The removal of residual chirp in XFELs is of paramount importance for efficient lasing. Although current S-band XFELs remove the unwanted residual chirp using off-crest acceleration after the final bunch compressor, this technique is not possible for XFELs with soft X-ray lines as there are no further accelerating structures. The off-crest dechirping technique is also expensive for future superconducting XFELs. In response, RadiaBeam Systems presents its work, building upon the theoretical work of Bane and Stupakov*, in RF-free residual chirp mitigation using only passive techniques. Beam-induced longitudinal wakefields are produced with opposing corrugated plates which allow for an entirely RF-free chirp removal. Theory, engineering, and experimental results are presented.

  Fermilab's Integrable Optics Test Accelerator (IOTA) is an electron storage ring designed for testing advanced accelerator physics concepts, including implementation of nonlinear integrable beam optics and experiments on optical stochastic cooling. In this report we describe the contribution of RadiaBeam Technologies to the IOTA project which includes nonlinear magnet engineering, production and measurement.

  RadiaBeam Technologies is in the process of developing bulk textured dysprosium as a potential replacement for CoFe steel as undulator poles. For cryogenic undulators that can be cooled below the ferromagnetic transition of dysprosium, textured dysprosium offers potential increase in the peak field of the undulator. Here we report on the progress of the project, including magnetization curves for the material and simulations of a short period undulator utilizing the material.
