|
|||
Funding: Ankara University Turkish Accelerator and Radiation Laboratory in Ankara (TARLA) facility is proposed as an IR FEL and Bremsstrahlung facility as the first facility of Turkish Accelerator Center (TAC) in Golbasi Campus of Ankara University. TARLA is proposed to generate oscillator mode FEL in 3-250 microns wavelengths range and Bremsstrahlung radiation. It will consist of normal conducting injector system with 250 keV beam energy and two superconducting RF accelerating modules in order to accelerate the beam 15-40 MeV. The electron beam will be in both continuous wave (CW) and macro pulse (MP) modes. The bunch charge will be limited by 77pC and the average beam current will be 1 mA. To detect electron beam position inside beam line, BPM (Beam Position Monitor) has to use through beam line. Wall current monitor based systems button type TARLA BPM are briefly mentioned. In this study, simulation results of the calculations in CST, production and test studies for button type TARLA BPMs are presented. Mechanical and electronic designs, antenna simulations, and the latest testing procedures are determined for button type BPMs. |

Radio frequency deflectors are widely used for time-resolved beam energy, emittance and radiation profile measurements in modern free electron laser facilities. Here, we present the beam dynamics aspects of the deflecting cavity of SXFEL user facility. With a targeted time resolution around 10 fs, it is expected to be an important tool for time-resolved machine studies for SXFEL user facility. | |||

MOPG52 | Simulation of THz Streak Camera Performance for Femtosecond FEL Pulse Length Measurement | electron, simulation, photon, laser | 176 |
|
|||
Measurement of the temporal duration of FEL pulses is important both for the operators to monitor the performance of the machine and the users performing pump-probe measurements with FEL beam. The light-field streak camera is a promising methods for the photon pulse length measurement that uses the electric field of an IR/THz laser to streak the photoelectrons*. This contribution presents a simulation of the performance of a streak camera using a single-cycle THz pulse**. The simulation recreates the photoionization process and generates electron spectra in presence of the THz field and without it. Using these spectra the photon pulse lengths are calculated and compared to the initial values. Most of the parameters used in the simulation are chosen based on experiments performed earlier.*** This contribution presents the simulation method and the obtained results. It validates the pulse length calculation analysis method and estimates the expected measurement accuracy and precision for the THz streak camera measurement technique. The simulations were done for different FEL pulse lengths ranging from about 1 fs to 40 fs both in soft and hard X-ray range.

MOPG66 | Design and Experimental Tests of the SwissFEL Wire-Scanners | electron, vacuum, operation, radiation | 225 |
|
|||
The SwissFEL wire-scanner (WSC) composes of an in-vacuum beam-probe - motorized by a stepper motor - and an out-vacuum pick-up of the wire-signal. In SwissFEL, WSCs will absolve two main tasks: high precision measurement of the beam profile for determining the beam emittance as a complement to view-screens; routine monitoring of the beam profile under FEL operations. In order to fulfill the aforementioned tasks, the design of the in-vacuum component of the SwissFEL WSCs followed the guidelines to ensure a mechanical stability of the scanning wire at the micrometer level as well as a significative containment of the radiation-dose release along the machine thanks to the choice of metallic wires with low density and Atomic number. Beam-loss monitors have been suitably designed to ensure a sufficient sensitivity and dynamics to detect signals from scanned beams in the charge range 10-200 pC. The design, the prototyping phases, the bench and electron-beam tests - performed at SITF (Paul Scherrer Institut) and FERMI (Elettra, Trieste) - of the entire SwissFEL WSC set-up will be presented.

WEPG17 | BATCH APPLICATIONS OF DIGITAL BPM PROCESSORS FROM THE SINAP | cavity, FPGA, hardware, interface | 658 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by National Natural Science Foundation (No.11305253, 11575282) During the past several years a digital BPM (DBPM) processor has been developed at the SINAP. After continuous development and optimization, the processor has been finalized and has come to batch application on the signal processing of cavity BPMs and stripline BPMs at the Dalian Coherent Light Source (DCLS) and the Shanghai Soft X-ray FEL (SXFEL). Tests have been done to evaluate the performances, such as the noise level, the SNR and the cross talk. The system resolution of the cavity and stripline BPMs can achieve 1um and 10um respectively. The test results on the Shanghai Deep-Ultra-Violet (SDUV) and the DCLS will be introduced. |

WEPG52 | Laser Arrival Time Measurement and Correction for the SwissFEL Lasers | laser, timing, gun, experiment | 763 |
|
|||
SwissFEL will ultimately produce sub-fs X-ray pulses. Both the photo-injector laser and the pump lasers used for the experimental end stations therefore have tight requirements for relative arrival time to the machine and the X-rays. The gun laser oscillator delivers excellent jitter performance at ~20fs integrated from 10Hz-10MHz. The Yb:CaF2 regenerative amplifier, with an over 1km total propagation path, calls for active control of the laser arrival time. This is achieved by balanced cross-correlation against the oscillator pulses and a translation stage before amplification. The experimental laser, based on Ti:sapphire laser technology will use a spectrally resolved cross-correlator to determine relative jitter between the optical reference and the laser, with fs resolution. To be able to perform fs resolution pump-probe measurements the laser has to be timed with the X-rays with <10fs accuracy. These systems will be integrated into the machine timing and complemented by electron bunch and X-ray timing tools. Here we present the overall concept and the first results obtained on the existing laser systems. | |||

THAL01 | PALM Concepts and Considerations | electron, laser, photon, free-electron-laser | 848 |
|
|||
The Photon Arrival and Length Monitor (PALM), a THz streak camera device developed by PSI for non-destructive hard x-ray measurements of photon pulse length and arrival time versus a pump laser*, was brought to the SACLA XFEL** in Japan in a cross-calibration temporal diagnostics campaign after an initial experiment where only the PALM was being used***. The device was used with 9 keV pink beam and a 9.0 and 8.8 keV two-color mode, successfully measuring the arrival time and pulse lengths for several different FEL operating conditions. The device has shown itself to be very robust and transparent to the FEL beam, with temporal characterization accuracies of 15 fs or better. SwissFEL will employ two such devices at the end stations for use by both operators and experimenters to improve the operation of the FEL and to better interpret experimental data. This report presents the PALM and its uses and capabilities, and discusses the results from the SACLA cross-calibration experiments.
