MOPC12 | Coherent Synchrotron Radiation and Bunch Compression Studies in the Emittance Exchange Beamline at the Fermilab A0 Photoinjector | 121 |
|
||
One of goals of the Fermilab A0 photoinjector is to investigate experimentally the transverse to longitudinal emittance exchange principle. Coherent synchrotron radiation in the emittance exchange line could limit short pulse operation of the emittance exchanger. In this paper, we present experimental and simulation study of the coherent synchroton radiation (CSR) in the emittance exchange line at A0 photoinjector. We also show how EEX can be used to compress a bunch by adding chirp to the incoming beam. | ||
THOA3 | Demonstration of Transverse-to-longitudinal Emittance Exchange at A0 Photoinjector | 443 |
|
||
The 3-D phase-space manipulation of electron beams enhances the performance of next generation accelerators including high energy colliders and accelerator based light sources. In this paper we will report an observation of near ideal transverse to longitudinal emittance exchange at the Fermilab A0 Photoinjector. The emittance exchange (EEX) beamline consists a 3.9 GHz normal conducting deflecting mode cavity positioned between two magnetic doglegs. We will also compare the experiment results to simulations. | ||
THPB24 | Generation and Acceleration of Uniformly-filled Ellipsoidal Bunches Obtained via Space-charge Expansion from a Semiconductor Photocathode | 605 |
|
||
We report on the experimental generation, acceleration and characterization of a uniformly-filled electron bunch obtained via space-charge-driven expansion (so called "blow-out regime") at the A0 photoinjector at Fermilab. The beam is photoemitted from a CsTe photocathode using a short (<~200 fs) ultraviolet pulse obtained via frequency-tripling of an amplified Ti:Sp infrared pulse. The produced electron bunches are characterized with conventional diagnostics and the measurements are bench-marked against numerical simulations performed with ASTRA and GPT. | ||
THPB25 | EXPERIMENT AND SIMULATIONS OF SUB-PS ELECTRON BUNCH TRAIN GENERATION AT FERMILAB PHOTOINJECTORS | 609 |

Recently the generation of electron bunch trains with sub-picosecond time structure has been experimentally demonstrated at the A0 photoinjector of Fermilab using a transverse-longitudinal phase-space exchange beamline. The temporal profile of the bunch train can be easily tuned to meet the requirements of the applications of modern accelerator beams. In this paper we report the A0 bunch-train experiment and explore numerically the possible extension of this technique to shorter time scales at the Fermilab SRF Accelerator Test Facility, a superconducting linear electron accelerator currently under construction in the NML building. |
