TUPWA028 | Simulation Results of the Beam Transport of Ultra-Short Electron Bunches in Existing Beam Transfer Lines to Sinbad | 1466 |
|
||
SINBAD, the upcoming accelerator R&D facility at DESY, will host multiple independent experiments on the production and acceleration of ultra-short bunches including plasma wakefield experiments. As a possible later upgrade the option to transport higher energy electrons (up to 800 MeV) or positrons (up to 400 MeV) from the existing DESY Linac 2 to the facility is studied. Though existing a possible connection using e.g. a part of the DESY synchrotron as a transfer line and other currently unused transfer-line, these machines were not designed for the desired longitudinal bunch compression and high peak current required by e.g. beam driven plasma wake-field experiments. Simulation results illustrate the modifications to the current layout that would have to be implemented and the corresponding achievable beam parameters are given. | ||

TUPWA029 | ARES: Accelerator Research Experiment at SINBAD | 1469 |
|
||
ARES is a planned linear accelerator for R&D for production of ultra-short electron bunches. It will be hosted at the SINBAD facility, at DESY in Hamburg*. The goal of ARES is to produce low charge (0.2-50pC), ultra-short (from few fs to sub-fs) bunches, with high arrival time stability (less than 10fs) for various applications, such as external injection for Laser Plasma Wake-Field acceleration**. The baseline layout of the accelerator foresees an S-band photo-injector which compresses low charge electron bunches via velocity bunching and accelerates them to 100 MeV energy. In the second stage, it is planned to install a third S-band accelerating cavity to reach 200 MeV as well as two X-band cavities: One for the linearization of the longitudinal phase space (subsequently allowing an improved bunch compression) and another one as a transverse deflecting cavity for longitudinal beam diagnostics. Moreover a magnetic bunch compressor is envisaged allowing to cut out the central slice of the beam*** or hybrid bunch compression.

TUPWA032 | Progress in the Injector Upgrade of the LINAC II at DESY | 1479 |
|
||
A new injection system is under development for the LINAC II at DESY to improve the reliability of the machine and mitigate the radiological problem due to electron losses at energy of hundreds of MeV. It consists of a 100 kV triode DC gun, a 2.998 GHz pre-buncher, a novel 2.998 GHz hybrid buncher, and the dedicated beam transport and diagnostic elements. As the key components, the pre-buncher and the hybrid buncher realize a two-stage velocity bunching process including the ballistic bunching and the phase space rotation. Therefore, they produce a certain number of well-bunched 5 MeV micro-bunches from the input 2 ns-50 ns electron pulse for the downstream LINAC II. The overall upgrade plan, developments of the critical components, as well as the latest beam test results will be reported. | ||
