Description

A chirper/de-chirper system based on transverse deflecting cavities has been studied for linear longitudinal phase space manipulation. Simulations have shown the efficacy of such a beamline, but scans of initial beam conditions reveal that strong second-order effects induce emittance growth. This computational study identifies the sources of these nonlinearities and assesses their impact on the performance of the de-chirper. Space charge effects were also analyzed to determine operational limitations for potential research applications. Finally, a sensitivity survey was conducted to quantify to the impact of jitter in cavity phase and amplitude as well as variations in quadrupoles strengths.
