BES Photon Workshop October 2009
• “…the quest for ultimate performance leaves the LINAC-driven light sources as sources for the fourth generation, to replace and complement today’s storage rings.”
• The LINAC-driven light sources include FELs and ERLs.
• The workshop further concludes that MHz repetition rate is needed.

BES Photon Workshop• “This points to the ideal tool kit for assembling an X-
ray source in the future:– A superconducting linear accelerator;
– Various electron guns for injection, with different repetition rates, bunch charges, and
– bunch compression schemes;
– One or more return arcs equipped with a series of sophisticated undulators for
– multiple experiments; and
– Several fast kickers to extract single bunches into long FEL undulators.”

BES Photon Workshop
• “In addition to the demonstration of energy recovery on a quantitative scale, the development of an X-ray ERL, as well as the realization of FEL designs with megahertz pulse rates, is also hindered by the lack of technical developments as far as gun performance is concerned. Today’s guns cannot yet deliver the bunch charges, emittances, and repetition rates required for the full ERL or FEL designs outlined above.”

National AcademiesScientific Assessment of
High-Power Free-Electron Laser Technology
… in the committee’s opinion, the two “tall poles” in the free-electron-laser development “tent” are these:
· An ampere-class cathode-injector combination.
· …
4a. Drive-laser-switched photocathodes are the likely electron source for megawatt-class
free-electron lasers. Photocathodes have been used in accelerator applications for over
two decades; however, they have not reached the level of performance in terms of
quantum efficiency and robustness that will likely be required for a reliable megawatt class free-electron laser.

My Conclusions and Program• A high-brightness, ampere-class-current
electron gun is essential for FLS programs.• It is generally agreed that SRF guns are best
suited for the task, but that a lot of R&D needs to be done.
• BNL and Stony Brook University have a comprehensive program of SRF injector development, involving 3 types of SRF guns and 3 different photocathode technologies.

Why SRF gun?
• High electric field on the cathode for initial small emittance at high charge
• Large total voltage to reduce emittance dilution when bunch is most vulnerable
• Reduce size of RF supply, increase efficiency
• SRF guns are already in operation and are the choice of many new facilities.

More about CASE / ARDD program• The SRF guns are at 112 MHz, 704 MHz and 1.3 GHz.• The photocathode technologies are K2SbCs, GaAs(Cs)
and diamond amplifiers.• A 0.5 ampere, 20 MeV Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) is
in an advanced stage of construction. The ERL will be injected by the 704 MHz superconducting laser-photocathode RF gun, using a load-lock high quantum efficiency photocathode. The ERL employs a unique very-high current accelerating cavity and a novel emittance preserving injection system.

Magnets and stands
The BNL prototype ERL is the major experimental research and development effort towards RHIC II, the electron cooling project for RHIC. The objective is to reduce the risk and costs of the RHIC II project, as well as developing and demonstrating the electron beam parameters required for electron cooling. The prototype will also serve as a test bed for studying issues relevant to very high current ERLs. All quadrupole and dipole magnets are of the warm bore variety. All magnets are to be accurately CNC machined and will be installed on similarly machined bases. A portion of the ring will be mounted on a movable gantry with a total stroke of plus/minus 5cm.

The Design Principles of the BNL/AES Cavity
• All monopole and dipole HOMs propagate into the beam pipes, no trapped modes.
• Fundamental mode is evanescent in beam pipes.
• Large apertures, low frequency reduces HOM power and provides strong cell-to-cell coupling.
• Short cavity-to-cavity transitions can be made with a variety of HOM probes.
• The cavity is stiff (actually too stiff) and stable.

Protects cavity from cathode (prevents Cs migration)

ConclusionsI hope that I have demonstrated:
• We work on high-current (ampere class) components of SRF injectors, photocathodes and ERLs.
• We have several SRF guns and several high QE photocathode R&D projects.
• We are in an advanced state of construction of a 500 mA R&D ERL.
• SRF guns and high QE photocathodes are R&D areas that may be high risk but offer high value and could have significant impact on future light source designs.
