In LCLS-II, after acceleration and compression and just before entering the undulator, the beam passes through roughly 2.5 km of 24.5 mm (radius) stainless steel pipe. The bunch that passes through the pipe is extremely short with an rms of 8 um for the nominal 100 pC case. Thus, even though the pipe has a large aperture, the wake that applies is the short-range resistive wall wakefield. It turns out that the wake supplies needed dechirping to the LCLS-II beam before it enters the undulator. The LCLS-II bunch distribution is approximately uniform, and therefore the wake induced voltage is characterized by a rather linear voltage chirp for short bunches. However for bunches longer than 25 um (300 pC at 1 kA) the wake starts to become nonlinear, effectively limiting the maximum charge with which the LCLS-II can operate. In this note we calculate the wake, discuss the confidence in the calculation, and investigate how to improve the induced chirp linearity and/or strength. Finally, we also study the strength and effects of the transverse (dipole) resistive wall wakefield.
