MOPAB098 | LCLS Multi-Bunch Improvement Plan | 365 |
|
||
Current and future experiments at LCLS require XFEL pulse trains of variable time separation. The cavity based XFEL (CBXFEL) project requires multiple pulses separated by 220 ns, the X-ray Laser Oscillator (XLO) uses 15 ns spaced pulse trains and Matter under Extreme Conditions (MEC) experiments need a shortly spaced (less than 5 ns) pulse trains. In this proceeding, we discuss the LCLS multi-bunch improvement plan and report on its recently status and progress. | ||

MOPAB100 | Progress Report on Population Inversion-Based X-Ray Laser Oscillator | 373 |
|
||
The population inversion X-ray Laser Oscillator (XLO) is a fully coherent, transform limited hard X-ray source. It operates by repetitively pumping inner-shell atomic transitions with an XFEL, in a closed Bragg cavity. XLO will produce very bright monochromatic X-ray pulses for applications in quantum optics, X-ray interferometry and metrology. We report the progress to build the first XLO operating at the copper alpha line, using LCLS 9 keV SASE X-ray pulses as a pump. | ||

TUPAB083 | Dual Energies in the LCLS Copper Linac | 1570 |
|
||
For LCLS-II two undulators were installed at SLAC, one for soft and one for hard x-rays. Before the superconducting linac gets turned on the copper linac is providing beams at 120 Hz to these two beam destinations. The 120 Hz can be split in many different ratios between soft and hard via a pulsed magnet. To get an optimized beam for the quite different photon energies the pulsed linac components like modulators and RF can provide many different beam parameters, mainly energies and bunch lengths for the two undulator lines. How this was implemented with timing setups of triggers and finally after the split the necessary matching of the transverse phase space will be discussed. | ||

TUPAB110 | Measurement and Correction of RF Kicks in the LCLS Accelerator to Improve Two-Bunch Operation | 1644 |
|
||
Funding: This work was supported by the Department of Energy, Laboratory Directed Research and Development program at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, under contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. RF kicks, caused by a misalignment of an electron beam and acceleration structure, produce an electron orbit in the accelerator which decreases the final energy of the accelerated electron beam and is detrimental to lasing electron bunches in an X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL). RF kicks can depend on the RF waveform of the accelerating structure, so controlling this effect is particularly important when two or more electron bunches are accelerated within an RF fill time. Multibunch modes have been successfully developed for the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) accelerator at SLAC,* and are being continually improved to accommodate new experiments. One such experiment, the Cavity-Based XFEL (CBXFEL)** project will require two electron bunches separated by 218.5 ns which must be identical in energy and orbit. To reduce variation in energy and orbit between the two bunches, we studied the RF kicks produced by each of 75 accelerator segments in the LCLS linac at several RF timings. Here, we discuss these measurements and propose a method to correct RF kicks in the LCLS accelerator using corrector dipoles and quadrupoles. * F.-J. Decker, et al.
