  Top-up injection into low emittance light sources is challenging due to their inherent small dynamic apertures (DA). The use of a multipole-magnet injection kicker prevents disturbing the circulating beam. However, the injected bunch will be mismatched due to unwanted focusing (linear field profile) or even filamented (nonlinear field profile). Coreless nonlinear kicker magnets, using different configurations of straight conductors, can produce transverse step-like magnetic field distribution which prevent the mismatch. We explored an 8-conductor configuration and a multi-conductor approach like unipolar massless septum design. Maximizing the spatial derivative of the transverse field step function is crucial in order to kick the injected bunch inside the DA. Comparing the results of different designs a particular dependence between the smallest clear aperture and the maximum transverse field spatial derivative was observed. We have developed an optimization tool to generate arbitrary 2D magnetic fields and determine the associated current distribution. With it we obtained new design solutions for possible injection magnets that go beyond the limitations of the standard designs.

  High stability resonant kicker magnet systems have been developed as part of the fast electron beam switching system of Swiss Free Electron Laser (SwissFEL). They are designed to separate two closely spaced electron bunches (28 ns apart) accelerated in one RF macro-pulse and to send them to two separate undulator lines. High shot-to-shot amplitude stability is required to minimize the disturbance of the electron beam trajectories and to ensure stable X-ray lasing. The stability and speed was unlikely to be achieved by standard pulsed systems and a novel 18 MHz, lumped-element resonator deflector with high Q was developed. It is driven into resonance by a specialized pulsed RF driver. At resonance, the circulating currents can approach 300 A and the resulting magnetic field gives the required deflection to the electron bunches. The advanced DC offset measurement system is also described in this paper. The measured stability reached less than 1 ppm (10e-6) rms, well within the project requirements.

  Linacs for FEL applications require a low jitter RF path from RF source through pulsed amplifiers, klystron / modulators and cavities. For the SwissFEL project, pulsed solid state power amplifiers of the 500W / 3us class for driving the klystrons were required. For these amplifiers, a stable and reliable interferometer system was developed to measure the residual RF jitter levels to <10 ppm (parts per million) and <10 urad (0.6mdeg) rms. This paper describes the system and gives some measurement results for 3GHz, 5.7GHz and 12GHz amplifiers.
