  Electron beam collimation in the SwissFEL is required for protection of the undulators against radiation damage and demagnetization. The design for the SwissFEL collimation for the hard X-ray undulator (Aramis) includes transverse collimation in the final accelerating linac sections, plus an energy collimator in a post-linac chicane. The collimation system must provide efficient protection of the undulator for various machine modes providing varied final beam energy to the undulator. The performance of the transverse and energy collimation design is studied in simulations including evaluation of the transverse collimation for various beam energies and the effect of grazing particles on the energy collimator. Collimator wakefields are also considered.

  The ALICE facility is an energy recovery test accelerator whose applications include an IR-FEL and THz generation. Of primary importance to the performance of the main ALICE applications is the understanding and control of the longitudinal dynamics, which are less amenable to measurement than the transverse. The longitudinal dynamics of the beam evolve are studied in simulation and experiment in several areas of the machine. Simulations of the low energy injector where space charge and velocity bunching may occur are presented. Path length measurement using time-of-arrival monitors are carried out.

  An Electron Beam Test Facility (EBTF) is being developed at Daresbury Laboratory to provide the beam for industrial applications and as a front end of future light source facility test under consideration. The RF photoinjector will deliver ~6 MeV beam to industrial users* and will serve as an injector for the future light source facility under consideration at Daresbury**. The Photoinjector design in first phase consists of 2.5 cell RF gun (on loan from Strathclyde) to be driven by Ti:S laser. The photo injector design is aimed to deliver bunches with 10-250 pC bunch charge at low transverse emittances and short bunch lengths. The beam transport optics design described in this paper includes a dedicated diagnostics section capable of measuring ultra short and ultra low emittance bunches and transport to two user areas.

  A European proposal is under preparation for the Compton gamma-ray Source of ELI-NP. In the Romanian pillar of ELI (the European Extreme Light Infrastructure) an advanced gamma-ray beam is foreseen, coupled to two 10 PW laser systems. The photons will be generated by Compton back-scattering in the collision between a high quality electron beam and a high power laser. A European collaboration formed by INFN, Univ. of Roma La Sapienza, Orsay-LAL of IN2P3, Univ. de Paris Sud XI and ASTeC at Daresbury, is preparing a TDR exploring the feasibility of a machine expected to achieve the Gamma-ray beam specifications: energy tunable between 1 and 20 MeV, narrow bandwidth (0.3%) and high spectral density, 104 photons/sec/eV. We will describe the lay-out of the 720 MeV RF Linac and the collision laser with the associated optical cavity, as well as the optimized beam dynamics to achieve maximum phase space density at the collision, taking into account beam loading and beam break-up due to the acceleration of long bunch trains. The predicted gamma-ray spectra will be evaluated as the gamma photons collimators background. An option for electron bunches recirculation will also be illustrated.

TUPPD068 Design of the Production and Measurement of Ultra-Short Electron Bunches from an S-band RF Photoinjector 1560

  The Electron Beam Test Facility (EBTF) is planned for installation in late 2012 at Daresbury Laboratory. An S-band RF photoinjector provides ultrashort, low emittance electron bunches up to 6 MeV. A suite of diagnostics has been designed to fully characterise the bunches. A particular focus has been on producing and measuring bunch lengths less than 100 fs. This can be achieved with a multi-cell standing wave S-band transverse deflecting cavity. Operating such a cavity with low energy electrons provides certain challenges which are discussed in this paper with respect to beam dynamic simulations.

  A new single pass national FEL test facility, CLARA, is proposed to be constructed at Daresbury Laboratory in the UK. The aim of CLARA is to develop a normal conducting test accelerator able to generate longitudinally and transversely bright electron bunches and to use these bunches in the experimental production of stable, synchronized, ultra short photon pulses of coherent light from a single pass FEL with techniques directly applicable to the future generation of light source facilities. In addition the facility will be an ideal test bed for demonstrating innovative technologies such as high repetition rate normal conducting RF linacs and advanced undulator designs. This paper will describe the design of CLARA, pointing out the flexible features that will be incorporated to allow multiple novel FEL schemes to be proven.

  Recent UK government funding has facilitated the implementation of a unique accelerator test facility which can provide enabling infrastructures targeted for the development and testing of novel and compact accelerator technologies, specifically through partnership with industry and aimed at addressing applications for medicine, health, security, energy and industrial processing. The infrastructure provision on the Daresbury Science and Innovation Campus (DSIC) will permit research into areas of accelerator technologies which have the potential to revolutionise the cost, compactness and efficiency of such systems. The main element of the infrastructure will be a high performance and flexible electron beam injector facility, feeding customised state-of-the-art testing enclosures and associated support infrastructure. The facility operating parameters and implementation status will be described, along with primary areas of commercialised technology development opportunities.
