| MOPWA042 | Sub-fs Electron Bunch Generation Using Magnetic Compressor at SINBAD | 207 |
|
||
| In order to achieve high quality electron beams by laser-driven plasma acceleration with external injection, sub-fs bunches with a few fs arrival-time jitter are required. SINBAD (Short Innovative Bunches and Accelerators at DESY) is a proposed dedicated accelerator research and development facility at DESY. One of the baseline experiment at SINBAD is ARES (Accelerator Research Experiment at SINBAD), which will provide ultra-short electron bunches of 100 MeV to one or two connected beam lines. We present start-to-end simulation studies of sub-fs bunches generation at ARES using a magnetic compressor with a slit. In addition, the design of a dogleg with tunable R56 for the second beamline is also presented. | ||

| 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. | ||

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.

ARES is a planned linear accelerator for research and development in the field of production of ultra-short electron bunches. The goal of ARES is to produce low charge (0.2-50pC), ultra-short (from few fs to sub-fs) bunches, with improved arrival time stability (less than 10fs) for various applications, such as external injection for Laser Plasma Wake-Field acceleration. The ARES layout will allow to perform and compare different kind of conventional e-bunch compression techniques, such as pure velocity bunching*, hybrid velocity bunching (i.e. velocity bunching plus magnetic compression) and pure magnetic compression with the slit insertion**. This flexibility will allow to directly compare the different methods in terms of arrival time stability and local peak current. In this paper we present simulation results for the compression of an electron bunch with 0.5 pC charge. We compare the case of pure velocity bunching compression to the one of a hybrid compression using velocity bunching plus a magnetic compressor.

| WEPMA031 | Timing Jitter Studies for sub-fs Electron Bunch Generation at SINBAD | 2826 |
|
||
| Generation of ultra-short electron bunches with a few femtoseconds arrival-time jitter is the major challenge in plasma acceleration with external injection. Meanwhile, peak current stability is also one of the crucial factors for user experiments when the electron bunch is used for free-electron laser (FEL) generation. ARES (Accelerator Research Experiment at SINBAD) will consist of a compact S-band normal-conducting photo-injector providing ultra-short electron bunches of 100 MeV. We present bunch arrival-time jitter studies for two different compression schemes, velocity bunching and magnetic compression with a slit, at ARES with start-to-end simulations. Contributions from various jitter sources are quantified. | ||
