	A hard X-ray self-seeding utilizing time-delayed forward Bragg diffracted photons from thin diamond crystals has been successfully commissioned in a broad spectral range (3.5~14.4 keV), and will be soon provided to user experiments. In the self-seeded mode, the spectral bandwidth is typically 0.2~0.5 eV FWHM in contrast to SASE mode, in which the spectral bandwidth is around 20 eV. This implies that the seeded FEL can be a single longitudinal mode laser since the number of longitudinal mode is 100~200 in the SASE operation. In this case, the photon number of filtered FEL is expected to be fluctuated 100% from the narrow bandwidth filtering out of random and spiky SASE spectra. We found that our energy stability of electron bunches (10^-4) do not degrade much the seeding performance and the large variation of the seeded FEL intensity will be from the seeding probability. The advantages of 30 um thin diamond crystal and diagnostic tool for the self-seeding will be also presented.

TUP028	Power Variations of an X-ray FEL Oscillator in Saturation	114
	R.R. Lindberg, K. Kim ANL, Lemont, Illinois, USA
	Funding: Work supported by U.S. Dept. of Energy Office of Sciences under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. Basic FEL theory predicts that the fractional power fluctuations of an ideal oscillator in steady state should be given by the ratio of the spontaneous power in the oscillator bandwidth to that stored in the cavity at saturation. For the X-ray FEL oscillator with its narrow bandwidth Bragg crystal mirrors, this ratio is typically a few parts per million, but some simulations have shown evidence of power oscillations on the percent level. We show that this is not related to the well-known sideband instability, but rather is purely numerical and can be eliminated by changing the particle loading. We then briefly discuss to what extent variations in electron beam arrival time may degrade the power stability.

TUP037	Optimization of the Transverse Gradient Undulator (TGU) for Application in a Storage Ring Based XFELO	131
	Y.S. Li University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, USA K. Kim, R.R. Lindberg ANL, Lemont, Illinois, USA
	Funding: U.S. Dept. of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357 The stringent energy spread requirement of the XFELO poses a challenge for its application in storage rings. One way to overcome this is by using a transverse gradient undulator (TGU) [1]. The TGU gain formula was discussed previously [2]. In this paper, we begin by reviewing the analytical 3D gain formula derived from the gain convolution formula. Following that, we apply numerical optimization to investigate the optimal beam and field parameters for maximal TGU gain. We found that a small emittance ratio (i.e. "flat beam" configuration) has a strong positive impact on TGU gain, as well as other patterns in the optimal parameters. [1] T. I. Smith et al., J. Appl.

TUP038	Axial Symmetry in Spontaneous Undulator Radiation for XFELO Two-Bunch Experiment	134
	Y.S. Li University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, USA K. Kim, R.R. Lindberg ANL, Lemont, Illinois, USA
	Funding: U.S. DOE, Office of Science, Office of BES, under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357 and National Science Foundation under Award No. PHY-1549132, the Center for Bright Beams. A well known discrepancy exists between 2D and 3D FEL simulation codes with respect to the radiation field intensity prior to the exponential gain regime [1]. This can be qualitatively explained by the fact that the 3D field representation preserves many more modes than does the axisymmetric field solved for by a 2D code. In this paper, we seek to develop an analytical model that quantifies this difference. We begin by expanding the spontaneous undulator radiation field as a multipole series, whose lowest order mode is axisymmetric. This allows us to calculate the difference in predicted intensity. Next, we confirm these results with numerical calculation and existing FEL codes GINGER and GENESIS. Finally, we discuss the implications of this study with respect to the XFELO two-bunch experiment to be conducted at LCLS-II. [1] Z. Huang and K.-J.

	One solution for producing longitudinally coherent FEL pulses is to store and recirculate the output of an amplifier in an X-ray cavity so that the X-ray pulse can interact with following fresh electron bunches over many passes. The X-ray FEL oscillator (XFELO) and the X-ray regenerative amplifier FEL (XRAFEL) concepts use this technique and rely on the same fundamental ingredients to realize their full capability. Both schemes require a high repetition rate electron beam, an undulator to provide FEL gain, and an X-ray cavity to recirculate and monochromatize the radiation. The shared infrastructure, complementary performance characteristics, and potentially transformative FEL properties of the XFELO and XRAFEL have brought together a joint Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) and SLAC National Laboratory (SLAC) collaboration aimed at enabling these schemes at LCLS-II. We present plans to install a rectangular X-ray cavity in the LCLS-II undulator hall and perform experiments employing 2-bunch copper RF linac accelerated electron beams. This includes performing cavity ring-down measurements and 2-pass gain measurements for both the low-gain XFELO and the high-gain RAFEL schemes.
