Description
Recent studies have shown that accelerating $+19^{\circ}$ off-crest in all RF cavities in the MAX-IV linac reduces voltage-induced timing jitter from the klystrons. The current bunch compressors in the linac have fixed first-order longitudinal dispersion, and the RF phase is varied to control the amount of compression. Variable bunch compressor designs have been considered at MAX-IV in recent years, these would allow us to regain control over compression while the accelerating phase is fixed to reduce timing jitter. Particle tracking studies have been performed on the MAX-IV linac with the addition of arc-like variable bunch compressors.
