  The PAL XFEL is a 0.1-nm hard X-ray FEL project starting from 2011 to finish in 2014, which aims at achieving higher photon flux than 1012 photons/pulse at 0.1 nm using a 10 GeV electron linac. The PAL XFEL is designed to have a hard x-ray undulator line at the end of linac and a branch line at 2.65 GeV point for soft X-ray undulator line. The three bunch compressor lattice (3-BC) is chosen to minimize emitance growth due to CSR and minimize correlated energy spread. The 3-BC lattice makes it possible to operate soft X-ray FEL undulator line simultaneously and independently from hard X-ray FEL undulator line.

We design a C-band standing-wave accelerating structure for an X-ray source of the imaging and medical applications. It is capable of producing 6-MeV, 100-mA pulsed electron beams which is focused by less than 1.5 mm without external magnets. As an RF source, we use peak 1.5-MW magnetron with duty factor of 0.08%. The accelerating structure is a bi-periodic and on-axis-coupled structure with a built-in bunching section, which consists 3 bunching cells, 13 normal cells and a coupler cell. It operated with π/2-mode standing-waves. The bunching section is designed to enhance the RF phase focusing in order to achieve 1.2-mm beam spot size. Each cavity is designed with the MWS code to maximize the effective shunt impedance within 3.5% inter-cell coupling. In this paper, we present design details of RF cavities and the beam dynamics simulation by the PARMELA code.

There are a large number of variables and objectives in design of XFEL linac lattices. Recently, most of accelerator physics field, are applying the multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) for these kinds of problems. MOGA was applied to the PAL XFEL linac lattice design. Longitudinal position of all components was fixed before applying MOGA. RF parameters of RF cavities and bending angles of bunch compressors are selected as variables. Various beam parameters computed by ELEGANT were used as objectives. By using MOGA, new linac lattice designs with 2 and 3 bunch compressors was generated and their beam properties are presented in this paper.
