TUP072 | Orbital Angular Momentum from SASE | electron, radiation, FEL, undulator | 218 |
|
|||
Radiation with orbital angular momentum, OAM, has many applications such as in imaging systems and microscopic tweezers [1]. The feasibility of generating light with OAM in a free electron laser, FEL, from amplified shot noise in an electron beam is investigated using the FEL simulation code Puffin [2]. This may allow generation of OAM radiation at shorter wavelengths than currently available, as well as the opportunity to incorporate the technique with other SASE manipulation schemes such as mode locking [3].

WEP067 | Development and Commissioning of a Flip Coil System for Measuring Field Integrals | background, software, undulator, MMI | 484 |
|
|||
Funding: CAPES grant numbers 88881.134183/2016-01; DOE contract DE-AC02-76SF00515 in support of the LCLS-II project; and FAEPEX-UNICAMP grant number 519.292/94550-19. Many techniques for measuring magnetic fields are available for accelerator magnets. In general, methods based upon moving wires are suitable for characterizing field harmonics, and first and second field integrals. The flip coil moving wire technique stands out due to simplicity, speed, precision, and accuracy. We aimed to develop a reliable, fast and precise flip coil system capable of characterizing field integrals in the two transverse axes. The coil was a single turn loop made of insulated beryllium copper wire. The width of the loop was 5 mm. The approach of measuring second field integrals by changing the coil’s width at one of the ends was analyzed and included in the system. High-performance motorized stages performed angular and transverse positioning of the coil, while manual stages were used to stretch the wire, execute fine adjustments in its transverse position, and change coil’s geometry. Initial tests with the Earth’s field and also with a reference magnet of 126 Gauss-centimeter (G.cm) demonstrated that the system achieves repeatability of 0.2 G.cm for a 60-cm long coil. This work was carried out for the LCLS-II project at SLAC. |

THP001 | Steffen Hard-Edge Model for Quadrupoles with Extended Fringe-Fields at the European XFEL | FEL, focusing, optics, linac | 588 |
|
|||
For modeling of linear focusing properties of quadrupole magnets the conventional rectangular model is commonly used for the design and calculations of the linear beam optics for accelerators. At the European XFEL the quadrupole magnets are described using a more accurate Steffen hard-edge model. In this paper we discuss the application of the Steffen approach for the European XFEL quadrupoles and present the examination of the model with the orbit response matrix technique. | |||

THP002 | Beam Based Alignment in all Undulator Beamlines at European XFEL | FEL, undulator, alignment, electron | 592 |
|
|||
The Free Electron Laser European XFEL aims at delivering X-rays from 0.25 keV up to 25 keV out of three SASE undulators. A good overlap of photon and electron beams is indispensable to obtain good lasing performance, especially for the higher photon energies. Thus the quadrupole magnets in the undulators must be aligned as good as possible on a straight line. This can only be realized with a beam based alignment procedure. In this paper we will report on the method that was performed at the European XFEL. We will also discuss our results. | |||

THP033 | XFEL Isochronous Chicanes: Feasibility Study | dipole, FEL, electron, undulator | 658 |
|
|||
FEL schemes such as High-Brightness SASE [1] and Mode-Locking [2] require electron beam delays inserted between undulator sections. These schemes have been shown in simulations to perform most effectively when the electron beam delays are very close to isochronous, i.e. the first order longitudinal dispersion is very small. To minimise the disruption to the FEL process in the inter-undulator gaps, these delays must also be as compact as possible. In this paper we study the maximum longitudinal space that a delay chicane could occupy in an XFEL operating at 6 GeV before the peak power drops below a defined threshold, and we present a limit for the maximum longitudinal dispersion of the delay chicanes. We then present the optical designs of two chicanes that satisfy the requirements of length and isochronicity and show how these designs could be realised practically using small-aperture high-field quadrupoles.

THP036 | Microbunch Rotation for Hard X-Ray Beam Multiplexing | focusing, FEL, undulator, dipole | 665 |
|
|||
Funding: This work was supported by the Department of Energy, Laboratory Directed Research and Development program at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, under contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. Electron bunches in an undulator develop periodic density modulations, or microbunches, which enable the exponential gain of X-ray power in a SASE FEL. Many FEL applications could benefit from the ability to preserve microbunching through a dipole kick. For example, X-ray beam multiplexing can be achieved if electron bunches are kicked into separate beamlines and allowed to lase in a final undulator. The microbunches developed in upstream undulators, if properly rotated, will lase off axis, producing radiation at an angle offset from the initial beam axis. Microbunch rotation with soft X-rays was previously published and demonstrated experimentally [1], multiplexing LCLS into three X-ray beams. Additional 2018 data demonstrated multiplexing of hard X-rays. Here we describe efforts to reproduce these hard X-ray experiments using an analytical model and Genesis simulations. Our goal is to apply microbunch rotation to out-coupling from a cavity-based XFEL, (RAFEL/XFELO) [2]. [1] J. P. MacArthur et al., Physical Review X 8, 041036 (2018). [2] G. Marcus et al.

THP073 | Status Update for the High Gain High Efficiency TESSA-266 Experiment | undulator, laser, electron, experiment | 730 |
|
|||
Funding: DOE grant No. DE-SC0009914 and DE-SC0018559 Tapering Enhanced Stimulated Superradiant Amplification (TESSA) allows to increase the efficiency of Free Electron Laser (FEL) based radiation generation from ~0.1% to 10% by using intense seed laser pulses, strongly tapered undulators and prebunched electron beams [1]. Initial results validating this method have already been obtained at 10 µm wavelength at Brookhaven National Laboratory [2]. We will present the design of an experiment to demonstrate the TESSA scheme at high gain and shorter wavelength (266 nm) using the APS injector linac at Argonne National Labor-atory (ANL) to obtain conversion efficiency of up to 10%. Undulator and focusing lattice design, as well as beam dynamics and diagnostics for this experiment will be discussed. An extension of the experiment to include the possibility of multi-bunch linac operation and an optical cavity around the undulator to operate in the TESSO regime will also be presented [3]. [1] J.
