Both the dynamics and the architecture of an energy recovery linac are primarily determined by the longitudinal match. This match can be manipulated by both the magnetic lattice and the RF systems. Here we will present a few examples of systems and the longitudinal solutions found for each. The first application is a free-electron laser application where a short bunch and high peak current are required. The laser increases the energy spread and lowers the energy and this must be compensated in the ERL design. The second application is for an internal target experiment where the need was for small energy spread rather than a short bunch. The third example is for an electron cooler where the bunch must be very long with extremely small energy spread. The beam disruption due to cooling is small but CSR and microbunching effects are a real challenge. In the FEL, the longitudinal matching is mainly accomplished via lattice matching while in the cooler application the RF system is the dominant method to control the phase space. The internal target can be addressed either way.
