MC02.1 - Photon Sources and Electron Accelerators (Invited)
- Sara Casalbuoni (European XFEL GmbH)
Superconducting undulators (SCUs) can produce higher photon flux and can cover a wider photon energy range compared to permanent magnet undulators (PMUs) with the same vacuum gap and period length. The operational experience of SCUs in accelerators as well as future plans of deploying SCUs in free electron lasers, diffraction limited storage rings and compact light sources will be presented.
SASE studies in the sub-ångström regime, using optimized electron beams, are carried out at varied energy levels according to the present state of the facility, that is, a pulsed mode operating with a 10 Hz repetition 0.6 ms-long bunch train with beam energies between 14 GeV and 17.5 GeV. From simulations nearly Millijoule-level SASE intensity is obtained at a photon energy of 30 keV at 16.3...
