Outline • Challenges in high-brightness electron beam generation • Beam manipulation experiments • Bunching • Focusing of ultra-dense beams • Ultra-fast measurements • Computational modeling issues • Exotic electron beam source schemes • Beam-radiation interaction • Opportunities in FEL and Thomson scattering sourcery ORION II Workshop
Electron source: a critical enabling technology • High brightness for radiation production • High peak current for wake (NLC, adv.acc.) work • Ultra-low emittance beams for laser acceleration • HEP specific NLC beam attributes • Beam production is relativistic, one-component, violently accelerating, cold-plasma problem • Some aspects solved in generation, some in compression (sourcery and chicanery…) ORION II Workshop
Attributes of RF Photogun System • Very high gradient 1.6 cell S-band gun • State-of-art after many iterations • Excellent emittance • Pulse length preservation • Emittance compensation • Ferrario scenario • High bandwith photocathode drive laser • High QE, uniform emission photocathode ORION II Workshop
Experimental challenges for ORION in high brightness beam production • High quality photocathodes • Emittance compensation with X-band high gradient linacs • Demonstration of charge-scaled performance • Beam-plasma frequency (density) controls dynamics • Small=>large charge optimized beams can be made in same system • Generate longitudinally tailored pulse (and train) distributions using laser… O.25 nC design simulations (HOMDYN) ORION II Workshop
Laser-based pulse shaping • “Flat-topping” for low emittance • Witness beam generation • Pulse stacking • Longitudinal Fourier plane • Do these shapes survive acceleration and transport? Neptune laser Fourier plane manipulations (autocorrelation) Witness beam generation (UCLA/AWA) ORION II Workshop
NLC e- source requirements • How does ORION pay the rent at NLCTA? • Wavelength specific to driving polarized source (~800 nm) • Stringent gun vacuum • Challenging pulse train requirements • ~100 bunches/train, ~ nC level • 1.4-2.8 nsec separation • Can this be mimicked at ORION (beam splitting, high QE, thermionic) NLC laser layout (J. Frisch) ORION II Workshop
New photoinjectors scalable to short RF wavelength (X-band) • Physics indicates high advantage in moving to high frequency photoinjector • Large technical challenges • Laser • Cooling (lower gradient integrated structure) • RF handling (klystron isolation) • New S-band hybrid structure under development w/industry+UCLA • Initial SW cells coupled to waveguide • Long TW section downstream • X-band at ORION? ORION II Workshop
Pulse compression I: chicane • Chicanes have enabled/will enable enormous strides in wakefield physics and FELs • Chicanes have cutting edge collective physics (diseases) in their own right… Vertical chicane gives artifacts in data… 4 nC compressed beam nearly stopped in plasma (FNAL/UCLA experiment) ORION II Workshop
Collective physics in chicane • Noninertial space-charge • Transverse phase space bifurcation from folding in x-z • Coherent transition radiation • Emittance growth • Microbunching instability • Understanding critical to LC and FEL future… • Many experiments <100 MeV Transverse phase space bifurcation observed at Neptune (S. Anderson) BNL SDL measurement of Microbunchin (W. Grave) ORION II Workshop
Opportunities in chicane physics • Add chicane to ORION? • Full longitudinal tuning flexibility in tandem with negative R56 dogleg • Studies at >300 MeV most interesting niche • New physics? • Coherent edge radiation • Sort out radiative v. velocity field effects 1 mm 1 mm Coherent edge radiation (simulation of UCLA/BNL ATF exp.) ORION II Workshop
Velocity Bunching: a Cure for “The Bends”? • Proposed by Serafini, Ferrario; tool for SASE FEL injector, avoids magnetic compression • Inject emittance-compensated beam at 5-7 MeV into slow-wave linac • Effectively compresses at low energy — good for energy spread control • Perform one-quarter of synchrotron oscillation to compress beam • Gentle, low gradient option • Also “thin-lens” option for ORION • May need for obtaining ultra-small energy spread a la LEAP Longitudinal phase space schematic for velocity bunching ORION II Workshop
Velocity bunching optimization and implementation at ORION • Serafini-Ferrario proposal: long slow-wave structure from tuning w (new source) or k (structure)? • Expensive in structure and real estate • Alternative for ORION: use only short bunching section to split functions of bunching and acceleration • Example buncher: PWT (Neptune model, 14 MW) Simulation of proposed ORION system First linac “catches”beam, second removes energy spread (accel. + phase). 10 pC case. ORION II Workshop
PARMELA simulation of ORION case • Study at nominal design (0.25 nC) Tailored magnetic field for emittance compensation Velocity bunching induces little emittance growth until longitudinal “cross-over” ORION II Workshop

Ultra-fast beam diagnostics: ORION must go beyond the streak camera • Streak camera a mainstay at the picosecond level (see Hogan talk) • Ultra-short beams • Radiation based diagnostics • CTR for macro- and micro-bunching • Very short time structure, no time-resolved “anything else” • Using the beam as a streak camera • RF deflector (LCLS) • Use of linac chirping (T.
