The IR-FEL was constructed in the Compact ERL (cERL) at KEK from October 2019 to May 2020 for the purpose of developing high-power mid-infrared lasers for high-efficiency laser processing utilizing molecular vibrational absorption. The chicane magnet was newly installed between two IR-FEL undulators in the cERL in order to increase the FEL gain and pulse energy by converting the energy modulation to the density modulation in an electron bunch. It consists of three dipole magnets with laminated yokes made of 0.1-mm-thick permalloy sheets and the coil currents of the three magnets are independently controlled by three power supplies with the maximum current of 10 A. The maximum closed orbit bump made by the chicane magnetic field has the longitudinal dispersion(R56) of -6 mm. The coil-current ratio of the three dipole magnets was tuned after installation to make its orbit bumps closed and then the chicane magnet was used in the FEL operation. We present specifications and operational performance of the chicane magnet.

At the Johannes Gutenberg University (JGU) in Mainz, the Mainz Energy-recovering Superconducting Accelerator (MESA) is currently under construction. It is designed to deliver electron beams of up to 155 MeV. As it can be operated in an energy-recovery (ER) mode thus allowing for high repetition rate, it is a promising candidate for a high flux Thomson scattering based gamma source. This paper will provide a status update on the study of the impact of Thomson scattering on electron beam parameters and the underlying mechanics. Further, the implementation into a simulation code will be discussed.

The MESA Low-energy Beam Apparatus (MELBA) connects the DC photoemission source STEAM with the injector accelerator MAMBO. MELBA is capable of adjusting the longitudinal phase space for the requirements of the pre-acceleration by using a chopper and buncher while providing small transverse emittances. Measurements of the transverse phase space and longitudinal beam dimension taken at a test setup are presented. These results serve now for further improvements, e.g design changes in our corrector magnets. In addition, the revised MELBA will include two Wien filters and a solenoid for spin manipulation. A double scattering Mott polarimeter for spin diagnostics and a second source for the extraction of high bunch charges is foreseen using a branched off beam line. RF-synchronized laser diodes will be used with infrared wavelength as a driver for the spin-polarized photoemission. In this report we present the latest layout of MELBA and simulation results.

WEPAB064 Front-to-End Simulations of the Energy Recovery Linac for the LHeC Project 2740

  The LHeC project aims to study the electron-proton deep inelastic scattering at the TeV energy scale with an innovative accelerator program. It exploits the promising energy recovery technology in order to collide an intense 50 GeV lepton beam with one hadron beam from the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) in parallel to the hadron-hadron operation. The paper presents the studies that have been performed to assess the performance of the machine and the efficiency of the energy recovery process for different scalings of the ERL. The studies include emittance blow-up due to synchrotron radiation emission and beam-disruption created by the strong beam-beam force at the interaction point. The design principles of the ERL structure are discussed, including the particle detector bypass and the interaction region, and the results of the tracking simulations are presented, considering the complete multi-turn ERL process. Special attention is turned to the lepton beam emittance budget and the resulting energy recovery performance.

  The Powerful Energy Recovery Linac for Experiments (PERLE) is an accelerator facility for the development and application of the energy recovery technique for an intense 500 MeV electron beam. The paper presents the studies that have been performed to assess the quality of the ERL lattice design and beam optics. The studies include the Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR) emission and wakefields in the superconducting radio-frequency structures of the linacs. The lattice design and optics principles of the ERL structure are discussed, involving the vertical deflection system and the 180° arcs. Finally, the results of the front-to-end tracking simulations that consider the complete multi-turn energy recovery process are presented.

  The Cornell-BNL ERL Test Accelerator (CBETA) developed several energy-saving measures: multi-turn energy recovery, low-loss superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) cavities, and permanent magnets. With green technology becoming imperative for new high-power accelerators, the lessons learned will be important for projects like the FCC-ee or new light sources, where spinoffs and lessons learned from CBETA are already considered for modern designs.

  Delivery of high charge electron bunches into the main loop of an ERL (energy recovery linac) while preserving the emittance is challenging. This is because at the typical injection momentum, space charge forces still have a significant effect on the beam dynamics. In this work we consider the design of the merger for PERLE, an ERL test facility to be based at IJCLab in France. Previous simulations have shown that the baseline DC gun based injector can achieve the required emittance at the booster linac exit. The quality of the 500 pC bunches must then be preserved with space charge through the merger at total beam energy of 7 MeV keeping the emittance below 6 mm mrad. The beam dynamics in the merger were simulated using the code OPAL and optimised using a genetic algorithm. Three possible merger schemes were investigated. The goal of the optimisation was to minimise the emittance growth while also achieving the required Twiss parameters to match onto the spreader at the main linac exit. A three dipole solution is then examined in more detail.
