As an upgrade of the present coherent harmonic generation (CHG) source at the DELTA storage ring, the installation of an additional undulator to implement and study the echo-enabled harmonic generation (EEHG) scheme [1] is planned. Compared to the CHG scheme, EEHG allows to produce radiation of shorter wavelengths, thus reaching more relevant absorption edges. In order to avoid dispersive distortions, all undulators should be placed along a straight line. This requires to increase the length of the present straight section by rearranging several magnets and vacuum components as well as a significant modification of the storage ring optics.

| WEPA16 | Quasi-cw Normal Conducting Linac for Soft XFEL | linac, wakefield, klystron, factory | 359 |

| The CW operating soft XFELs have been proposed worldwide to serve large user community simultaneous. In principle, the superconducting linac technology is the only solution to realize such a cw light source. However, large amount of R&D efforts are still needed to build such a linac, which could delay such facility for a significant long period. Therefore, it will be very important to explore the other technology based such XFEL, like the normal conducting based quasi-cw (10s kHz) linac. With the initial study, it turns out that such a quasi-cw linac could be built with L-band (1.3 GHz) or X-band (11.4 GHz) technology. And the L-band devices for such a linac have been developed in the frame work of ILC. | |||
| THPA02 | Two-dimensional Effects on the Behavior of the CSR Force In a Bunch Compression Chicane | emittance, electron, FEL, optics | 469 |

Funding: This work was supported by U.S. DOE under Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177. The endeavor to reach higher brightness of electron bunches in the design of future FEL is seriously challenged by the CSR effect in magnetic bends. Extensive studies on the CSR effects have shown that the 1D approximation of the CSR force is valid for a wide parameter regime. However, as the bunch gets increasingly compressed in the compression process, the behavior of the CSR interaction force will be influenced by the evolution of the 2D bunch distribution. Here we explore this 2D effect using semi-analytical and numerical study of the retarded potentials for an evolving 4D Gaussian phase space distribution with initial energy chirp. We will present results of our systematic exploration of this two-dimensional effect. We will display the interesting dependence of the 2D CSR force on the initial horizontal emittance and uncorrelated energy spread around minimum bunch length, and show the comparison of these results with their 1D counterpart. Physical interpretation will also be discussed. |

| THPA25 | Standard Electron Beam Diagnostics for the European XFEL | electron, cavity, diagnostics, undulator | 527 |
|

| The European XFEL under construction in Hamburg needs to control the electron beam parameters for reliable machine and FEL operation. Due to the flexible bunch pattern, a minimum bunch spacing of 222 ns and large beam charge range a high dynamic range of the monitors is necessary. Furthermore the high average beam power enforces an elaborated machine protection system. This paper presents an overview of the planned standard electron beam diagnostics. The status of the main systems is presented, as well as the results from prototype tests with beam at FLASH. | |||
| THPB25 | EXPERIMENT AND SIMULATIONS OF SUB-PS ELECTRON BUNCH TRAIN GENERATION AT FERMILAB PHOTOINJECTORS | electron, quadrupole, cavity, simulation | 609 |

Funding: The work was supported by the US DOE Contracts No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the Fermi Research Alliance, LLC. and No. DE-FG02-08ER41532 with Northern Illinois University. 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. |

| THPB27 | Application and Design of the Streak and TV Readout Systems at PITZ | electron, laser, radiation, booster | 613 |

Funding: Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY, Germany The Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ) was built to develop and optimize photoelectron injectors for FELs like FLASH and the European XFEL. In PITZ electrons can be accelerated to momenta up to 20 MeV/c. Optimization of all injector parameters such as the longitudinal properties of the electron bunch is needed. A streak system is used to measure the complete longitudinal phase space distribution of the bunch with an accuracy of few ps. In this system the electron beam penetrates Aerogel radiators or Optical Transition Radiation screens OTR and produces Cherenkov light, which is transported by an optical line to a streak camera. The emitted light presents the charge distribution in the electron bunch. Some modifications of the streak beamline, such as using a Hybrid of lenses and mirrors to improve resolution and using quartz lenses to overcome the radiation damage are foreseen. A TV system is used to observe the electron beam directly, where screens of Yttrium Aluminum Garnet YAG and OTR are used to produce a direct image of the beam. An overview of the existing systems, the measurements, the difficulties and future modifications will be presented. |
