A compact and low-cost 1 GeV injector linac was designed and constructed to provide injection beams to the soft X-ray synchrotron radiation facility NewSUBARU instead of the SPring-8 injector system, which will be shutdown. The total length of the injector linac needs to be less than 70 m to fit into the existing tunnel. To this end, an RF electron gun with a gridded thermionic cathode directly attached to a 238 MHz RF cavity was developed and adopted. The 500 keV, 0.6 ns, 1 nC beam emitted from the cavity is compressed to 3 ps by velocity bunching driven by a 476 MHz RF cavity and a S-band RF structure. The short-pulsed beams are accelerated up to 1 GeV with 16 C-band RF structures. In the C-band accelerator section, the klystron output of 50 MW is multiplied 4 times by a pulse compressor and fed to the 4 RF structures to generate a high accelerating field of 31 MV/m. A low-level RF system consisting of a MTCA.4 based high-speed digitizers and RF frontend boards has been constructed. This injector system is used at the 3 GeV SR facility currently under construction in Sendai. In this paper, we report the design outline and the operational performance of the injector system.

The beam injector for the SPring-8 storage ring (SR) was switched from the booster synchrotron to the SACLA linac, a driver for X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL). The low-emittance beam from SACLA (~100 pm rad, 8 GeV) is delivered to the SR through a 600m-long beam transport line. This low-emittance beam can be applied to the new low-emittance storage ring after the SPring-8 upgrade planed in the coming years. The shutdown of the booster synchrotron and 1-GeV linac saves energy consumption and operation cost. To provide the electron beam injected to the SR on demand for the top-up injection during the XFEL operation, the SACLA linac must be synchronized to the desired bucket of the SR, the beam energy and route must be switched shot-to-shot, and the XFEL performance must not be degraded. We developed a precise synchronization system, on-demand beam route and parameter switching system, a pulsed magnet for the switchyard, isolated bunch purification system, etc. In this presentation, we will show the design and performance of each component for the beam injection and the results from beam commissioning of the accelerator and transport line.
