ILC Electron Source SULI 2007
Our Simulations • Electron Gun • Solenoidal Field to focus beam • First Subharmonic Buncher (SHB-I) SULI 2007
Photocathode Electron Gun SULI 2007
Beam without solenoidal field SULI 2007
Solenoidal field used to focus beam SULI 2007
Bunching T/4 SULI 2007
Simulations of parameters Gun bias voltage 140-200kV SHB field strength Initial time pulse length 500ps-1ns z Focal length w/o space charge SULI 2007
Bunching as a function of field strength, SHB-I SULI 2007
SHB-I field strength, needed to compress bunch to 577 ps Initial time pulse length, SULI 2007
Conclusions and future work • Modest gun bias voltage (~140 kV) is sufficient. • The possibility of using one SHB instead of two should be investigated. SULI 2007
