TI - Development of a Button BPM for the LCLS-II project J2 - Proc. of IBIC2014 AB - A high sensitivity button BPM is under development for a linac section of the LCLS-II project. Since the LCLS-II linac will operate with bunch charge as low as 10 pC, we analyse various options for pickup button and feedthrough in order to maximize the BPM output signal at low charge regime. As a result the conceptual BPM design is proposed including an analytical estimation of the BPM performance as well as numerical simulation with CST Particle Studio and ANSYS HFSS. Both numerical methods show a good agreement of BPM output signals for various design parameters. Finally we describe the signal processing scheme and the electronics we are going to use.
