Description
The PERLE (Powerful Energy Recovery Linac for Experiments) project is a high current and high charge testbed for the technologies required to realise future ERLs. A 20 mA electron beam with a bunch charge of 500 pC will be accelerated to 7 MeV by the booster and injected into the ERL. To deliver the beam to the ERL loop, a three-dipole merger with variable momentum compaction has been selected. At this energy, emittance growth is dominated by space charge effects, imposing strict constraints on the beam transport and diagnostic design.
This study presents the design and optimisation of the diagnostic layout within the merger, taking into account instrumentation requirements, spatial constraints, and beam dynamics considerations. Beam tracking is used to evaluate these factors and determine optimal diagnostic positioning based on measurable beam parameters. These findings support the commissioning strategy and tuning procedures of the PERLE injector.
