Commissioning of the LCLS-II photoinjector started in late 2018. Efforts to accurately model the gun and laser profiles is ongoing. Simulations of the photoinjector and solenoid are performed in ASTRA, IMPACT-T and OPAL-T. This work includes efforts to use the laser profile at the virtual cathode as the initial transverse beam distribution, and effects of 2D and 3D field maps. Beam size results are compared to experimental measurements taken at the YAG screen located after the gun.

  CBETA, the Cornell BNL ERL Test Accelerator, will be the first multi-turn Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) with SRF accelerating cavities and Fixed Field Alternating gradient (FFA) beamline. While CBETA gives 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. To investigate the CSR effects on CBETA, we used the established simulation code Bmad to track a bunch with different parameters. We found that CSR causes phase space dilution, and the effect becomes more significant as the bunch charge and recirculation pass increase. Potential ways to mitigate the effect involving varying phase advances are being investigated.

  A 125kV DC gridded thermionic gun has been de-signed and constructed through a collaboration between Jefferson Lab and Xelera Research LLC. The gun has been recently installed at the Gun Test Stand diagnostic line at Jefferson Lab where transverse and longitudinal parameter space will be experimentally explored. The status and results characterizing the commissioning and trouble-shooting the thermionic gun are presented.
