  Beam halo collimation is of great importance for the high repetition rate operation at the European XFEL and for the future CW machines. At the European XFEL several different types of collimators are installed at different locations of the beam line, which include the gun collimators, the bunch compressor collimators, and the main and supplementary collimators in the collimation section. Beam halo measurements have been performed using the wire scanners downstream of the main linac, which show that large part of beam halo is collimated by the gun collimator. Remaining losses in the collimation section are mainly due to misalignment. Alignment using orbit bumps in the collimation section is performed and presented in this paper.

  The European XFEL is a Hard X-ray Free Electron Laser based on superconducting accelerator technology. In operation since 2017, it now serves 3 FEL beamlines simultaneously for user experiments. We will report on the present operation of the linear accelerator, the beam distribution to the various beamlines and the performance of the FEL radiators.

It is important to verify both by simulation and experiments the wakefields in superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities, which can degrade the electron beam quality considerably or impose excessive heat load if left undamped. In this paper, we investigate the Higher Order Mode (HOM) spectra of the 3.9 GHz SRF cavities, which are assembled in a cryogenic module and are used to linearize the longitudinal phase space of the electron beam in the injector of the European XFEL. The HOM spectra are significantly different from the ones from a single cavity due to the coupling of the modes amongst cavities. The measurements not only provide direct input for the beam dynamics studies but also for the beam instrumentation utilizing these modes. The mode spectra are also investigated with a number of numerical simulations and the comparison with measurements shows favorable agreement.
