  A beam profile monitor utilizing the technological advances in fiber optic manufacturing to obtain micron level resolution is under development at RadiaBeam Technologies. This fiber-optic profiling device would provide a low cost, turn-key solution with nominal operational supervision and requires minimal beamline real estate. Preliminary results of Cherenkov light generation in fiber is presented.

  Recent development of MW peak power THz sources from efficient optical rectification of broadband IR pulses by pulse front tilting has made available laser locked single cycle THz pulses suitable for compression and laser-synchronization of photoinjector generated subpicosecond electron beams. Three dimensional simulations have shown that a waveguided 8 pulse THz train can be used to interact with a sub picoseconds electron beam in an undulator to achieve compression and laser synchronization. We present a THz pulse train source currently under development at UCLA PBPL as well as detailed 3 dimensional simulations including the effect of the interaction on transverse beam quality.

We present the construction and measurement details of a strongly tapered helical undulator for the Rubicon Inverse Free Electron Laser (IFEL) experiment. Results of the magnetic field measurements are presented, and these are used to produce simulations of the expected performance of the experiment. Finally, a study of the tolerances on the input parameters of the experiment is presented.
