Description

The X-band Test Area (XTA) is a test accelerator beamline consisting of a 5.5 cell X-band electron gun followed by a 1-m long X-band linac. It delivers an 85 MeV electron beam up to hundreds of pC. Here we report the beam dynamics studies of XTA to prepare it for THz streaking and silicon carbide irradiation experiments. This paper talks about the requirement and the simulation studies to prepare XTA for both experiments.
