58. Breaking through 100 mA H- ion source output current at SNS (MOYA001)

Baoxi Han (Oak Ridge National Laboratory)

MC1.2 Electron and ion sources, guns, photo injectors, charge breeders

Invited Oral Presentation

The performance of the SNS H- ion source has been improved over many years with a primary emphasis on extending its operational lifetime and enhancing its reliability. Recent research and development efforts have resulted in a significant boost in the output beam current, increasing from the existing capability of ~60 mA to more than 100 mA. This talk will discuss the advancements in design...

38. Coherent nanophotonic electron accelerator (MOYA002)

MC2.6 Other electron accelerators

Invited Oral Presentation

The acceleration of electrons with the help of laser light inside a photonic nanostructure represents a microscopic alternative to microwave-driven accelerators. The main advantage is that the much higher driving facilitates damage thresholds of dielectric materials reaching 10 GV/m. This means that acceleration gradients far in excess of 1 GeV/m should be attainable. Furthermore, the...

76. Operation of FLASH above 1.3 GeV and below 4 nm (MOYA003)

Lucas Schaper (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY)

MC2.4 FELs

Invited Oral Presentation

FLASH is undergoing major modifications in the framework of the FLASH2020+ project.
During the last upgrade phase in 2021/22 alterations to the superconducting linac have been the main priorty. Among other changes two accelerating modules were replaced by modern high gradient versions. This allows to operate FLASH routinely with electron beam energies exceeding 1.3 GeV and thus extends the...

42. Current status of LWFA development towards robust table-top XUV-FEL (MOYA004)

Zhan Jin (The University of Osaka)

MC2.4 FELs

Invited Oral Presentation

In order to develop a stable LWFA based accelerator and demonstrate FEL generation, the unique LWFA platform was constructed in the RIKEN SPring-8 center and systematic experiments have being conducted financially supported by ImPACT (2013-2018) and JST MIRAI (2018-) programs. Although undulator radiation in an XUV spectral range driven by LWFA electron beams was successfully demonstrated on...
