For measuring the temporal profile of the coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) at the KIT storage ring KARA (Karlsruhe Research Accelerator) an experimental setup based on electro-optical spectral decoding (EOSD) is currently being implemented. The EOSD technique allows single-shot, phase-sensitive measurements of the far-field radiation on a turn-by-turn basis at rates in the MHz range. Therefore, the resulting THz radiation from the dynamics of the bunch evolution, e.g. the microbunching, can be observed with high temporal resolution. This far-field setup is part of the distributed sensor network at KARA. Additionally to the information acquired from the near-field EOSD spectral decoding and the horizontal bunch profile monitor, it enables to monitor the longitudinal phase-space of the bunch. In this contribution, the characterization of the far-field setup is summarized and its implementation is discussed.

At the synchrotron light source DELTA operated by the TU Dortmund University, the short-pulse source employs the seeding scheme coherent harmonic generation (CHG) and provides ultrashort pulses in the vacuum ultraviolet and terahertz regime. Here, the interaction of laser pulses with the stored electron bunches result in a modulation of the longitudinal electron density which gives rise to coherent emission at harmonics of the laser wavelength. Recently, investigations of the influence of the Gouy phase shift at the focal point of the laser pulses on the laser-electron interaction have been performed. For the planned upgrade towards the more sophisticated seeding scheme echo-enabled harmonic generation (EEHG) featuring a twofold laser-electron interaction, simulations of the ideal parameters of the laser beams have been carried out.

The 1.5-GeV electron storage ring DELTA is a synchrotron light source operated by the TU Dortmund University. Radiation from hard X-rays to the THz regime is provided by dipole magnets and insertion devices like undulators and wigglers. To provide even shorter wavelengths, a new 22-pole superconducting 7-T wiggler has been installed. The edge focusing of the wiggler has a large impact on the linear optics of the storage ring. Measurements regarding its influence and simulations were performed. In addition, a second radiofrequency (RF) cavity has been installed to compensate the increased energy loss per turn due to the new wiggler. As a consequence of the higher RF power, the electron bunches are shorter compared to the old setup with only one cavity. In view of reducing the bunch length even more, studies of the storage ring optics with reduced momentum compaction factor were performed.

The TU Dortmund University operates the 1.5-GeV electron storage ring DELTA as a synchrotron light source in user operation and for accererator physics research. At a dedicated beamline, experiments with (sub-)THz radiation are carried out. Here, an interaction of short laser pulses with electron bunches is used to modulate the electron energy which causes the formation of a dip in the longitudinal electron density, giving rise to the coherent emission of radiation between 75 GHz and 6 THz. The standard mode of operation is the generation of broadband radiation. However, more sophisticated energy modulation schemes were implemented using a liquid-crystal phase modulator. Here, a modulation of the spectral phase of the laser is used to control the spectral shape of the THz pulses. The resulting THz spectra have a relative bandwidth of about 2 %. Measurement results from the different THz generation schemes are presented.
