  In linear accelerators, dispersion caused by quadrupole misalignment and transverse wake-field effect caused by alignment errors of accelerate structures will lead to a significant emittance growth. There are more stringent restrictions on SXFEL, the traditional optical alignment can no longer meet its requirements, but the Beam-Based Alignment(BBA) method allows more precise alignment, further reduce the Linac errors to meet SXFEL requirements .In undulator sections, orbit changes are not only caused by misalignments of quadrupole magnet position ,but also the errors of undulator magnetic. In order to achieve alignment accuracy over longer distance, we measuring BPM data under different conditions and using SVD algorithm for calculation and analysis, we can get the quadrupole magnet errors and BPM offset. With the method above, software based on MATLAB has been designed and compared the results with other software.

  The microbunching instability in the LINAC of a FEL facility has always been an issue which may degrade the quality of the electron beam. As the result, the whole facility may not be working properly. Shanghai soft X-ray FEL project (SXFEL), which is planned to start construction by the end of 2012, will be the first X-ray FEL facility in China. In this article, detailed study will be given based on the physical design of the facility to gain better understanding and control over the possible microbunching instability in SXFEL, which is critical to the success of the project. Moreover, the contribution of the possible plasma effects to the instability will also be studied by modifying the physical model of the longitudinal space charge (LSC) impedance.

  The longitudinal space charge (LSC) plays an important role in introducing the microbunching instability in the LINAC of a free electron laser (FEL) facility. The current model of LSC impedance [1] derived from the fundamental electromagnetic theory [2] is widely used to explain the growth of the microbunching instability [3]. However, in the case of highly bright relativistic electron beams, the plasma effect starts to play a role. In this article, the basic model of LSC impedance including the plasma effect is built , and the modifications to the microbunching instability based on the new model are discussed in various conditions.
