Description

In the SXFEL injector, the beam stability achieved superior performance, maintaining fluctuations below 0.01% after passing through four S-band accelerating units. However, the stability deteriorated to 0.02% upon exiting the X-band linearizer. To mitigate this degradation, a series of targeted enhancements were implemented, including an extensive upgrade of the low-level RF system’s front-end electronics and the integration of adaptive modulation techniques for input signal optimization. These measures effectively restored and improved the beam stability, achieving precision levels within 0.01%.
