	Funding: This work is supported by Department of Energy, Office of High Energy Physics, under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. Generating the drive and witness bunch for collinear wakefield acceleration (CWFA) requires precise control of the longitudinal bunch shape for each bunch as well as the controlling their separation. The emittance exchange (EEX) beamline and a transverse mask can be used to achieve all of these requirements. First, this EEX-based method can independently control the longitudinal bunch shape of each bunches so that the drive bunch is shaped to generate a high transformer ratio while witness bunch is shaped to suppress its energy spread. Second, the timing jitter between the drive and witness bunch poses a serious limitation to the CWFA scheme but the EEX-based method eliminates this since both bunches are generated at the same time and share the exactly same beamline so there are no relative errors. In this paper, we confirm the feasibility of this EEX-based method for simultaneous generation with simulation for CWFA in a dielectric structure.

TUPAB075	Compact High Energy Electron Radiography System Based on Permanent Magnet Quadrupole	1494
	Z. Zhou, Y.-C. Du, W. Gai, W.-H. Huang, F. Li, T. Rui, C.-X. Tang TUB, Beijing, People's Republic of China W. Gai ANL, Argonne, Illinois, USA
	High energy electron radiography(HEER) is a promising diagnostic method for High Energy Density Physics (HEDP) or Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) owing to its capability of picosecond-nanometer spatio-temporal resolution, and is cost-effective in the meantime. A Compact HEER (CHEER) system based on Permanent Magnet Quadrupoles (PMQ) instead of conventional electromagnetic quadrupole is proposed. Its lattice design and beam optics optimization is finished, and experiment is to be carried out on Tsinghua Thomson X-ray source (TTX) beamline after PMQs fabrication and installation.

	Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357 We give an overview of the research program at the Argonne Wakefield Accelerator Facility (AWA), including some highlights of recent experiments. The AWA facility is dedicated to the study of beam physics and the development of technology for future particle accelerators. Two independent electron linacs are used to study wakefield acceleration: 70 MeV high charge electron bunches of up to 100 nC are used to drive wakefields, which can be probed by bunches originating from the same linac or from the 15 MeV linac. Recent Two-Beam-Acceleration (TBA) experiments operating at 11.7 GHz reached accelerating gradients of up to 150 MV/m. No indication of witness beam quality degradation was observed, and bunch charge was preserved during the acceleration process. Two identical TBA setups were used in series in order to demonstrate staging capabilities. Dielectric loaded structures operating at 26 GHz are also used in TBA experiments. Another main thrust of the research program consists of exploring and developing techniques to manipulate the phase space of electron bunches. These efforts include bunch shaping and the exchange of emittances in the transverse and the longitudinal phase spaces

	The Two-Beam Acceleration (TBA) is a modified approach to the structure-based wakefield acceleration which may meet the luminosity, efficiency, and cost requirement of a future linear collider. Recently, various TBA experiments have been carried out at the Argonne Wakefield Accelerator Facility (AWA). With X-band metallic power extractors and accelerators, a 70 MeV/m average accelerating gradient has been demonstrated in two stages while a 150 MeV/m gradient as well as 300 MW extracted power have been achieved in a single stage. In addition, low cost K-band dielectric power extractor and accelerator have also been developed. The preliminary results show power extraction of 55 MW and an average accelerating gradient of 28 MeV/m.

THPAB062	Preliminary Simulations on Chirpless Bunch Compression using Double-EEX Beamline	3862
	G. Ha POSTECH, Pohang, Kyungbuk, Republic of Korea M.E. Conde, D.S. Doran, W. Gai, J.G. Power ANL, Argonne, Illinois, USA
	Funding: This work is supported by Department of Energy, Office of High Energy Physics, under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. An emittance exchange (EEX) beamline can be used to compress an electron bunch via its transverse-to-longitudinal exchange mechanism. We are investigating this as an alternative to the normal magnetic chicane bunch compressor. The chicane method requires a longitudinal chirp before the chicane (since it relies on the path length difference of different energies) which results in an unwanted chirp after the compressor. Alternatively, the EEX method uses quadrupole magnets to compress the bunch. In this paper, we present preliminary simulations in preparation for a demonstration of chirp-less bunch compression using an EEX beamline at the Argonne Wakefield Accelerator facility.

	Funding: Work supported by the National Nature Science Foundation of China (NSFC Grants No.11475097) and the National Key Scientific Instrument and Equipment Development Project of China (Grants No. 2013YQ12034504) We have measured an intense THz radiation produced by a sub-picosecond, relativistic electron bunch passing through a dielectric loaded waveguide (DLW) at Tsinghua University accelerator beamline. The DLW was 3 cm long quartz tube with 900 'm inner diameter and 100 'm wall thickness metallized on the outside. Radiated energy of the THz pulse was measured to be proportional to the square of the effective charge. The end of the DLW was cut at an angle for efficient THz pulse extraction. Tens of 'J THz energy per pulse were measured outside the vacuum chamber with a calibrated Golay cell in the experiment. wangdan16@mail.tsinghua.edu.cn yanlx@mail.tsinghua.edu.cn

	Compared with S-band and C-band accelerating structures, X-band structures can run at a higher accelerating gradient and are more compact in size. In order to obtain higher electron energy in a limited space, a new X-band photo-injector operating at 11.424GHz has been designed at the Accelerator Laboratory of Tsinghua University. The structural design of the X-band photo-cathode RF gun and the accelerating structures as well as the beam dynamics simulation are presented in this paper, followed by the optimization of the structure based on the dispersed optimization experiment method(DOE). The results show that the design satisfies the working requirements with a small space occupied and a high beam quality.

	We present the study of positrons capturing dynamics in the wakefield of plasma generated either by a laser or electron beam. Only simplified linear wakefield models were used as first order approximation. By analysing the phase space and beam dynamics, we show that phase space for capturing is rather small, only high brightness beam with very short pulse length can be captured with reasonable rate for wakefields of 1 - 10 GeV/m and wave-length of 100 micron.

	Funding: Work supported by the National Nature Science Foundation of China (NSFC Grants No.11475097) and the National Key Scientific Instrument and Equipment Development Project of China (Grants No. 2013YQ12034504) We report the preliminary experimental results on the resonant excitation of THz wakefield in a multi-mode dielectric loaded waveguide (DLW) by electron bunch train at the Tsinghua University accelerator beamline. The bunch train with certain longitudinal periodicity was generated based on nonlinear longitudinal space charge oscillation [1]. By passing such bunch train through a multi-mode DLW, we observed selective excitation of the fifth longitudinal mode (TM05 mode) was resonantly excited. Future experiment plan is to tune the bunch train interval with a chicane in the beamline in order to selectively excite arbitrary mode for tunable THz radiation source with multi-mode DLWs. wangdan16@mail.tsinghua.edu.cn yanlx@mail.tsinghua.edu.cn

	Many recent experiments of the irradiation linacs produced at Tsinghua University indicate that beam power is limited by beam break up (BBU). Limits exist while the beam current or the pulse width is increased. In this paper, we illustrate the bream break up (BBU) phenomenon in the cases of both the 10MeV travelling-wave linac and 10MeV backward travelling-wave linac. The higher order modes in the linacs are analysed and the wake fields are calculated both with theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. Also, the beam dynamics is studied on the basis of the wakefield results to find a BBU threshold in these structures.

	An X-band (11.424 GHz) high-power RF station is being built for Tsinghua Thomson scattering X-ray Source (TTX). The station aims to feed several X-band accelerating structures working at a high gradient of 80 MV/m. An X-band pulse compressor is designed to compress the RF pulse from 1.5 us to 100 ns and to generate more than 250 MW peak power from a 50MW klystron. This pulse compressor implements a resonate cavity housing the HE11-mode as the energy storage cavity, with a high quality factor Q of more than 10⁵. The detailed design of the high-Q cavity as well as the dedicate couplers of this pulse compressor are present in this work.

We present the study of positrons capturing dynamics in the wakefield of plasma generated either by a laser or electron beam. Only simplified linear wakefield models were used as first order approximation. By analysing the phase space and beam dynamics, we show that phase space for capturing is rather small, only high brightness beam with very short pulse length can be captured with reasonable rate for wakefields of 1 - 10 GeV/m and wave-length of 100 micron.

We report the preliminary experimental results on the resonant excitation of THz wakefield in a multi-mode dielectric loaded waveguide (DLW) by electron bunch train at the Tsinghua University accelerator beamline. The bunch train with certain longitudinal periodicity was generated based on nonlinear longitudinal space charge oscillation [1]. By passing such bunch train through a multi-mode DLW, we observed selective excitation of the fifth longitudinal mode (TM05 mode) was resonantly excited. Future experiment plan is to tune the bunch train interval with a chicane in the beamline in order to selectively excite arbitrary mode for tunable THz radiation source with multi-mode DLWs.

Many recent experiments of the irradiation linacs produced at Tsinghua University indicate that beam power is limited by beam break up (BBU). Limits exist while the beam current or the pulse width is increased. In this paper, we illustrate the bream break up (BBU) phenomenon in the cases of both the 10MeV travelling-wave linac and 10MeV backward travelling-wave linac. The higher order modes in the linacs are analysed and the wake fields are calculated both with theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. Also, the beam dynamics is studied on the basis of the wakefield results to find a BBU threshold in these structures.

An X-band (11.424 GHz) high-power RF station is being built for Tsinghua Thomson scattering X-ray Source (TTX). The station aims to feed several X-band accelerating structures working at a high gradient of 80 MV/m. An X-band pulse compressor is designed to compress the RF pulse from 1.5 us to 100 ns and to generate more than 250 MW peak power from a 50MW klystron. This pulse compressor implements a resonate cavity housing the HE11-mode as the energy storage cavity, with a high quality factor Q of more than 10⁵. The detailed design of the high-Q cavity as well as the dedicate couplers of this pulse compressor are present in this work.
