  Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin officially started Jan. 2011 the design and construction of the Berlin Energy Recovery Linac Project BERLinPro. The initial goal of this compact ERL is to develop the ERL accelerator physics and technology required to accelerate a high-current (100 mA) low emittance beam (1 mm•mrad normalized), as required for future ERL-based synchrotron light sources. High power ERL based FELs demand low emittance, high peak and average current beams. The injection energy in an ERL is usually rather low to decrease power consumption and avoid activation of the beam dump. Therefore, the space charge is the main reason of the emittance degradation in the injector. The implementation of an emittance compensation scheme in the injector is necessary to achieve a low emittance. Since injector’s optics is axially non-symmetric, the 2D-emittance compensation scheme [1] should be used. The implementation of the 2D-emittance compensation scheme at BERLinPro injector is presented in this contribution. Other sources of emittance growth in ERL injectors are also discussed.

  Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin officially started Jan. 2011 the design and construction of the Berlin Energy Recovery Linac Project BERLinPro. The initial goal of this compact ERL is to develop the ERL accelerator physics and technology required to accelerate a high-current low emittance beam. The conversion efficiency of an FEL is about 1% therefore superconducting ERL-based FEL machines look promising. One of the problems of superconducting ERL machines is the Beam Break Up (BBU) instability which limits the current. In this work the threshold current of the BBU instability was calculated for the BERLinPro. The comparison of two 100 MeV linacs based on different type of superconducting cavities is made. Different methods of BBU suppression are investigated (e.g. the influence of solenoid, pseudo-reflector and quadruple triplets in the linac structure on the BBU threshold).
