Compact XFEL

Recent success of using 20 pC electron beam to drive an x-ray FEL at the LCLS has stimulated world-wide interests in using low charge beam (1~20pC) to drive a compact XFEL which delivers ultrashort x-ray pulses (0.1 fs~10 fs).

Is it possible to overcome the fundamental resolution limit arising from the intrinsic beam divergence/emittance?

Longitudinal-to-transverse emittance transfer for storage ring lasing

18

Beam requirement in x-ray FELs

Low geometric emittance

Low energy spread

High peak current

Electron slips back by one radiation wavelength after it travels one undulator period

~1 um emittance with ~1 MeV energy spread and ~kA peak current

19

Storage ring FEL

Beams in storage ring

Large energy spread & Low current

Power gain length at 1nm

PEP-X beam parameters

Low power

Poor transverse coherence

FEL at <1nm is very difficult

20

Current-enhanced SASE (E-SASE) Increase peak current to increase the FEL gain

Suitable for the case when

current energy spread

Is it possible to increase the peak current without increasing the energy spread? Violating Liouville’s theorem?

Limitation

The duration of the current bump is shorter than the slippage length and one needs to frequently use isochronous chicane to shift the radiation to the upstream bumps to sustain the effective interaction

A technique is proposed to manipulate the beam phase space and rearrange the beam’s x distribution according to its initial z distribution

Summary

The longitudinal-to-transverse mapping technique may allow one to break the 1 fs time barrier in ultrashort bunch length measurement

A technique is proposed to significantly increase the beam current without greatly increasing the energy spread

The laser assisted emittance transfer technique can be used to repartitioning the emittance in 6-D phase space so that one might be able to use the beam from a large storage ring to drive a high-gain FEL.
