Description
The electron beam degrader in the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) injector at Jefferson Lab serves to generate electron beams with transverse emittance over 10x the nominal values, with the ultimate goal of using degraded electron beams to measure machine acceptance. Electron beams are degraded through multiple scattering in thin carbon foils, and maximum transverse emittance is defined through two collimating apertures. The degrader device was installed in late 2024, with commissioning and first beams on degrader targets during the 2025 physics run. We report on first operation of the degrader device.
