A high temporal stability of produced photon pulses is a key parameter for some classes of experiments, e.g., those using a pump-probe scheme. A longitudinal intra bunch-train feedback system, that reduces the intra bunch-train and the train-to-train arrival time fluctuations down to the sub-10 fs level was implemented at the European X-ray free electron laser (EuXFEL).

For a free-electron laser facility, the longitudinal phase space of the beam is essential to the FEL lasing performance. However, the commonly-used diagnostics device such as the transverse deflecting cavity provides a destructive way to measure the beam longitudinal properties, which is not available during beam delivery. Thus, the convolutional neural network is introduced to construct a...

Optimal FEL gain in a seeded FEL requires the careful alignment of different components.

Electrons in a X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) develop periodic density fluctuations, known as microbunches, which enable the exponential gain of X-ray power in an XFEL. When an electron beam microbunched at a hard X-ray wavelength is kicked, microbunches are often washed out due to the dispersion and R56 of the bend. An achromatic (dispersion-free) bend with small R56, however, can...

Intrabeam scattering (IBS) causes growth of the uncorrelated energy spread of electron bunches due to multiple small-angle Coulomb collisions over long propagation distances. As such, this effect may be a limiting factor for the beam current and therefore for the achievable photon energy in the SASE process.

DEIMOS (Dichroism Experimental Installation for MagnetOptical Spectroscopies) is the beamline built at French Synchrotron SOLEIL facility intended for soft X-rays magnetic and natural dichroism spectroscopies. It has been designed to enable most challenging measurements in terms of X-rays sample sensitivity and signal detection level. The energies accessible on DEIMOS beamline rank from 350 eV...

Good control over the transverse distribution of an electron bunch is crucial for optimising the beam transport through a linear accelerator, and for improving the energy transfer of electrons to photons within the undulators of a free-electron laser (FEL). In order to achieve this, it is necessary to match, as closely as possible, the Twiss parameters of the electron bunch to the design...

Accurate and high resolution detection of the Longitudinal Phase Space (LPS) of the electron beam is a great advantage for operating and setting up a FEL. In the case of the soft X-ray FEL being proposed at the MAX IV synchrotron facility in Lund, this information is mainly supplied by a Transverse Deflecting Cavity (TDC) which is currently being installed and scheduled for commissioning in...

In free electron lasers (FEL) the accumulative effects of wakefields always lead to critical impacts on the electron bunch, resulting in an energy spread and deviation of transverse position. Thus the lasing performance will be decreased. The Shanghai high-repetition-rate XFEL and extreme light facility (SHINE) is under construction and the wakefields estimations are required. The SHINE...
