An injector designed for low emittance beam generation as well we high repetition rate and more reliable operation is under development at PAL. By adopting a coaxial high power RF coupler at the gun exit, the gun solenoid can be positioned at an optimum location for low emittance and the cooling water channels can fully surround the gun cavity cylinder for high cooling capacity. With an exchangeable photocathode plug, high quantum efficiency cathode can be used for reducing the drive-laser power requirement and a damaged cathode can be easily replaced with a fresh one. Injector beam dynamics optimization with this gun is presented.

  Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) is starting the X-ray Free Electron Laser of 10 GeV. PAL-XFEL has the hard X-ray and soft X-ray branches. The linac contains dipole magnets, quadrupole magnets and corrector magnets. The kicker magnet followed by the septum magnet is needed to extract the beam from the linac to the soft X-ray undulator line. In this presentation, we describe the design and analysis of the magnets.

  The PAL XFEL lattice is a three bunch compressor lattice (3-BC lattice) with a hard x-ray FEL line at the end of 10-GeV linac and a switch line at 3-GeV point for soft X-ray FEL line. The 3-BC lattice is chosen to minimize emittance growth due to CSR. Robustness of beam optics is verified with initial conditions far from ideal like asymmetric current profile, optics mismatch, nonlinear energy chirp.

  As a part of the preparation plan of PAL-XFEL, Injector Test Facility (ITF) has been constructed and now required beamline components are being installed for the test of injector system. ITF components includes RF gun, two accelerating columes, solenoids and basic diagnostic components such as spectrometers, quad scan system, BPMs, wire scanner, etc. Main diagnostics will be installed until October this year and deflecting cavity and laser heater will be installed next year. This facility will generate 135 MeV electron beam with the emittance under 0.5 mm-mrad. Simulation for the optimized operation of the ITF has been carried out with ASTRA code and its results are given in this paper.

  We are developing an S-band photocathode RF-gun for the X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) at the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL). This RF-gun is a 1.6-cell RF-gun with dual-feed waveguide ports and two pumping ports. We have done the complete RF and thermal analysis of a new gun. The new RF-gun is designed to operate at a maximum field gradient of 130MV/m with a RF pulse width of 3 μs, a repetition rate of 120Hz. In this paper we present features and RF simulation results and thermal analysis results.

  Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) is developing 10 GeV, 0.1 nm SASE based FEL for high power, short pulse X-ray coherent photon sources named PAL-XFEL. At the first stage PAL-XFEL needs two undulator lines for photon source. PAL is developing undulator magnetic structure based on EU-XFEL design. The hard X-ray undulator features 7.2 mm min magnetic gap, and 5.0 m magnetic length with maximum effective magnetic field larger than 0.908 T to achieve 0.1nm radiation at 10 GeV electron energy. Soft X-ray undulator system has 8.3 mm undulator gap with 33.4 mm magnetic period. In this report, the status of the undulator project including mechanical design, magnetic design, phase shifter, quadrupole design are summarized.
