Advances in many scientific and technical fields depend on availability of instruments, which can probe the structure of materials or molecules on unprecedented levels of spatial or temporal resolution. Many of such instruments are based on accelerators of charged particles, with particular examples of synchrotron radiation light sources and coherent X-ray Free Electron Lasers. The high cost of such facilities, however, preclude wide spread of such instruments. Modern accelerator science witnesses emergence of a new direction – compact x-ray sources are coming to the scene, enabled by the synergy of accelerators and lasers, where high gradient laser-plasma acceleration can significantly reduce the size and cost of the facilities. Compact x-ray sources will be developed in the nearest future and will share their scientific and market niche with large national scale x-ray facilities. The compact sources will in particular be suitable for placement in universities and medical or technological centres. The compact x-ray light sources are being developed by many centres in UK. Development of compact x-ray FEL is a promising topic for scientific and technological collaboration between UK and Russia, where expertise of partners will cross-fertilize their ability to solve scientific and technological challenges.

The 35kV and 300kV electron coolers of HIRFL-CSR have come into routine operation. Some signal samples acquired from BPM and Schottky probes during operation were presented in this paper, and they were observed in the different operation periods such as during injection, after cooling and cooling force measurement. These signals were considered related with the ion beam instability. The central frequency of ion beam varied with the time. Some were caused by the ripple of hardware, the other were created by ion beam itself. The reasons which caused these phenomena were analysed. The possible solutions were suggested, and some necessary upgrade and improvements were expected. These results were helpful to attempt the Schottky Mass Spectrometry measurement in the CSR.

With the use of S-LSR, an ion storage and cooler ring at ICR, Kyoto University, approach to attain the low temperature beam has been continued in these several years. Based on the realization of one dimensional ordered state of 7 MeV proton beam by an electron cooling*, effort to reach lower temperature by laser cooling with much stronger cooling force, has been continued for 40 keV Mg ion beam. With the use of synchro-betatron resonance coupling(SBRC), longitudinal cooling effect can be well expected to be transferred to the transverse directions** and we have experimentally demonstrated of such effect***. The transverse cooling efficiency is, however, not so good deteriorated by intra-beam scattering (IBS) effect for the beam intensities higher than 107. Although the reduction of the beam intensity keeping enough S/N ratio for observation of the beam, is not so easy, we are now challenging "controlled scraping", which controls the horizontal scraper position according to the extent of the indirect horizontal laser cooling by SBRC. In the present paper, our research stream from electron cooling to multi-dimensional laser cooling is surveyed at first and then challenge toward the crystalline beam is to be presented.

  At the NICA collider project it is planned to make collision of 24 short bunches, each containing around 109 197Au79+ ions, at the two colliding points in the ring. The operation energy is envisaged from 1 GeV/u to 4.5 GeV/u. To prepare such beam conditions, the beam cooling technique, stochastic and electron beam, is employed at the beam accumulation from the injector Nuclotron and the following short bunch formation stage. Rather long pulse beam could be injected and accumulated in the collider with use of barrier voltage and beam cooling. After the enough beam accumulation, typically 2.4·1010, the high voltage RF with harmonic number 24 is applied to the accumulated coasting beam as well as the beam cooling which allow us to make the required short bunch of around 1nsec rms bunch length. The equilibrium condition is attained after 100~200 sec cooling, with the balance of RF force, cooling effects, IBS diffusion and the space charge repulsion force. In the present paper, detailed simulation results of beam accumulation and short bunch formation with stochastic cooling and electron cooling are presented including the space charge effects.

  General goal of the BETACOOL program is to simulate long term processes (in comparison with the ion revolution period) in the ion storage ring leading to variation of the ion distribution function in 6 dimensional phase space. The ion beam motion inside a storage ring is supposed to be stable and it is treated in linear approximation. Results of the numerical simulation of the beam dynamics for new projects FAIR (GSI, Germany) and NICA (JINR, Russia) are presented.

TUZCH01 Current Plans for Beam Cooling at FAIR antiproton, ion, target, storage-ring 63
 
  • M. Steck
    GSI, Darmstadt, Germany
 
  In the new FAIR accelerator facility the production of intense secondary beams largely relies on beam cooling. The pre-cooling of secondary beams, either antiprotons or rare isotopes, is performed in the large acceptance Collector Ring (CR). A stochastic cooling system is under development which can be applied to both species, although they have different velocities. After transfer of the pre-cooled beams to the High Energy Storage Ring (HESR) stochastic and electron cooling will be available. In the HESR cooling allows accumulation of secondary beams, improvement of beam quality and luminosity for internal experiments and compensation of beam heating by the internal target. The proposed cooling procedures and the status of the beam cooling systems will be reviewed.

  In the recent years, Russian government and scientific society have been coming gradually to an understanding the way of development science in Russia. Government have accepted a program of building six mega-science projects, and one of them can be a new 4-th generation x-ray light source based on accelerator-recuperator. Multiturn energy recovery linacs (ERL) looks very promising for making modern synchrotron radiation sources, being less expensive and more flexible. At this time only one multiturn ERL exists. This Novosibirsk ERL operates with two orbits and two free electron lasers based on one linac now. The conception of Multiturn Accelerator-recuperator Radiation Source (MARS) was proposed in 1997 by G.N. Kulipanov, A.N. Skrinsky and N.A. Vinokurov. The use of the ERL with two separated accelerating structures allows to exclude main disadvantages of scheme with one linac, such as the pass of electron bunches with different energies through the same magnetic arcs. The feasibility study for such ERL-based high brightness x-ray source is presented.

SLAC is a home of the first hard x-ray free electron laser - the Linac Coherent Light Source, or LCLS, based on Self-Amplified Stimulated Emission (SASE) principle. Being a user facility, LCLS, as well as some other installations at SLAC, are, at the same time, test beds of research aimed to improving fundamental characteristics of free electron lasers. In this presentation I will review results of some of these studies. They include studies of the FEL seeding based on the Echo-Enabled Harmonic Generation (EEGH) carried out at the NLCTA facility at SLAC, hard x-ray self seeding at LCLS, noise suppression experiments, and research aimed to achieve terawatt-scale power in FELs. A brief review of the plans for LCLS upgrade will be given.

  The free electron laser (FEL) facility at Budker INP is being developed for more than 15 years. It is based on the normal conducting CW energy recovery linac (ERL) with rather complicated magnetic system lattice. Up to now it is the only one in the world multiorbit ERL. It can operate in three different regimes providing electron beam for three different FELs. Its commissioning was naturally divided in three stages. The first stage ERL includes only one orbit placed in vertical plane. It serves as electron beam source for terahertz FEL which started working for users in 2003. Radiation of this FEL is used by several groups of scientists including biologists, chemists and physicists. Its high peak and average powers are utilized in experiments on material ablation and biological objects modification. The second stage ERL is composed of two orbits located in horizontal plane. The second stage FEL is installed on the bypass of the second orbit. The first lasing of this FEL was achieved in 2009. The last stage ERL will include four orbits. Its commissioning is in progress now. In this paper we report the latest results obtained from the operating FELs as well as our progress with the commissioning of the two remaining ERL beamlines. We also discuss possible options for the future upgrade.

  Development of a number of promising photonuclear technologies is connected with the use of bremsstrahlung sources having end-point energy up to 100 MeV and average radiation power of tens kW. Commonly, such sources are created on the basis of high-current electron linacs. A possibility of bremsstrahlung dosimetry by means of activation of a target from indium of natural composition and absorbed dose determination through the specific activity of the 115mIn isomer is reported. Preliminary study of isomer photoactivation as well as the yield of reference reactions from simultaneously irradiated natural molybdenum was conducted by simulation technique. Joint measurement of the 115mIn, 90Mo, 99Mo activity and absorbed dose in the PMMA standard dosimeters were carried out at LU-10 and LU-40 linacs of NSC KIPT in the electron energy range 8…70 MeV. It was found that, within the range of study, the ratio of the 115mIn specific activity to absorbed dose in the PMMA slightly depends on the bremsstrahlung end-point energy.

  This paper describes beam extraction system for pulse linear electron accelerator ILU-14 with energy range 7.5-10 MeV and beam power up to 100 kW. The main aim of this work was to achieve the uniform dose field in radiation zone. Admissible dose nonuniformity is of no more than ± 5% along the scanning length up to 1 m (if necessary, the scanning length may be reduced). Geometrical and electron-optical characteristics of all the beam channel elements were optimized after computer simulation of electron trajectories. To achieve the required nonuniformity of dose field additional electromagnets were installed. These magnets realize beam focusing and centering of the beam endwise of the channel, as well as correction of the scanning field. Control system of magnets power supply allows the online correction of electron beam.

  Bunch shape is one of the most important, interesting but difficult to observe characteristics of a beam in ion linear accelerators. Different possibilities of bunch shape measurements are considered but the emphasis is put on the Bunch Shape Monitors (BSM) developed in INR RAS. The operation of BSM is based on a coherent transformation of a longitudinal structure of a beam under study into a spatial distribution of a secondary electron beam through rf scanning. BSM characteristics found both by simulations and experimentally are presented; the ultimate parameters and the limitations are discussed. Modifications of BSM are described. Some experimental results of bunch observations are demonstrated.

  The JINR activities are aimed on the construction of accelerators for proton and carbon ion therapy. JINR-IBA have developed and constructed the proton cyclotron C235-V3. The cyclotron will be delivered in the first Russian hospital center of the proton therapy in Dimitrovgrad in 2012. The project of the medical carbon synchrotron was developed in JINR. The project goal is accumulation of the superconducting Nuclotron technology at construction of the carbon synchrotron. Accelerated 12C ion beams are effectively used for cancer treatment. The PET is the most effective way of tumor diagnostics. The intensive radioactive 11C ion beam could allow both these advantages to be combined. JINR-NIRS collaboration develops formation of a primary radioactive ion beam at intensity on the tumor target of 108 pps for the scanning radiation. A superconducting cyclotron C400 has been designed by the IBA-JINR collaboration. This cyclotron will be used for radiotherapy with proton, helium and carbon ions. Its construction was started in 2010 within the framework of the Archarde project (France). The interaction between delta electrons and DNA molecules is one of the important processes in the hadron therapy. The formation of low energy electrons and DNA ions are presented for the KEK electrostatic storage ring with the electron target developed by JINR-NIRS collaboration.

  Electron String Ion Source (ESIS) "Krion-2" (JINR) is the first and now only ion source of such type in the world. ESIS is a sophisticated modification of Electron Beam Ion Source (EBIS) working in a reflex mode of operation under very specific conditions. The main results, which were achieved during recent years are: Au54+ ion beams with intensity 5x107 particle per pulse were first produced, ion-ion cooling technology was demonstrated to prove its efficiency for a thermal ion loss reduction and Krion-2 was used for production and injection of Xe42+ ion beam into LINAC injector of JINR synchrotron Nuclotron, where the beam was first accelerated to relativistic energy in March 2010 [1-3]. At the present time an essential progress was achieved in construction of the new 6 Tesla ESIS, which is expected to be the full scale prototype of a highly charged ion source for NICA - the new JINR accelerator complex. It is foreseen in the NICA project that new ESIS will provide Au32+ beams with ion yield about 2x109 ppp. However, a project parameters of new Krion-6T ion source allow to expect production of even more highly charged states of heavy elements, up to Au69+ in terms of gold. In this case new Krion-6T ESIS is planned to be used on operating JINR "Nuclotron" facility in near future for experiments with an extracted accelerated gold ion beams on a fixed target.

Design parameters are limited by the allowable total weight and height of the trailer on the road which controlled by National Authorities. Therefore, the output parameter of electron beam is designed for 0.7 MeV and 20 kW through 600 mm window. Shielding of a mobile electron accelerator has been examined by Monte Carlo technique (MCNP code). Calculations using two different versions (version 4c2 and version 5) of MCNP showed agreements within statistical uncertainties, and the highest leakage is far below the tolerable radiation dose limit. This mobile unit will be used for on-site test of liquid waste and gaseous waste in Saudi Arabia by Saudi ARAMCO and U.S.A. by PELE Technology Inc. together with EB TECH Co. Ltd. This unit could treat up to 500m3 of liquid waste per day or 10,000 Nm3 of gases per day.

    NSC/KIPT, Kharkov, Ukraine
 
  At present work excitation of wakefields by an relativistic electron bunch in a capillary tube filled with plasma is investigated. In the approximation of constant velocity of the bunches an analytical expressions for a components of an electromagnetic field are found. Numerical calculations of excited capillary tubes fields fabricated from the alumina and the quartz is carried out. Outer diameter of a capillary tube is equal 1 mm, inner diameter is 0.4 mm. In the absence of plasma in such structure the wakefields of the THz frequencies range are excited. Longitudinal and transverse profiles of wake fields in slow wave structure which drive channel is filled with plasma are investigated in details. These profiles allow to investigate dependences of wakefields from plasma density, the sizes of dielectric structure and/or the linear sizes of an electron bunch. When comparison of these dependences, it follows that there are longitudinal positions of the test bunch relative to the drive bunch, which can provide high-gradient acceleration of charged particles and their simultaneous radial focusing.

  A nonlinear self-consistent theory of excitation of an axially asymmetric wakefield by relativistic electron bunches in cylindrical dielectric resonator with a vacuum channel for the charged particles transportation through the resonator is constructed. An excited fields are presented in the form of superposition solenoidal and potential fields. The solenoidal electromagnetic fields are presented by an expansion of the required fields into solenoidal fields of the empty dielectric resonator. The potential field is presented by the eigenfunction expansion method. The dispersion equation for determination of eigenfrequencies and the equation for eigenvalues are obtained, eigenwaves, eigenfunctions and their norms are found. For an excited fields the analytical expressions, that take into account both longitudinal and transverse dynamics of bunch particles are derived. Along with the equations of motion they provide a self-consistent description of the dynamics of generated fields and bunches. The formulated nonlinear theory allows investigating numerically the nonlinear effects such as increasing of the transverse bunch size, and head-tail beam breakup instability, which occurs if the electron bunch in the structure is misaligned.  
 
MOPPA004 Energy Spread Decreasing in Linear Mode Operating Laser Plasma Wakefield Accelerator plasma, laser, acceleration, bunching 251
 
  • S.M. Polozov

  Laser plasma wakefield acceleration (LPWA)* is one of most popular novel methods of acceleration. The LPWA is very perceptively because the accelerating gradient in plasma channel can be a number of orders larger than in metal structures. But the LPWA has two serous disadvantages as very high energy spread and low part of electrons trapped into acceleration. The energy spectrum better than 10% does not observed anyone in simulations or experiments. It should be noted that the electron's beam dynamics in LPWA is different for underdense plasma (quasi linear mode) and in for dense plasma (non-linear and bubble modes). Non-linear mode is studying more intensive at present and methods of the energy spread decrease are under development **,***. But the linear LPWA mode also has interest for practical use. The rate of energy gain is very high in the linear mode also and compact laboratory scale facility could be designed to accelerate the electron beam up to a hundreds MeV. Bunching before injection into plasma channel will discuss to decrease the energy spread and to enlarge the electron trapping efficiency.

Short and highly intense laser pulses focused into a gas target, ionise the gas and may excite large amplitude plasma waves that support extreme electric fields (>10 GV/m) for acceleration of charged particles. The REGAE facility at DESY, which provides 2-5 MeV of ~10 fs bunches, offers the unique possibility to study the external injection of pre-accelerated electron bunches from a conventional accelerator, and their subsequent acceleration in plasma wakefields. Simulations were performed with the particle-in-cell code OSIRIS, showing a wide variety of effects which can be explored in the future at REGAE. External controlled injection allows to study effects which require precise information about the beam quality, position and momentum at the initial point of injection. Topics of a particular interest are: bunch emittance growth suppression, controlled betatron motion, and longitudinal bunch compression.

Plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA) is a promising tool for acceleration of charged particles to high energies at relatively small lengths. Knowledge about the structure of the electromagnetic field produced by the driver bunch in plasma plays the essential role for the realization of this accelerating scheme. Constant external magnetic field which can be used for focusing the driver bunch affects the field structure essentially because plasma acquires both anisotropy and gyrotropy. However, the electromagnetic field in the latter case has not been practically investigated until present. Here we study the field produced by point charge and small bunch moving in cold magnetized plasma along the external magnetic field. We note the singular behavior of some components of the wave field produced by point charge near the charge trajectory. We also analyze the influence of the external magnetic field and bunch size on the field components.

  The generator of high intensity monochromatic radiation in sub-mm band is currently under R&D at the Department of Electrophysical Facilities of MEPhI. This generator is based on photoinjector and irradiating Cherenkov capillary. It is necessary to have high brightness electron beams to generate of monochromatic radiation in this type of structure. These beams can be produced by photocathode and accelerated to energy of several MeV using short structure having high rate of energy gain. Irradiating capillary represents metal tube having inner radius of the radiation wavelength order and covered with dielectric layer or made of corrugated waveguide. It's important to study the self-consistent dynamics of the beam during the acceleration as the pulse current is equal several A, i.e. the beam dynamics should be studied taking into account RF (radiation) field and Coulomb field of self space charge. Another task is to study the electron beam dynamics and fields irradiated by it in decelerating structure in the absence of external fields. The scheme of the facility, its operation mode and high-current beam dynamics simulation results in accelerating and irradiating structures are presented.

  Cooling of electron beams (transversal velocities reducing) in storage rings (cyclic accelerators) may be realized using gyromonotron device as part of storage ring at straight-line portion. The gyromonotron is a HF oscillator for cm and mm band of wavelength in which electron beam with nonzero transversal velocities is used for excitation electromagnetic wave. Energy of transversal motion of electron beam converts into energy of electromagnetic wave during multiple passing the same bunches with repetition frequency f0 through gyromonotron. We choose frequency f0 (and corresponding wavelength AL) as minimal frequency (H111 mode) for gyromonotron's resonator. As well known, frequency f0 of H111 mode gives possibility to determine radius of the resonator R~AL/(2*1.71). We assumed above that resonator's length L/(2*R)>1. It is possible for gyromonotron's solenoid to determine longitudinal magnetic field Hz(kOE)=11/AL(cm) for low relativistic beam's energy. For gyromonotron's operation at given frequency it's needed realization of condition for relativistic cyclotron frequency Omrel/(2*3.14)~ f0. Emitted beam radiation dissipates inside gyromonotron’s resonator (output window is absent). Q-quality gyromonotron’s resonator and pitch factor PF of electron beam have to satisfy condition Q* PF>1 (for "warm" or superconducting (SC) resonators).

  A method for measuring the characteristic, which makes possible to find the energy spectrum of the electron beam of the accelerator is described. This method uses the magnetic analyzer, which is based on the scanning system of the standing wave linear electron accelerator, mounted on the radiation sterilizer. This characteristic is the dependence of beam current, that reaches the induction sensor at the accelerator output window, on the magnetic field, deflecting the beam from the axis of the system. The results of the measurements of these characteristic, which were performed on the sterilization installation in MRTI, are presented. The computer simulation of electron beam dynamics in the scanning system for the case of these experiments was performed with the help of developed program "BEAM SCANNING". The similar dependence of the beam current on the magnetic field was obtained. The necessity of taking into account the effect of electron reflection from the walls of vacuum chamber is stated. To describe this effect the additional features were implemented in the program. As a result of calculations with the account of this effect, the correspondence of the calculated curve and experimental one was reached. This means that the calculated spectrum corresponds to the actual energy spectrum of the electron beam in the experiment.

The measurement of beam parameters during the commissioning of VEPP-5 Damping Ring is presented. Coherent betatron oscillations of the 380-MeV electron beam were induced by a fast kick. Electrostatic beam position monitors were used to obtain the turn-by-turn transverse beam position data. The form and behaviour of the envelope of oscillations are determined by the beam parameters, chromaticity and nonlinear detuning. Beam emittance and energy spread values have been obtained from the analysis of the beam envelope, nonlinear detuning and chromaticity measurements. The results are in a good agreement with theoretical predictions which were made for calibrated model of the Damping Ring. Independent analysis of betatron spectra envelope have been performed for energy spread measurements as well.

  Nowadays angiography has become one of the most commonly used medical procedures. However the X-ray tubes are mostly used in angiography imaging systems. The problem that encounters in using X-ray tubes is low monochromaticity due to bremsstrahlung while angiography imaging requires quasimonochromatic energy spectrum for better image quality and lower dose rate obtained by the patient. The use of the monocrystaline target at the medical electron LINAC can be one of the possible ways to obtain the monochromatic X-ray radiation. This type of X-ray generator will provide monochromatic radiation with photon energy dependent on the electron beam energy. The X-ray generation mechanism, possibilities of monocrystal usage as an X-ray source for angiography and requirements for beam parameters are discussed.

Effect of space charge is not considered. The field emitter is modeled by a charged filament of finite length, which located on the system's axis. The modulator has a form of a circular diaphragm. The Poisson equation with the given values of potentials at the electrodes is solved. The variable separation method is used to determine distribution of electrostatic potential. An unknown function of the charge density is approximated by a piecewise constant linear function. The problem of finding unknown coefficients in the potential eigenfunction expansion is reduced to the linear algebraic equations system. Numerical calculations emitter's forms are represented.

  The multi-tip field cathode as the field emission cathode arrays for rectangular lattice is considered. The field emission cathodes are of interest for vacuum nano-scale electronic devices. The electrostatic potential distribution is presented for the periodic system of free-number thin tips on a plane substrate as a field emission cathode and a plane substrate as an anode. The tips shape may be various. The potential of the substrate and cathode is equal the zero, the anode's potential is equal a constant. The effect of space charge is neglected. The each tip is represented as a system of the point charges. The point charges are determined to the zero equipotential coincides with the cathode's shape. The potential distribution is found for whole region of the field emission cathode arrays. The exact three-dimensional solution to the Laplace/Poisson equation has been obtained in the Cartesian coordinate system. This solution has direct applications in three-dimensional calculations of electron trajectories in micron- and submicron-sized field-emitter arrays.

  A new electron source for the Race-Track Microtron Recuperator is being developed by BINP SB RAS. It will increase average beam current and brightness of synchrotron radiation. Instead of the static 300kV electron gun operated now we are developing RF gun with the same energy of electrons. This RF gun consists of RF cavity with a gridded thermo cathode mounted on the back wall. RF cavity is driven by a 60 kW generator with last stage equipped by GU101A tetrode tube. Operational frequency of the cavity is 90.2 MHz. It is equal to the second subharmonic of the Microtron RF system frequency. A set of low power electronics controls amplitude of the cavity voltage and its tuner.

A coherent source based on a electron gun is considered to deliver high instantaneous power comparable to that available from just a few other non-FEL and most FEL sources at mm-submillimeter wavelengths. A DC or RF E-gun is integrated with a robust, compact, efficient, dismountable radiator inside the vacuum envelope. Wakefield radiator is driven by a low-energy photoinjector operated in a custom mode combining strong over-focusing, robust slow-wave structure, and pulse sub-ps photoinjectior employing on-cathode beam modulation with conventional optical multiplexing. Single pulse mode operation is enhanced with filed compression effect at high group velocity. The performance is analyzed analytically and numerically supported by experimental data on beam overfocusing. Radiation outcoupling is analyzed as well.

  In Budker INP SBRAS was developed electron cooler with energy up to 2MeV for COSY accelerator (Germany). Due to restricted footprint, cooler's collector and gun parts were combined in a single acceleration system – high voltage terminal. All power and control electronics were placed in a single isolated volume, filled with SF6 gas under 4-6 atm. pressure. Electronics is controlled via wireless CAN, and powered by multistage transformer, capable of 15 kW power at 26 kHz. Wireless control is passed through dedicated optically transparent window, also served for modulated laser beam, used in electron beam diagnostic. By construction, electronics is divided on two standalone units: collector power supply and gun-filter system (SGF). SGF is built on 19" EuroPak chassis, where were placed all power modules, needed for collector and gun pipe electrodes. All power outputs were protected against overvoltage and sparks, available while cooler exploitation. In SGF there were controlled up to 40 parameters altogether. SGF inner power supply provides stable operation in wide range of input voltage, up to ±50% from nominal. Also included in SGF are 2 auxiliary systems, used for beam guiding and beam diagnostics.

  The Low Energy Positron Toroidal Accumulator (LEPTA) at JINR proposed for generation of positronium in flight can be used for positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS). The positron injector of the LEPTA facility can generate continuous slow positron beam of the intensity up to 1*107 s−1 at the energy in the range of a few eV to 100 keV and width of the spectrum 1-2 eV. The injector is based on radioactive 22Na isotope. The solid neon is used as moderator to generate monochromatic positron beam. It is known that positrons implanted into the matter can localize the defects of structure as vacancies, clusters of vacancies and pores. Observation of gamma quanta (511 keV) from annihilation process allows to obtain the information about the presence, concentration and kind of defects. Nowadays, the experiments with the use of slow positrons beam instead of standard isotopic sources are more popular. The progress in the creation of Doppler broadening of annihilation gamma line spectrometer will be presented here. In the simplest version, it is a set composed of a HpGe detector, a preampliefier, an ampliefier, a MC analyzer and a PC computer. This combination makes possible the observation of changes in 511 keV gamma line, calculation characteristics for PAS parameters and in effect to deduce about defects concentration and their chemical surrounding.

  The report represents a beam scanning system for irradiation of opposite sides of the boxes during one pass. This beam scanning system contains the well-known scanning system composed of scanning magnet and vacuum chamber with the beam extraction window covered by titanium foil. The bending magnet, which is located on the edge of this vacuum chamber, turns the electron beam to the metallic pipe, connected with the vacuum chamber. The metallic pipe goes sideways from the irradiated boxes and is connected with the second vacuum chamber, located inside of a 180 degrees bending magnet. Electrons are turning on 180 degrees and scanning along the opposite side of the boxes due to the hyperbolic shape of the current in a coil of the 180 degrees bending magnet. Therefore, electrons are scanning along one side of the box, then round the box sideway through the metallic pipe and scanning along the opposite side of this box after turning 180 degrees. The full cycle of the scanning can be repeated up to 6 times per second. The experimental results of this system operation with 10 MeV, 12 kW electron beam are given in this report.

  A linear electron accelerator IDK-6/9МeV has been designed for operation as a source of ionizing radiation in a customs inspection system intended for inspection of large-scale cargos. The main operating mode of the accelerator is the X-ray mode with an energy of 6 MeV, which ensures the penetrability (for steel) more than 300 mm. The operating mode of the accelerator can be quickly changed for 9 Mev, which allows the objects under study to be discriminated based on the organics/non-organics criterion using the "two energies" method. A triode electron source with cathode and grid modulators is applied in the accelerator. A system of collimators located at the output of the accelerating device ensures shaping of an X-ray beam fan-shaped in the vertical plane with an opening angle of 460 directed towards the detector line. The accelerator is equipped with a computerized system of protective interlocks and control, which makes possible its operation both in the setting mode and as a component of the whole customs inspection system.

  In 2008-2009, NIIEFA specialists performed works on updating the "ELECTRON-3M" accelerator previously delivered to FSUE "Admiralty Shipyards" to be operated on the line for radiation curing of polymer coatings. After obtaining nominal parameters on the updated accelerator "ELECTRON-3M2", the intensity of bremsstrahlung radiation on the surface of the accelerator shielding was measured; the obtained data confirmed the machine compliance with corresponding norms and regulation documents. Measurements of parameters of the accelerator electron radiation field have demonstrated that the uniformity coefficient of the beam current linear density is 5%, and the symmetry coefficient amounts to 1%. The beam current and accelerating voltage instability during one hour of operation does not exceed 1%. After the updating, the lifetime of the accelerator will be not less than 10 years.

  The problem of the absorbed dose distribution during the EB treatment by ELV accelerator is considered. The value of the absorbed dose is determined by the speed of scanning electron beam along the accelerator exit window (i.e. the movement across the conveyor). It is determined both by the shape of scanning current and by the geometry of scanning magnets. A simple way to improve the dose distribution near the edges of the extraction device of accelerator is suggested. It allows to provide the non-uniformity less 4%.

  The electromagnetic wiggler is applied for narrow-band THz radiation in the 30 mkm to 9.35 mm wavelength range. This is a planar electromagnetic device with 6 regular periods, each 30 cm long. The end termination pattern structure is +1/4,-3/4,+1,…,- 1,+3/4,-1/4. This structure is more appreciable for compensation of the first and second fields, especially, to provide the small value of of second integral of 500 G*cm2. The peak magnetic field is up to 0.356 T, it is defined by large wiggler gap of 102 mm and available capacity of water cooling system of 70 kW. The parameter is varied in the range K=0.5-7.12 corresponding to a field range B=0.025-0.356 T peak field on axis. The wiggler is used in 15-40 MeV at beam currents up to 1.6 mA. The bunch compression scheme allows the whole wavelength range to be covered by super-radiant emission with a sufficient form factor. The wavelength range corresponds to 217 mkm - 9.35 mm at electron energy of 15 MeV, it is equal to 54 mkm - 2.3 mm at electron energy of 30 MeV and it is 30 mkm - 1.33 mm at electron energy of 40 MeV. The 3D Opera simulations and design of THz wiggler is under discussion.

  Modern Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) projects use superconductive accelerating radio-frequency structures (RF). Their RF quality is typically very high. Therefore, the RF voltage induced by electron beam is also high. In ERL the RF voltage induced by the accelerating beam is almost cancelled by the RF voltage induced by the decelerating beam. But, a small variation of the RF voltage may cause the deviations of the accelerating phases. These deviations then may cause further voltage variation. Thus, the system may be unstable. The stability conditions for ERL with one accelerating structure are well known. The ERL with split RF structure was discussed recently. The stability conditions for such ERLs are discussed in this paper

The paper focuses on the results of experiments on direct measurement of speed of the light emitted by an ultrarelativistic source. The source of synchrotron radiation (SR), Siberia-1 electron storage ring at Kurchatov Institute, was used as a pulsed source of light. Experiments were made on the visible part of the SR emitted by ultrarelativistic electron bunch moving along a curved trajectory in the magnetic field of the bending magnet. The measured value of speed of the light pulse in vacuum coincided with the tabular value of the light speed within 0.5%. Results of the measurements support the second postulate of Einstein's special theory of relativity about independence of speed of light from the source velocity. The paper contains schematic of the experiment, description of its components, main parameters of Siberia-1 electron storage ring and electron bunches. Description of the method of direct measurement of light speed as well as experimental oscillograms and calculation data are also presented.
 
 
WEPPD013 Inverse Compton Sources on the Basis of Electron Accelerators with Beam Energy Recovery cavity, linac, photon, FEL 593
 
  • V.G. Kurakin, P.V. Kurakin

  In inverse Compton Source, photons in Roentgen range originate from visible light laser photons scattered back on electrons with the energy of dozens MeV. Several schemes are suggested in the paper, beam energy recovery conception being the common idea of all of them. The first one is based on synchrotron with flat part of guiding magnetic field. Being accelerated, electron bunch interacts with photon bunch of free electron laser mounted on straight paths of the accelerator, then is decelerated during falling down period of magnetic field cycle, and extracted at low energy from synchrotron to absorb in beam dump. This measure decreases background that originates from bremsstrahlung of lost electrons inherent to classical schema with linear accelerator and storage ring. Two other schemes use superconducting linac that produces relativistic electron bunches which energy is recovered after use, free electron laser (FEL) driven by bunches from linac being used to produce photons bunches for source. In one scheme the same electron bunches are use to drive FEL and inverse Compton Source, while in the other one beam splitting technique is suggested. It is based on beam energy modulation with subsequent separation of successive bunches. The expected self excitation inverse Compton sources parameters are estimated followed by critical issues discussion for all schemes suggested.

  In 2011 Dubna-Minsk collaboration started an activity on the development and manufacture the series of superconducting niobium cavities in the enterprises in Belarus. First results of this work are presented. Simulation code was developed to compute EM characteristics, and to calculate the shape and geometric dimensions of SC niobium RF-cavity taking into account higher order oscillations modes. The calculations of a single-cell and 9-cell cavity were made: the found ratio of the maximum electric field on the cavity axis to an average accelerating field is 2 within 1%; the found geometric factor equals 283 Ohm. Half-cells will be made by hydraulic deep drawing and welded by electron-beam (EBW). A stamping tool for hydraulic deep drawing of the half-cells and a set of technological tools for probing of EBW of two half-cells have been designed. Mechanical properties of niobium and model material (Cu, Al) were investigated. Cryogenic system for low temperature RF tests of the SC single-cell cavity was successfully tested at 4.2 K. Coupling device for RF measurement of the single-cell SC niobium cavity was synthesized and manufactured – the measured standing wave ratio is about 1.01-1.07. Warm RF tests with etalon single-cell cavity were made: fundamental frequency – 1.273 GHz, quality factor (warm) – 28·103.

  According to the design of the IREN facility the system of thermostatting of LUE-200 linac sections is developed. Rated values of linac beam power depend basically on a microwave power input and stability of the phase. The latter is sustained by means of thermostatic control for the sections subject to the powerful microwave warming-up. Demanded both high accuracy of stabilization and low settling time of temperature for linac modes define development of the control system. The precise system of thermostatic control in which composition the programmable PID-controller and the platinum resistance thermometer with accuracy of 0.1%, and also thyristor regulators of heating power up to 15 kVА has been adapted for modes of the IREN microwave facility. The advanced system allows to control both power of heating and a flow of cooling water. The system supervises and changes over modes of the accelerated warming-up and controllable heating and cooling. Both high accuracy of the thermostat and energy saving at a smooth settling of temperature and at the subsequent long-term thermostabilization are substantially improved.

  This paper concerns the investigation of different types of input power cell for S-band RF electron deflector. This device serving for slice emittance diagnostics is a disc-loaded waveguide which operates with TE11-like wave in traveling wave regime with 120 deg phase shift per cell. Since this deflector meets the restriction on its length and has to provide high enough deflecting potential to a particle during its flight time it is significant to increase the transversal field strength in coupling cell or to shorten it so that the deflecting potential remains constant. The total structure consists of 14 regular cells and two couplers. As it is now all cells have the same length equal to D=33.34 mm and the field in couplers is lower than that of regular cells. In this paper different length are considered and numerically simulated in order to choose the best one.

  The paper focuses on the project of the electron beam closed orbit measurement system at SR source SIBERIA-2 realizing at present time at Kurchatov Institute. The main purpose of new closed orbit measurement system creation is an improvement of the electron beam diagnostic system at storage ring. In addition, it will be a part of fast feedback system which will damp the distortions of the closed orbit at SIBERIA-2. This system provides continuous measurements of the electron beam closed orbit during storing, ramping and operation for users. Besides, with the help of the system it is possible to carry out turn-by-turn measurements of the electron beam trajectory during injection process. The paper describes the new orbit measurement system, the principle of operation and its technical characteristics.

  The Photo Injector Test facility at DESY, Zeuthen site (PITZ) is the test stand of the electron source for the European X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL). The main goal of the facility is the detailed characterization of the electron bunch parameters produced by the RF photo-cathode gun. Characterization of the bunch longitudinal properties such as bunch length or longitudinal phase space earlier was done using a streak camera, which measures the Cherenkov light produced by electron bunches passing through aerogel radiators. Recently, a Transverse Deflecting Structure (TDS) and a Second High Energy Dispersive Arm (HEDA2) were installed in the PITZ beamline. They will enable time resolved measurements of the electron bunch with much better time resolution than the streak camera system. The first results of the commissioning of the HEDA2 section at PITZ are presented in this contribution.

  AIRIX is a linear accelerator dedicated to X-ray flash radiography at CEA's hydrotest facility. It has been designed to generate an intense X-ray pulse using a 2 kA, 19 MeV and 60 ns electron beam. The electron beam transport in the accelerator is insured by the knowledge of the dynamic and dimensional characteristics of the beam created downstream the injector. These characteristics are assessed from a measurement chain, established by adapted optics and an intensified camera, aiming at observing the Cerenkov radiation produced during the interaction of electrons with a mylar target placed in the beam. This paper deals with the characterization, and comparison with the previous model, of a new intensified camera which was experimentally tested on AIRIX during an injector characterization campaign. This allowed defining profile and emittance beam characteristics. The obtained results are promising and revealed very interesting properties in particular in term of dynamic, temporal resolution, linearity and signal-to-noise ratio.

A 3MeV DC Electron beam accelerator has been developed at Electron Beam Center, BARC, Mumbai, India. PLC based distributed control system has been incorporated for the control of the accelerator. A touch screen user interface (HMI) based control system provides a single point control of the whole accelerator. The accelerator operation data is stored in the memory Flash card of the HMI. The Accelerator has many subsystems such as scan magnet supply to scan the electron beam, Chiller unit to supply chilled water to the accelerator for cooling,vacuum system to maintain the vacuum inside the beam line,high voltage unit to generate the EHV for electron acceleration and other support system. All the above subsystems have to be controlled from the central location in order to operate the accelerator safely. Each of the subsystem has been controlled by a PLC controller independently and their control and safety is ensured by the program logic algorithm. After each of the subsystem has been tested separately all the PLCs are connected to the central PLC on modbus RS232 and modbus TCP-IP. The main central PLC has been programmed to fetch the data from individual subsystems PLCs and provide control and monitoring of the accelerator. In auto mode of operation setting the accelerator parameters operates all the subsystems automatically.

  Faraday Cups have been used as diagnostic tools to measure the charged particle beam current directly. Up to now, different designs have been introduced for this purpose. In this work a new design of Faraday Cup for ES-200 accelerator, a proton electrostatic accelerator which is installed at Shahid Beheshti University, has been performed. FC's dimensions and desirable material were considered Based on the ES-200 beam characteristics (maximum energy of 200 keV and maximum current of 500 mkA). Thickness and dimensions of FC has been calculated by SRIM code according to the range of proton and induced electrons. MCNPX Monte Carlo code was used in order to simulate the angular dispersion and flux of back scattered and secondary electrons that are produced in collision of energetic protons. The Appropriate FC geometry specifications have been calculated by using MCNPX code. Final Simulation and validation of the FC performance has been done by using CST Studio package. In addition, the heat power generated due to proton collision with FC has been calculated analytically and the required cooling system has been designed by ANSYS. Results showed that the new designed Faraday Cup has a good performance to measure the proton beam produced by ES-200 ion accelerator.
