  The SINBAD facility (Short and INnovative Bunches and Accelerators at Desy) is foreseen to host various experiments in the field of production of ultra-short electron bunches and novel high gradient acceleration technique. The SINBAD linac, also called ARES (Accelerator Research experiment at SINBAD), will be a conventional S-band linear RF accelerator allowing the production of low charge (0.5 pC - few pC) ultra-short electron bunches (FWHM, length <= 1 fs - few fs) having 100 MeV energy. In this paper we present the current status of the technical design considerations, motivate the foreseen diagnostics for the RF gun commissioning and present examples of foreseen applications.

  Thermal simulation has been performed for an energy feedback normal conducting RF cavity. The cavity is going to be used as a fast actuator to regulate the arrival time of the electron bunches in fs level in FLASH. By measuring the arrival time jitter of one bunch in a bunch train, the designed cavity apply a correcting accelerating or decelerating voltage to the next bunches. The input power of the cavity is provided by a solid state amplifier and will be coupled to the cavity via a loop on the body. To achieve the fs level precision of the arrival time, the cavity should be able to provide accurate accelerating voltage with a precision of 300 eV. We performed thermal simulation to find out the temperature distribution of the cavity and make sure that heating will not affect its voltage precision. The simulation results show that by using two input loops the coupling constant will vary from 4.11 to 4.13 during the operation of the cavity which effect on the bunchs' arrival time would be less than 0.25 fs. While using just one input loop can lead to an error of about 1 fs.

  The program of low charge mode of operation is under development at free electron laser FLASH aiming in single mode radiation pulses. A short pulse photoinjector laser has been installed at FLASH allowing production of ultrashort electron pluses with moderate compression factor of the beam formation system. Here we present pilot results of free electron laser FLASH operating at the wavelength of 13.1 nm and driven by 70 pC electron bunches. Relevant theoretical analysis has been performed showing good agreement with experimental results.

  We want to summarize the beam line stabilization application with MTCA.4 electronics. Presented solution is based on the compact 2U MTCA.4 crate integrating sensor and actuator cards. The optical beam position sensor is based on quadrupole SI PIN photodiode connected to low cost AMC based FMC carrier equipped with ADC card. The optical beam position correction is done using picomotorized stages equipped with active piezo elements and high voltage RTM piezo driver. The data processing and digital feedback units are implemented using Spartan 6 FPGA. The control algorithm has been optimized for low latency and high precision computations. The control electronics performance has been tested using single beam line test stand consisted of commercial laser diode drivers, supported optics and motorized stages. The first results are demonstrated and future possible applications are briefly discussed.

  We want to summarize the single cavity regulation with MTCA.4 electronics. Presented solution is based on the one MTCA.4 crate integrating both RF field control and piezo tuner control systems. The RF field control electronics consists of RTM for cavity probes sensing and high voltage power source driving, AMC for fast data processing and digital feedback operation. The piezo control system has been setup with high voltage RTM Piezo driver and low cost AMC based FMC carrier. The communication between both control systems is performed using low latency link over the AMC backplane with data throughput up to the 3.125 Gbps. First results from CW operation of the RF field controller and the cavity active resonance control with the piezo tuners are demonstrated and briefly discussed.
