Optimizations of electron sources for short-wavelength Free Electron Laser (FELs) at the Photo Injector Test facility at DESY, location Zeuthen (PITZ) have been continued with a new radio frequency (RF) gun cavity, a new post-accelerating Cut Disk Structure (CDS) booster cavity and several upgraded diagnostic components. The new booster cavity allows stable operation with higher acceleration and longer pulse trains than the operation with the previous TESLA type cavity. Electron beams with a maximum mean momentum of about 25 MeV/c can be produced with the setup described in this paper. Together with the upgraded RF system for the gun and the new CDS booster cavity, the electron beam stability was significantly improved. A large fraction of the measurement program in 2010-2011was devoted to study the dependence of the transverse projected emittance on the bunch charge. Measurement results using this upgraded facility are reported and discussed.

The main aim of the Photo-Injector Test Facility at DESY, location Zeuthen (PITZ) is to develop and test an FEL photo-injector system capable of producing high charge electron bunches of lowest possible transverse emittance, which has a fundamental impact on FEL performance. Recent measurement results at PITZ showed a fairly small electron beam transverse projected emittance [1] which increased interest in the thermal emittance and its contribution to the overall electron beam emittance budget. Therefore thermal emittance was investigated at PITZ. Results of these studies are presented and discussed.

The 1.3 GHz superconducting accelerator developed in the framework of TESLA and the European XFEL project holds potential to accelerate high charge electron beams. This feature has been successfully demonstrated during the first run of the free electron laser at the TESLA Test Facility with lasing driven by electron bunches with a charge of up to 4 nC. Currently DESY and the European XFEL GmbH perform revision of the baseline parameters for the electron beam. In this report we discuss a potential option of operation of the European XFEL driven by high charge (1 nC to 3 nC) electron beams. We present the results of the production and characterization of high charge electron bunches. Experiments have been performed at PITZ and demonstrated good properties of the electron beam in terms of emittance. Simulations of the radiation properties of SASE FELs show that application of high charge electron beams will open up the possibility to generate radiation pulse energies up to a few hundred milli-Joule level.

High stability of the RF photo gun is one of the necessary conditions for the successful operation of linac based free electron lasers. Fluctuations of the RF launch phase have significant influence on the beam quality. Investigation on the dependence of different gun parameters and selection of optimal conditions are required to achieve high RF gun phase stability. Measurements of the gun RF phase stability are based on beam charge and momentum monitoring downstream of the gun. The stability of the RF gun phase for different operating conditions has been measured at the Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ) and the results will be presented.
