  abstract     = {{The Delhi Light source (DLS) is an upcoming compact THz facility at IUAC, New Delhi, based on pre-bunched FEL. RF conditioning of the 2.6 cell S-band RF gun is presently carried out with a Cu photo-cathode (PC) plug and dark current is produced when substantial accelerating field is reached inside the cavity. To identify the possible field emission sites contributing to dark current, single electron ASTRA simulations are done with a phase scan of the RF field. The simulation is extended to include multi-particle emission from the PC edge as a ring. The energies present in the dark current is analysed from the the Fowler Nordheim current plot and energy phase scan plot. The distribution of few dark current energies and their respective trajectories upto the YAG screen at a given solenoid setting is traced and shown in the simulations. We also present the dark current images captured during the initial RF conditioning and try to compare it with the simulations.}},
