Funding: This work was primarily supported by DOE under DE-FG-99ER41104. The work of DB and SL was partially supported by NSF grant PHY 0855678 to the University of New Mexico. We continue our study* of CSR from a bunch moving on an arbitrary curved trajectory. In that study we developed an accurate 2D CSR Vlasov-Maxwell code (VM3@A) and applied it to a four dipole chicane bunch compressor. Our starting point now is the well-established paraxial approximation** with boundary conditions for a perfectly conducting vacuum chamber with uniform cross-section. This is considerably different from our previous approach* where we calculated the fields from an integral over history, using parallel plate boundary conditions. In this study, we present a Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method for the paraxial approximation equations. Our basic tool is a MATLAB DG code on a GPU using MATLAB's gpuArray; the code was developed by one of us (DB). We discuss our results in the context of previous work and outline future applications for DG, including a Vlasov-Maxwell study. * See PRST-AB 12 080704 (2009) and Proceedings from ICAP2012 TUSDC2. ** See PRST-AB 7 054403 (2004), PRST-AB 12 104401 (2009) and Jpn.

MOPSO65 | Suppression of Wakefield Induced Energy Spread Inside an Undulator Through Current Shaping | wakefield, undulator, electron, FEL | 108 |
|
|||
Funding: This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231. Wakefields from resistive wall and surface roughness inside an undulatory can cause significant growth of beam energy spread and limit the performance of x-ray FEL radiation. In this paper, we propose a method to mitigate such energy modulation by appropriately conditioning the electron beam current profile. Numerical example and potential applications will also be discussed. |

MOPSO73 | Suface Roughness Wakefield in FEL Undulator | wakefield, undulator, electron, FEL | 127 |

Among several wakefield models for the FEL undulator vacuum chamber a simple sinusoidal wall modulation with a small ratio of height to wavelength is especially attractive because of its simplicity [1]. The model neglects a so called resonant mode wakefield and has an (integrable) singularity at the origin which makes difficult its use in practical simulations. In this work we generalize the longitudinal wake of a sinusoidally modulated wall to include the effect of the resonant mode. This also removes the singularity of the wake at the origin. The new wake is used to evaluate the roughness wakefield effect in the undulator of SwissFEL.
