The PAL-XFEL project has the baseline specification of FEL radiation down to 0.1 nm with a 10 GeV S-band normal conducting linac. To fulfill the requirement of the beam parameter, the S-band photoinjector was designed. Numerical optimizations for nominal and low charge operations are presented.

PAL-XFEL is designed to generate X-ray radiation in the range of 0.1 and 10 nm for users. The machine consists of a 10 GeV linear accelerator and five undulator beamlines. Electron beams are generated at a low emittance S-band photocathode RF gun and accelerated with an S-band normal conducting linac. Three hard X-ray beamlines will be located at the end of the linac. Electron beams for two soft X-ray beamlines will be switched at a medium energy. The project started in 2011 and the building construction is ongoing. Resent progress of the project and an update of the current progress are presented.

  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.

  A photocathode RF-gun for the X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) at the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) has been fabricated and tested at PAL. This RF-gun is based on a 1.6-cell cavity with dual-feed waveguide ports and two pumping ports. The RF gun was designed by PAL and POSTECH. The RF-gun has been successfully tested with a cathode electric field gradient up to 126MV/m at a repetition rate of 30 Hz. This paper reports the recent results on the beam test of the RF-gun with high power RF at the gun test facility. We present and discuss the measurements of the basic beam parameters such as charge, energy, energy spread, and transverse emittance.
