  For pump-probe and seeding experiments at free electron lasers, a femtosecond precise bunch arrival time stability is mandatory. To stabilize the arrival times a fast longitudinal intra bunch-train feedback (L-IBFB) using bunch arrival time monitors is applied. The electron bunch energy prior to a bunch compression chicane is modulated by superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities to compensate fast arrival time fluctuations of the subsequent bunches. A broadband normal conducting RF cavity was installed in front of the first bunch compression chicane at FLASH. The L-IBFB uses the normal conducting cavity for small but fast energy corrections together with the SRF cavities for larger and slower corrections. Current measurements show arrival time stabilities of the electron bunches towards 5 fs (rms) at the end of the linac, if the normal conducting cavity acts together with the SRF cavities in the L-IBFB system.

  The linear accelerator ARES (Accelerator Research Experiment at SINBAD) is a new research facility at DESY. Electron bunches with a maximum repetition rate of 50 Hz are accelerated up to 155 MeV. The facility aims for ultra-stable sub-femtosecond arrival-times and high peak-currents at the experiment, placing high demands on the reference distribution and field regulation of the S-band RF structures. In this paper, we report on the current status of the RF reference generation, facility-wide distribution, and the LLRF systems of the RF structures.

  The linear accelerator ARES (Accelerator Research Experiment at SINBAD) is a new research facility at DESY. Electron bunches with a maximum repetition rate of 50 Hz are accelerated to a target energy of 155 MeV. The facility aims for ultra-stable sub-femtosecond arrival-times and high peak-currents at the experiment, placing high demands on the reference distribution and field regulation of the RF structure. In this contribution, we present the physical parameter estimation of key RF properties such as cavity detuning not directly measurable on the RF field decay. The method can be used as a fast monitor of inner cell temperature. The estimated properties are finally compared with the measured ones.

  It is possible to connect the PCIe bus of a high performance computer to a MicroTCA crate. This allows the software on the computer to communicate with the modules in the crate, as if they were peripherals of the computer. This article will discuss the use of this feature in respect to accelerator control with a focus on High Level Controllers.
