Sources based on High order Harmonics Generated in gases (HHG) with high power Ti:Sa lasers pulses represent promising candidates as seed for FEL amplifiers for several reasons, as spatial and temporal coherence, wavelength tunability and spectral range, which extends down to the nm wavelength scale. This communication describes the research work plan that is under implementation at the SPARC FEL facility in the framework of the EUROFEL programme. The main goal of the collaboration is to study and test the amplification and the FEL harmonic generation process of an input seed signal obtained as higher order harmonics generated both in crystals (400 nm and 266 nm) and in gases (266 nm, 160 nm, 114 nm). The SPARC FEL can be configured to test several cascaded FEL layouts that will be analysed in this contribution.

The SPARX project consists in an X-ray-FEL facility jointly supported by MIUR (Research Department of Italian Government), Regione Lazio, CNR, ENEA, INFN and Rome University Tor Vergata. It is the natural extension of the ongoing activities of the SPARC collaboration. The aim is the generation of electron beams characterized by ultra-high peak brightness at the energy of 1 and 2 GeV, for the first and the second phase respectively. The beam is expected to drive a single pass FEL experiment in the range of 13.5-6 nm and 6-1.5 nm, at 1 GeV and 2 GeV respectively, both in SASE and SEEDED FEL configurations. A hybrid scheme of RF and magnetic compression will be adopted, based on the expertise achieved at the SPARC high brightness photoinjector presently under commissioning at Frascati INFN-LNF Laboratories. The use of superconducting and exotic undulator sections will be also exploited. In this paper we report the progress of the collaboration together with start to end simulation results based on a combined scheme of RF compression techniques.

The SPARC Project is starting the commissioning of its photo-injector. RF gun, RF sources, RF network and control, power supplies, emittance meter, beam diagnostics and control to measure the RF gun beam are installed. The photocathode drive laser has been characterized in terms of pulse shape and quality. We expect to conduct beam measurements at RF gun exit in the next future and consequently to start the installation of accelerating sections. The design of the 12 m undulator for the FEL experiment has been completed and the first undulator section out of 6 is under construction: we expect to characterize it at Frascati ENEA laboratory within the next months. SPARC as a facility will host FEL experiments using SASE, seeding and non-linear resonant harmonics. Additional R&D on X-band and S-band structures for velocity bunching are in progress, as well as studies on new photocathode materials and exotic undulator designs. We also present studies on solenoid field defects, beam based alignments, exotic electron bunch production (blow-out of short laser pulses or intensity modulated laser pulses). The possible use of segmented superconducting micro-undulators will be discussed too.

The CNAO Resonance Sextupole Magnet Power Converter requirements for the Storage Ring of the CNAO Project are described together with performance and initial operating experience. In particular the achieved performances will be compared with the specification and the extensive modelling that was done during the design phase. Not only the tight required performances were emphasized during the design phase but also particular attention was put on reliability and minimization of the repairing time (MTTR). Some fundamental criteria, like component de-rating and standardisation, have also been taken into account during the component choice phase. All converters adopt the switching technology with full digital control and a common control interface, that, as for the other CNAO power converters, uses the same digital controller, under licence from the Diamond Light Source.

The operation of DAFNE, the 1.02 GeV c.m. e+e- collider of the Frascati National Laboratory with the KLOE detector, started in April 2004 has been concluded at the end of March 2006 with a total delivered luminosity of 2 fb-1 on the peak of the Phi resonance, 0.2 fb-1 off peak and a high statistics scan of the resonance. The best performances of the collider during this run have been a peak luminosity of 1.5 1032 cm-2s-1 and a daily delivered luminosity of 10 pb-1. The KLOE detector has been removed from one of the two interaction regions and its low beta section substituted with a standard magnetic structure, allowing for an easy vertical separation of the beams, while the FINUDA detector has been moved onto the second interaction point. Several improvements on the rings have also been implemented and are described together with the results of machine studies aimed at improving the collider efficiency and testing new operating conditions.

The SPARC photoinjector rf gun requires a solenoid immediately downstream for emittance compensation. The analysis of the measured solenoid magnetic maps shows the existence of multipolar components added to the pure solenoid field. The effect of these added fields on beam dynamics and possible correction schemes have been studied from the theoretical point of view and by numerical calculations based on PARMELA/TREDI codes. An accurate 3D numerical modelization by using CST EM Studio has been done, in order to investigate the source of these multipolar components and to suggest some design modifications aimed to reduce their magnitude. The results of this study are presented here.

The Project PLASMONX is well progressing into its design phase and has entered as well its second phase of procurements for main components. The project foresees the installation at LNF of a Ti:Sa laser system (peak power > 170 TW), synchronized to the high brightness electron beam produced by the SPARC photo-injector. The advancement of the procurement of such a laser system is reported, as well as the construction plans of a new building at LNF to host a dedicated laboratory for high intensity photon beam experiments (High Intensity Laser Laboratory). Several experiments are foreseen using this complex facility, mainly in the high gradient plasma acceleration field and in the field of mono-chromatic ultra-fast X-ray pulse generation via Thomson back-scattering. We present an innovative scheme of external injection of the SPARC beam into laser wake-field driven plasma waves. Detailed numerical simulations have been carried out to study the generation of short electron bunches, to be injected into plasma waves driven with adiabatically variable density in order to compress the bunch at injection and further accelerate it by preserving a small energy spread and good beam quality.

This paper will describe the design and simulations of the CNAO Dipole Power Converter rated 3000A / ±1600V. The Power Converter will feed the 16+1 synchrotron bending dipole magnets of the CNAO Storage Ring. The actual design confirms how the choice of a 24-pulses, 4 bridges series-parallel connected, active filter, bipolar voltage, meets the stringent requested technical specification ( 10-5 of maximum current for the output current residual ripple and setting resolution). The extensive modelling will also be presented. The design includes the strength of the topology design, component de-rating and component standardisation. As the other CNAO power converters, the Storage Ring Dipole Power Converter uses the same digital controller, under licence from the Diamond Light Source.

A hadron (Carbon/Proton) medical centre based on a synchrotron accelerator dedicated to the cure of deep tumours is under construction in Pavia (Italy) under the joint responsibility of CNAO (Centro Nazionale di Adroterapia Oncologica) and INFN (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare). This paper describes the power supply system, made up of about 200 units designed by LNF, and whose converters for the synchrotron ring and related low, medium and high energy transfer lines are now under construction by the major Italian companies. The power supplies requirements and electrical characteristics will be reported describing the most interesting topologies that fulfill the requested performances together with the main features of each power supply topology. Synchrotron dipoles, quadrupoles, sextupoles and resonance sextupole power supplies have tight characteristics with respect to precision class (current resolution, residual ripple, short-long term stability, etc.) that range from 5 ppm to 500 ppm, fast dynamical response with bandwidth up to some hundreds hertz, high power from tens of kW to many MW and output current ranging from hundreds of A to 3 kA.
