  A lin­ear ac­cel­er­at­ing struc­ture with an av­er­age loaded gra­di­ent of 100 MV/m at X-Band fre­quen­cies has been demon­strated in the CLIC study. Re­cently, it has been pro­posed to use this struc­ture to drive an FEL linac. In con­trast to CLIC the linac would be pow­ered by kly­strons not by an RF source cre­ated by a drive beam. The main ad­van­tage of this pro­posal is achiev­ing the re­quired en­er­gies in a very short dis­tance, thus the fa­cil­ity would be rather com­pact. In this study, we pre­sent the struc­ture choice and con­cep­tual de­sign pa­ra­me­ters of a fa­cil­ity which could gen­er­ate laser pho­ton pulses below Angstrom. Shorter wave­lengths can also be reached with slightly in­creas­ing the en­ergy.

The Turk­ish Ac­cel­er­a­tor and Ra­di­a­tion Lab­o­ra­tory in Ankara (TARLA) which is pro­posed as a first fa­cil­ity of Turk­ish Ac­cel­er­a­tor Cen­ter (TAC) Pro­ject will op­er­ate two In­fra-Red Free Elec­tron Lasers (IR-FEL) cov­er­ing the range of 3-250 mi­crons. The fa­cil­ity will con­sist of an in­jec­tor fed by a thermionic tri­ode gun with two-stage RF bunch com­pres­sion, two su­per­con­duct­ing ac­cel­er­at­ing mod­ules op­er­at­ing at con­tin­u­ous wave (CW) mode and two in­de­pen­dent op­ti­cal res­onator sys­tems with dif­fer­ent un­du­la­tor pe­riod lengths. The elec­tron beam will also be used to gen­er­ate Bremsstrahlung ra­di­a­tion. The fa­cil­ity aims to be first user lab­o­ra­tory in the re­gion of Turkey in which both elec­tro­mag­netic ra­di­a­tion and par­ti­cles will be used. In this paper, we dis­cuss de­sign goals of the pro­ject and pre­sent sta­tus and road map of the pro­ject.
