The Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin is constructing the Energy Recovery Linac Prototype BERLinPro, a demonstration facility for the science and technology of ERLs for future light source applications. BERLinPro is designed to accelerate a high current (100 mA, 50 MeV), high brilliance (norm. emittance below 1 mm mrad) cw electron beam. We report on the project status. This includes the completion of the building and the installation of the first accelerator components as well as the assembly of the SRF gun and GunLab beam diagnostics, which are now ready for commissioning.

  High brightness beams provided by linac-based accelerators require several measures to preserve their high quality and to avoid instabilities, where the mitigation of the impact of residual ions is one of these measures, in particular if high repetition rates are aimed for. Over the last decade three ion-clearing strategies: clearing electrodes, bunch gaps and beam shaking have been applied to counteract the degrading impact of the ions on the electron beam. Currently, their merit as clearing strategies for next generation high brightness accelerators such as energy recovery linacs (ERLs) are under intensive investigations with both simulations and measurements. In this paper, we present numerical studies for the behavior of ions generated by electron bunch passages within the field of electrodes. The objective is to investigate the ion motion towards the electrodes and to study under which circumstances and up to which ratio, equilibrium between ion generation and ion-clearing is established. Hereby several ion species and shapes of electrodes are considered with typical parameters of future high current linacs.
