 105 MeV will be available. In a later construction stage of MESA the beam current in ERL-mode shall be upgraded to 10 mA (unpolarized). Civil construction and commissioning of components like electron gun, LEBT and SRF modules have been started already. We will give a project overview including the accelerator layout, the current status and an outlook to the next construction and commissioning steps.

TUCOXBS04 The LHeC ERL - Optics and Performance Optimizations linac, optics, emittance, lattice 34

The LHeC 60 GeV ERL baseline design features a racetrack composed of two linacs, completed with 6 return arcs, including vertical spreaders and recombines at the arcs ends. Here, we consider a design strategy aiming at ’downsizing’ the ERL e.g. to 50 GeV, while preserving its performance in terms of synchrotron radiation effects. This results in a significant reduction of accelerator components. The optimization explores tuning of each arc, which takes into account the impact of synchrotron radiation at different energies. At the highest energy, it is crucial to minimize the emittance dilution; therefore, the cells are tuned to minimize the dispersion in the bending sections, as in a theoretical minimum emittance lattice. At the lowest energy, one compensates for the bunch elongation with a negative momentum compaction setup which, additionally, contains the beam size. The intermediate energy arcs are tuned to a double bend achromat lattice, offering a compromise between isochronicity and emittance dilution. Finally, a feasibility of a ’dogbone’ ERL is discussed.

TUCOXBS05 Beam Timing and Cavity Phasing linac, acceleration, target, injection 39

  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.

  A prototype Fast Reactive Tuner (FRT) for superconducting cavities has been developed, which allows the frequency to be controlled by application of a potential difference across a newly developed ultra-low loss ferro-electric material residing within the tuner. The tuner operates at room temperature, outside of the cryostat and coupled to the cavity via an antenna and co-axial cable. This technique allows for active compensation of microphonics, eliminating the need to design over-coupled fundamental power couplers and thus significantly reducing RF power particularly for low beam current applications. Modelling; simulation; and stability analysis, of the tuner; cavity; measurement system; and feedback loop, have been performed in the frequency and time domain, and are compared to the latest experimental results. The potential benefits of applying this techniques to ERLs, which are seen as one of the major use cases, are detailed both in general and with regards to specific projects. Ideas and designs for an improved next generation FRT are also discussed.

  In the main linac (ML) of the KEK-cERL, two superconducting cavities with high loaded Q (QL ¿ 1×107) are operated in continuous wave (CW) mode. It is important to control and suppress the microphonics detuning owing to the low bandwidth of the cavities. We evaluated the background microphonics detuning by the low level radio frequency system during the beam operation. Interestingly, a ¿field level dependence microphonics¿ phenomenon was observed on one of the cavities in the ML. Several frequency components were suddenly excited if the cavity field is above a threshold field (~3 MV/m). We found that this threshold field is probably related with the cavity quench limits despite the unclear inherent physical mechanism. Furthermore, in order to optimize the cavity resonance control system for better microphonics rejection, we have measured the mechanical transfer function between the fast piezo tuner and cavity detuning. Finally, we validated this model by comparing the model response with actual system response.

The recirculating superconducting Darmstadt linear accelerator S-DALINAC [1] is one of the main research instruments at the institute for nuclear physics at the TU Darmstadt. It is operating in cw mode at beam currents of up to 20 uA with energies of up to 130 MeV using a thrice recirculating scheme. In 2010 the present digital low-level rf (LLRF) control system was set into operation. Since 2017 the S-DALINAC can be used as an energy recovery linac (ERL). The ERL mode is adjusted by shifting the phase of the beam by 180° in the second recirculation. The current setup of the LLRF control system is not optimized for the usage in an ERL operation. Therefore investigations in regard of the rf control performance have to be done. The first successful one turn ERL operation was set up in August 2017 where the rf control performance was investigated the first time in this new mode. In this talk the LLRF control system of the S-DALINAC is presented and its perfomance during an ERL operation is discussed.

  We present the conceptual designs of BriXS and BriXSino (a minimal test-bench demonstrator of proof of principle) for a compact X-ray Source based on innovative push-pull ERLs. BriXS, the first stage of the Marix project, is a Compton X-ray source based on superconducting cavity technology with energy recirculation and on a laser system in Fabry-Pérot cavity at a repetition rate of 100 MHz, producing 20-180 keV radiation for medical applications. The energy recovery scheme based on a modified folded push-pull CW-SC twin Linac ensemble allows to sustain MW-class beam power with almost just one hundred kW active power dissipation/consumption.

  The injector for PERLE, a proposed electron Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) test facility for the LHeC and FCC-eh projects, is intended to deliver 500 pC bunches at a repetition rate of 40.1 MHz for a total beam current of 20 mA. These bunches must have a bunch length of 3 mm rms and an energy of 7 MeV at the entrance to the first linac pass while simultaneously achieving a transverse emittance of less than 6 mm mrad. The injector is based around a DC photocathode electron gun, followed by a focusing and normal conducting bunching section, a booster with 5 independently controllable SRF cavities and a merger into the main ERL. A design for this injector from the photocathode to the exit of the booster is presented. This design was simulated using ASTRA for the beam dynamics simulations and optimized using the many objective optimization algorithm NSGAIII. The use of NSGAIII allows more than three beam parameters to be optimised simultaneously and the trade-offs between them to be explored.

  We present simulation results to decouple the emittance contributions that are intrinsic from the injector lattice versus emittance contributions due to the quality of the cathode out of a 100 MeV electron injector system. Using ASTRA driven by the NSGA-II genetic algorithm, we optimized the LCLS-II injector system with a zero emittance cathode. We then imposed FEL specific energy constraints and show how the Pareto Front solution shifts. Lastly, we reoptimized at various cathode emittances to map out the dependence of cathode emittance versus final emittance out of the injector system. We then determined the cathode quality needed to hit a 0.1 mm mrad 95% rms transverse emittance specification out of the current LCLS-II injector system.

In this report, we present the development of a fast harmonic kicker, a normal conducting deflecting cavity that kicks electron bunches from ERL ring to circulator cooler ring (CCR) in Jefferson Lab Electron Ion Collider (JLEIC). This cavity utilizes 5 harmonic modes to generate a sharp kick to the electron bunch at high frequency of 86.6MHz, which is injection frequency into the CCR. The beam dynamics study and RF design of the hardware was reported in [1],[2]. In this report we present further progress including impedance by higher order mode (HOM) study and mechanical design for fabrication.

MESA is a two pass energy recovery linac (ERL) currently under construction at the Johannes Gutenberg-University in Mainz. MESA uses two 1.3 GHz TESLA type cavities with 12.5 MV/m of accelerating gradient in a modified ELBE type cryomodule in c.w. operation. One potential limit to maximum beam current in ERLs is the transverse beam breakup (BBU) instability induced by dipole HOMs. These modes can be excited by bunches passing through the cavities off axis. Following bunches are then deflected by the HOMs, which results in even larger offsets for recirculated bunches. This feedback can even lead to beam loss. To measure the quality factors and frequencies for the dressed as well as undressed cavities improves the validity of any current limit estimation done.

  HOM damping in the superconducting cavities has been becoming increasingly important for high current beam acceleration. Though some HOM damping devices have already been used with success at moderate currents, they have some inherent disadvantages for high current in principle. We have proposed the new type of the HOM coupler using the C-shaped wave guide (CSWG). The CSWG is structured by topologically transforming a rectangular waveguide into coaxial-like structure whose inner and outer conductors are connected with a plate. Similar to the rectangular waveguide, the CSWG has cutoff frequency whose half wave length is approximately equal to the mean circumference. This enables a smaller low-pass filter than the rectangular waveguide. Since the inner conductor can be easily cooled through the plate and the outer conductor, this prevents the connector for HOM power extraction from temperature rising. These characteristics of the CSWG-type HOM coupler can solve the disadvantages of the conventional damping devices. The properties of sufficient HOM damping were confirmed by the measurements with the CSWG-type HOM couplers equipped to the cavity models.

Quality of photocathode in a photoinjector is one of the critical issues for the stability and reliability of the whole accelerator facility. In April 2013, the IR FEL lasing was demonstrated for the first time with the electron beam from the SRF gun with Cs2Te at HZDR. Cs2Te photocathode worked in SRF gun-I for more than one year without degradation. Currently, Mg photocathodes with QE up to 0.5% are applied in SRF Gun-II, generating e- beam with bunch charge up to 300 pC in CW mode with sub-ps bunch length for the high power THz radiation. It is an excellent demonstration that SRF guns can work reliably in a high power user facility.

The 113 MHz superconducting gun is used an electron source for the coherent electron cooling experiment. The unique feature of the gun is that a photocathode is held at room temperature. It allowed to preserve the quantum efficiency of Cs2KSb cathode which is adversely affected by cryogenic temperatures. Relatively low frequency permitted fully realize the accelerating field gradient what in turn helps to achieve 10 nC charge and 0.3 microns normalized emittance. We present the achieved performance and operational experience as well.

The typical requirement of Energy Recovery Linacs to produce beams with high repetition rate and high bunch charge presents unique demands on beam diagnostics. ERLs being quite sensitive to time of flight effects necessitate the use of beam arrival time monitors along with typical position detection. Being subjected to a plethora of dynamic effects, both longitudinal and transverse phase space monitoring of the beam becomes quite important. Additionally, beam halo plays an important role determining the overall transmission. Consequently, we also need to characterize halo both directly using sophisticated beam viewers and indirectly using radiation monitors. In this talk, I will describe the instrumentation essential to ERL operation using the Cornell-BNL ERL Test Accelerator (CBETA) as a pertinent example.

FRCOXBS03 Beam Dynamics Simulations for the Twofold ERL Mode at the S-DALINAC* linac, electron, acceleration, GUI 155

The recirculating superconducting electron accelerator S-DALINAC [1] at TU Darmstadt is capable to run as a onefold or twofold Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) with a maximum energy of approximately 34 or 68 MeV in ERL mode, respectively. Since the maximum kinetic energy for the twofold ERL mode at injection is less than 8 MeV (v/c<0.9982) and since several multi-cell cavities designed for v/c=1 are used in the main accelerator, the electrons suffer from the effect of phase slippage. Therefore, beam dynamics simulations for the 6D phase space were performed in order to provide a sufficient beam guiding.
