Interpretation of data from beam position monitors is a crucial part of the reliable operation of European XFEL. The interpretation of beam positions is often handled by a physical model, which can be prone to modeling errors or can lead to the high complexity of the computational model. In this paper, we show two data-driven approaches that provide insights into the operation of the SASE beamlines at European XFEL. We handle the analysis as a data-driven problem, separate it from physical peculiarities and experiment with available data based only on our empirical evidence and the data.

  The storage ring lattice of SPring-8-II has been under optimization towards a low emittance of around 50 pmrad, which was initially set at 150 pmrad*. The optimization concept is based on the effective use of extra-radiation damping from damping wigglers installed in the four long straight sections each 30 m long in length. For this purpose, we have been re-optimizing the linear and nonlinear optics so as to reduce the radiation loss from the bending magnets. In parallel, since the emittance variation due to the gap change of the IDs can be an obstacle for conducting precise experiments, we are investigating a new passive method to suppress the emittance variation without any feedback system. In the paper, we report on these details.

  The XUV and soft X-ray free-electron laser FLASH at DESY is capable of operating two undulator beamlines simultaneously with up to several thousand bunches per second. It is driven by a normal conducting RF photo-cathode gun and a superconducting L-band linac. FLASH is currently undergoing a substantial refurbishment and upgrade program (FLASH2020+). The first 9-months installation shutdown started in November 2021. Here we report on the operation in 2021 and present main upgrades during the ongoing shutdown.

TUPOPT006 The New FLASH1 Beamline for the FLASH2020+ Project FEL, electron, photon, dipole 1010
 
  • M. Vogt, J. Zemella
    DESY, Hamburg, Germany
 
  The 2nd stage of the FLASH2020+ project will be an upgrade of the FLASH1 beamline, downstream of the injector/linac section FLAH0 which is currently being upgraded. The currently existing beamline drives the original planar fixed gap SASE undulators from the TTF-2 setup, a THz undulator that uses the spent electron beam and deflects the e-beam into a dump beamline capable of safely dumping several thousand bunches per second. The updated beamline has been designed for EEHG seeding with 2 modulators, 3 chicanes, and a helical Apple-III undulator beamline as seeding radiator, followed by a transverse deflecting (S-band) structure for longitudinal diagnostics. The separation of the electron beam from the FEL beam will be moved upstream w.r.t. the old design to create more space for the photon diagnostics and will be achieved by a 5 deg double-bend-almost-achromat. To allow enable high power THz radiation output from a moderately compressed seeding beam, a post compressor will be installed. The capability of dumping the the long bunch trains safely may and will not be compromised by the design. This article describes the conceptional and some technical and details of the beamline.

  X-ray free-electron lasers (FEL) have contributed to many frontier applications of nanoscale science which benefit from its extraordinary properties. During FEL commissioning, the beam status optimization especially orbit correction is particularly significant for FEL amplification. For example, the deviation between beam orbit and the magnetic center of undulator can affect the interaction between the electron beam and the FEL pulse. Usually, FEL commissioning requires a lot of effort for multi-dimensional parameters optimization in a time-varying system. Therefore, advanced algorithms are needed to facilitate the commissioning procedure. In this paper, we propose an online method to optimize the FEL power and transverse coherence by using a twin delayed deep deterministic policy gradient (TD3) algorithm. The algorithm exhibits more stable learning convergence and improves learning performance because the overestimation bias of policy gradient methods is suppressed.

  The undulator systems at the European XFEL consist of two hard X-ray systems, SASE1 and SASE2, and one soft X-ray system, SASE3. All three systems are equipped with planar undulators using permanent neodymium magnets. These systems allow the generation of linearly polarized radiation in the horizontal plane. In order to generate variable polarization radiation in the soft X-ray range, an afterburner is currently being implemented behind the SASE3 planar undulator system. It consists of four APPLE-X helical undulators. The project, called SASE 3 Variable Polarization, is close to being put into operation. All four helical undulators have been installed in the tunnel during the 2021-2022 winter shutdown. This paper describes the status of the project and the steps toward its commissioning. It also presents lessons learned during the implementation of the project.

In order to allow THz pump/X-ray probe experiments at full bunch repetition rate for users at the European XFEL, the Photo Injector Test Facility at DESYin Zeuthen (PITZ) is building a prototype of an accelerator-based THz source. The goal is to generate THz SASE FEL radiation with a mJ energy level per bunch using an undulator driven by the electron beam from PITZ. Therefore, the existing PITZ beam line is extended into a tunnel annex downstream of the existing accelerator tunnel. The final design of the beam line extension consists of a bunch compressor, a collimation system and a beam dump in the PITZ tunnel. In the tunnel annex one LCLS-I undulator is installed for the production of the THz radiation with a quadrupole triplet in front of it for matching the beam parameters for the FEL process. Behind the undulator two screen stations couple out the THz radiation, for measurements of bunch compression, pulse energy or spatial distribution. A dipole separates the electron from the THz beam and a quadrupole doublet transports the electron beam to the beam dump. The installation progress will be presented.

  The magnetic bunch compressor was designed as part of a THz accelerator source being developed at the Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ) as a prototype for pump-probe experiments at the European XFEL. As an electron bunch is compressed to achieve higher bunch currents for the THz source, the beam dynamics in the bunch compressor was studied by numerical simulations. A start-to-end simulation optimizer including coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) effects has been developed by combining the use of ASTRA, OCELOT, and GENESIS to support the design of the THz source prototype. In this paper we present simulation results to explore the possibility of improving the performance of the THz FEL at PITZ by using the developed bunch compressor.

  The free-electron laser (FEL) user facility FLASH at DESY is currently undergoing an upgrade which involves the transformation of one of its beamlines to allow for external seeding via so-called Echo-Enabled Harmonic Generation (EEHG). With this seeding technique it will be possible to provide stable, longitudinal coherent and intense radiation in the XUV and soft X-ray regime at high repetition rate. To ensure an efficient FEL amplification process, sustainable energy exchange between the electrons and the electromagnetic field in the undulator is mandatory. Adequate adjustment of the undulator strength along the beamline allows to compensate for electron energy loss and to preserve the resonance condition. The impact of this undulator tapering on the temporal and spectral characteristics on the EEHG FEL radiation at 4 nm is investigated by means of numerical simulations performed with the FEL code GENESIS 1.3, version 4. Different tapering methods are examined and it is shown that specific tapering of the undulator strength allows to exceed the FEL saturation power while maintaining a clear temporal and spectral shape of the FEL pulse.

  An accelerator-based THz source is under development at the Photo Injector Test Facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ). The facility can produce high brightness electron beams with high charge and small emittance. Currently, a study on development of a tunable high-power THz SASE FEL for supporting THz-pump, X-ray-probe experiments at the European XFEL is underway. An LCLS-I undulator, a magnetic chicane bunch compressor, and THz pulse diagnostics have been installed downstream the previously existing setup of the PITZ beamline. Additional to the SASE FEL, a possibility to generate superradiant THz undulator radiation from short electron bunches is under investigation, which is the focus in this study. Numerical simulations of the superradiant THz radiation by using sub-picosecond electron bunches with energy of 6 - 22 MeV and bunch charge up to 2 nC produced from the PITZ accelerator are performed. The results show that the radiation with a spectral range of 0.5 to 9 THz and a pulse energy in the order of sub-uJ can be obtained. The results from this study can be used as a benchmark for the future development.

  A linear accelerator system at the PBP-CMU Electron Linac Laboratory is used as an electron source for generating coherent THz radiation and MIR-FEL. To achieve high power THz radiation, the super-radiant technique using pre-bunched electrons and undulator magnet is utilized. In this study, we investigate the generation of such radiation with comparable properties as the FEL. The beamline composes of a 180-degree magnetic bunch compressor, a 2 m-electromagnet undulator, quadrupole magnets and diagnostic devices. This work includes the undulator design and investigation on properties of electron beam and THz radiation. Based-on the results of beam dynamic study, the optimized electron beams have an energy in a range of 10-16 MeV, a bunch charge of 100 pC, and a bunch length of 300 fs. The radiation with frequency covering from 0.5 to 3 THz yields a peak power of 5.21 MW at 1.15 THz. This information was used as an initial parameter for undulator design by using the CST-EM Studio software. It has 19.5 periods with a period length of 100 mm. The design results show that the maximum magnetic field is 0.2317 T. The results of this study are used as the guideline for construction of the undulator and the THz-FEL beamline.

  At the PBP-CMU Electron Linac Laboratory, the system to generate MIR-FEL using the electron linac has been developed. In this contribution, the design and simulation results of the MIR-FEL generation system are presented. The system is designed as the oscillator-FEL type consisting of two mirrors and a 1.6-m permanent planar undulator. The middle of the undulator is determined as the laser beam waist position. Both two mirrors are the concave gold-coated copper mirrors placing upstream and downstream the optical cavity, which has a total length of 5.41 m. The FEL is designed to coupling out at a hole with diameter of 2 mm on the upstream mirror. The optical cavity is optimized to obtain high FEL gain and high FEL power using GENESIS 1.3 simulation code. The electron beam with energy of 25 MeV is used in the consideration. As a result, the MIR-FEL with central wavelength of 13.01 ’m is obtained. The optimum upstream and downstream mirror curvatures are 3.091 m and 2.612 m, respectively, which give the Rayleigh length of 0.631 m. This optical cavity yields the power coupling ratio of 1:1000 and the FEL gain of up to 40%. The extracted MIR-FEL peak power in 100 kW scale is obtained at the coupling hole. The construction of the practical MIR-FEL system is conducted based on the results from this study.

  Funding: This work was supported by NSF grant PHY-1734215 and DOE grant No. DE-SC0009914 and DE-SC0021190. The undulator construction has been carried out under SBIR/STTR DE-SC0017102 and DE-SC0018559.
Free electron lasers are an attractive option for high average and peak power radiation in the THz gap, a region of the electromagnetic spectrum where radiation sources are scarce, as the required beam and undulator parameters are readily achievable with current technology. However, slippage effects require the FEL to be driven with relatively long and low current electron bunches, limiting amplification gain and output power. Previous work demonstrated that a waveguide could be used to match the radiation and e-beam velocities in a meter-long strongly-tapered helical undulator, resulting in 10\% energy extraction from an ultrashort 200 pC, 5.5 MeV electron beam. We present simulations for a follow-up experiment targeting higher frequencies with improvements to the e-beam transport including a permanent magnet chicane for strong beam compression. FEL simulations show >20\% extraction efficiency from a 125 pC, 7.4 MeV electron beam at 0.32 THz.

  Two, four, and even eight bunches were accelerated through the copper linac. Two and four bunches were delivered successfully to photon experiments in both the hard (HXR) and soft (SXR) LCLS x-ray lines. In this paper we will concentrate on the more challenging issues, such as: the BPM deconvolution for both bunches, RF kicks at longer separations, tuning challenges, bridging the communications gap between the photon and electron side, the lower bunch charges for the eight bunch case, and rapid timing scans over several ns. We will describe some of the developed solutions and plans for the rest.

  LCLS copper linac primarily operates in a single bunch mode with a repetition rate of 120 Hz. Presently, several in-house projects and LCLS user experiments require double- and multi-pulse trains of X-rays, with inter-pulse delay spanning between 0.35 and 220 ns. We discuss beam control improvements to the copper linac using ultra-fast stripline kicker, as well as additional photon diagnostics. We especially focus on a case of double-pulse mode, with 218 ns separation.

In this paper we’ll describe the FAST-GREENS experimental program where a 4 m-long strongly tapered helical undulator with a seeded prebuncher is used in the high gain TESSA regime to convert a significant fraction (up to 10 %) of energy from the 240 MeV electron beam from the FAST linac to coherent 515 nm radiation. We’ll also discuss the longer term plans for the setup where by embedding the undulator in an optical cavity matched with the high repetition rate from the superconducting accelerator (3,9 MHz), a very high average power laser source can be obtained. Eventually, the laser pulses can be redirected onto the relativistic electrons to generate by inverse compton scattering a very high flux of circularly polarized gamma rays for polarized positron production.

  Micron-level alignment of the undulator line is required for successful operation of linear accelerator based high gain free electron lasers to produce powerful radiation at X-rays’ wavelengths. Such precision in the straightness of the trajectory allows for an optimal transverse superposition between the electrons and the photon beam. This is extremely challenging and can only be achieved via beam-based techniques. In this paper we will report on the dispersion-free steering approach implemented at SwissFEL, that helped achieving improved performance for both the hard and soft X-ray beamlines.

Seeding of free-electron lasers (FELs) with external laser pulses triggers the microbunching process such that the spectrotemporal properties of coherently emitted FEL radiation are under better control compared to self-amplified spontaneous emission. High-gain harmonic generation (HGHG) based on the interaction of electrons with a single laser pulse is routinely applied at a few FELs, and echo-enabled harmonic generation (EEHG) with a twofold laser-electron interaction has been demonstrated. Both schemes can be adopted in storage rings for the coherent emission of ultrashort radiation pulses. Coherent harmonic generation (CHG) is the counterpart to HGHG without FEL gain. It has been employed at several storage rings and presently provides ultrashort pulses in the vacuum ultraviolet regime at the 1.5-GeV electron storage ring DELTA operated by the TU Dortmund University. EEHG, which allows to reach higher harmonics of the seed wavelength, has not yet been implemented at any storage ring but is pursued at DELTA as an upgrade plan. The paper presents the layout of the envisaged EEHG facility, and it reviews simulation studies and the technical progress towards EEHG seeding at DELTA.

TUPOMS013 Novel High Repetition Rate CW SRF Linac-Based Multispectral Photon Source FEL, electron, linac, radiation 1427
 
  • P.E. Evtushenko
    HZDR, Dresden, Germany
 
  We discuss a design of a CW SRF linac-based photon facility for the generation of MIR-THz and VUV pulses at high repetition rates of up to 1 MHz. The MIR-THz sources would cover the frequency range from 0.1 to 30 THz with the pulse energies of a few 100 µJ. The use of the CW SRF linac and the radiation source architecture will allow for high flexibility in the pulse repetition rate. Conventional superradiant THz sources, driven by electron bunches shorter than the radiation wavelength, would cover the wavelength range from 0.1 THz to about 2.5 THz. A different approach is developed to extend the operation of the superradiant undulators well beyond the few THz. For this, a longitudinally modulated electron bunch would be used to achieve significant bunching factors at higher frequencies. The proposed VUV FEL would use the HGHG FEL scheme. It will allow the construction of a unique, fully coherent, high repetition rate source operated with about 30 µJ pulse energy at the first harmonic in the design wavelength range. An FEL oscillator, operating at a wavelength 3-5 times longer than the HGHG system, can generate the seed required for the high repetition rate HGHG scheme.

TUPOMS019 Collimation Strategy for the Low-Emittance PETRA IV Storage Ring kicker, collimation, injection, emittance 1445

  The beam-intensity losses in the proposed PETRA IV electron storage ring that will replace DESY’s synchrotron light source PETRA III will be dominated by the Touschek effect due to the high bunch density. The beam lifetime will only be in the range of 5 h in the timing mode (80 high-intensity bunches) leading to a maximum power loss of ~170 mW along the storage ring (excluding injection losses). To avoid the demagnetization of the permanent-magnet undulators and combined-function magnets, this radiation-sensitive hardware has to be shielded against losses as well as possible. Such shielding elongates the lifetime of the hardware and consequently reduces the time and the resources that are spent on maintenance once PETRA IV is operational. This contribution presents options for collimator locations, e.g., at the dispersion bump in the achromat cell, to reduce the exposure to losses from the Touschek effect and the injection process. This contribution also quantifies the risk of damaging the installed collimation system in case of hardware failure, e.g., RF cavity or quadrupole failure, since the beam with an emittance of 20 pm could damage collimators if there is no emittance blow-up.

Two new undulator lines have been installed as part of the Linac Coherent Light Source upgrade (LCLSII) at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. One undulator line, composed of 21 horizontally polarizing undulator segments, is dedicated to producing Soft X-Rays (SXR). The other line, composed of 32 vertically polarizing undulator segments, is dedicated to producing Hard X-Rays (HXR). The devices were installed, and the control system was deployed in 2019. Commissioning culminated with the achievement of first light from the HXR undulator in the Summer of 2020 and from the SXR undulator in the Fall of 2020. Since then, both undulator lines have been successfully providing x-Rays to user experiments with very limited downtime. In this paper, we first describe the strategies utilized to simplify the deployment, commissioning, and maintenance of the control system. Such strategies include scripts for automated components calibration and monitoring, a modular software structure, and debugging manuals for accelerator operators. Then, we discuss lessons learned which could be applicable to similar projects in the future.

In this proceeding we present start-to-end simulations of the LCLS-II-HE free electron laser. The HE project will extend the LCLS-II superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) linac from 4 GeV to 8 GeV in order to produce hard x-rays from the eponymous hard x-ray undulators (26 mm period). At the same time, soft x-ray performance is preserved (and extended into the tender regime) by using longer period undulators (56 mm period) than were originally built for LCLS-II (39 mm period). Here we use high-fidelity numerical particle simulations to study the performance of several SASE beamline configurations, and compare the resulting x-ray energy, power, duration, and transverse properties. Using the LCLS-II normal-conducting gun, we find that the x-ray pulse energy drops off rapidly above ~15 keV, while using the lower emittance beam from a proposed SRF gun, we improve the cutoff to ~20 keV.

WEIYSP1 New Designs of Short-Period Undulators for Producing High-Brightness Radiation in Synchrotron Light Sources vacuum, radiation, cryogenics, synchrotron 1624
 
  • E.J. Wallén
    LBNL, Berkeley, California, USA
 
  We review modern state-of-the-art and new concepts of undulators planned for new generation light sources. Both superconducting and permanent-magnet-based insertion devices feature unique solutions to reach high precisely tunable fields in the period range of 10-18 mm, 2-4 meters in length and with the ID gaps of less than 5 mm. The same quest for small gaps and shortest possible period length exists also for elliptically polarizing undulators. A review of new designs in Europe, Asia and Americas will be in the focus of this presentation.

We study a single electron, circulating in the Fermilab IOTA storage ring and interacting with an undulator through single and multi-photon emissions. The focus of this research is on single-photon and two-photon undulator emissions. We begin by using one Single Photon Avalanche Diode (SPAD) detector to detect the undulator radiation photons and search for possible deviations from the expected Poissonian photon statistics. Then, we go on to use a two-photon interferometer consisting of two SPAD detectors separated by a beam splitter. This allows to test if there is any correlation in the detected photon pairs. In addition, the photocount arrival times can be used to track the longitudinal motion of a single electron and to compare it with simulations. This allowed us to determine several dynamical parameters of the storage ring such as the rf cavity phase jitter and the dependence of the synchrotron motion period on amplitude.

A transverse gradient undulator (TGU) is a key component compensating for the relatively large energy spread of Laser Wakefield Accelerator (LWFA)-generated electron beams for realizing a compact Free Electron Laser (FEL). A superconducting TGU with 40 periods has been fabricated at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). In this contribution, we report that the superconducting TGU has been commissioned with nominal operational parameters at an off-line test bench. An experimental set-up for mapping the magnetic field on a two-dimensional grid in the TGU gap has been employed for the magnetic characterization. We show the first preliminary results of these measurements showing the longitudinal quality, the transverse gradient and the transient behaviour of the superconducting TGU field.

  Optical Stochastic Cooling (OSC) has demonstrated its ability to reduce the three-dimensional phase-space emittance of an electron beam by applying a small corrective kick to the beam each turn. By modifying the shape and timing of these kicks we can produce specific longitudinal beam distributions. Two methods are introduced; single-pulse modulation, where the longitudinal profile of the OSC pulse is amplified by some function, as well as multiple-turn modulation, where the overall strength or phase is varied depending on the synchrotron oscillation phase. The shaping techniques are demonstrated using a model of OSC developed in the ELEGANT particle-tracking code program.

  In support of the Optical Stochastic Cooling (OSC) experiment at IOTA, we implemented a high-fidelity model of OSC in ELEGANT. The element is generalizable to any OSC experiment and captures three main behaviors; (i) the longitudinal time of flight OSC, (ii) the effects between the transverse motion of particles in the beam and the transverse distribution of undulator radiation, and (iii) the incoherent contributions of neighboring particles. Together these produce a highly accurate model of OSC and were benchmarked using the results from the IOTA OSC experiment.

  The European XFEL has planned to perform pump-probe experiments using its X-ray pulses and THz pulses. A promising concept to provide the THz pulses with a pulse repetition rate identical to that of the X-ray pulses is to generate them using an accelerator-based THz source. The THz source requires a bunch compressor in order to manipulate the longitudinal phase space of the electron bunch to match with various options of THz radiation generation. This paper presents and discusses simulation study of the bunch compressor for the THz source.

  X-rays with high brilliance and low phase errors are generated in the Cryogenic Permanent Magnet Undulator (CPMU) currently in use at the ESRF. In the event of a failure of the cryogenic cooling the beam will continue to deposit power into the module, even when the undulator jaws are fully opened. This could lead to unacceptably high heating of the magnet blocks which could cause their demagnetisation. Impedance simulations were performed using IW2D and CST to compute the power deposited by the beam in both the closed and open jaw settings. This was followed by thermal simulations to compute the expected temperature rise. These results will help advise the operational procedure in the event of a cooling failure.

  Superconducting Undulators (SCUs) can produce higher photon flux and cover a wider photon energy range compared to permanent magnet undulators (PMUs) with the same vacuum gap and period length. To build the know-how to implement superconducting undulators for future upgrades of the European XFEL facility, two magnetic measurement test stands named SUNDAE 1 and 2 (Superconducting UNDulAtor Experiment) are being developed. SUNDAE1 will facilitate research and development on magnet design thanks to the possibility of training new SCU coils and characterizing their magnetic field. The experimental setup will allow the characterization of magnets up to 2m in length. These magnets will be immersed in a Helium bath at 2K or 4K temperature. In this article, we describe the experimental setup and highlight its expected performances.

  European XFEL foresees a superconducting undulator (SCU) afterburner in the SASE2 hard X-ray beamline. It consists of six 5m-long undulator modules with a 5mm vacuum gap, where each module contains two 2m-long coils and one phase shifter. Prior to installation, the magnetic field must be mapped appropriately. Two magnetic measurement test stands named SUNDAE 1 and 2 (Superconducting UNDulAtor Experiment) are being developed at European XFEL. While SUNDAE1 will be a vertical test stand to measure SCU coils up to two meters with Hall probes in a liquid or superfluid helium bath, SUNDAE2 will measure the SCU coils assembled in the final cryostat. This contribution presents the development status of SUNDAE2 and its main requirements.

  The ESRF Extremely Brilliant Source (ESRF-EBS) is on operation for Users since August 2020 after 20 months of shutdown. This first of a kind fourth generation high energy synchrotron is based on a Hybrid Multi-Bend Achromat lattice. The main goal of the ESRF-EBS is to reduce the horizontal emittance, which leads to a signifi-cant increase of the X-ray source brilliance. To cover the intensive demand of short period small gap undulators at ESRF-EBS, a new design for a 2 m Cryogenic Permanent Magnet Undulator (CPMU) has been developed. Six CPMUs will be installed in the next years; the first two CPMUs have been constructed and actually used on ID15 and ID16 beamline, the third one is under con-structing. An intensive refurbishment work has been done on the existing insertion devices to adapt them to the new accelerator which has shorter straight section and closer dipoles to the IDs than in the old one. This contribution will review the development, construc-tion and commissioning of the new CPMUs, and the refurbishment work done on the existing ones to adapt them to the new accelerator.

  At BESSY II, two new beamlines for RIXS and for X-Ray-microscopy demand a short period variably polarizing undulator. For this purpose, the first in-vacuum APPLE undulator worldwide is under construction. The parameters are as follows: period length=32mm, magnetic length=2500mm, minimum gap=7mm. The design incorporates a force compensation scheme as proposed by two of the authors at the SRI2018. All precision parts of the drive chain are located in air. New transverse slides for the transversal slit adjustment have been developed and tested. Optical micrometers measure the gap and shift positions, similar to the system of the CPMU17 at BESSY II. They provide the signals for motor feedback loops. A new UHV-compatible soldering technique, as developed with industry, relaxes fabrication tolerances of magnets and magnet holders and simplifies the magnet assembly. A 10-period prototype has been setup for lifetime tests of the new magnetic keeper design. The paper describes first results of the prototype and other key-components and summarizes the status of the full-scale undulator.

  The worldwide first in-vacuum elliptical undulator, IVUE32, is being developed at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin. The 2.5 m long device with a period length of 3.2 cm and a minimum gap of about 7 mm is to be installed in the BESSY II storage ring. It will deliver radiation in the soft X-ray range to several beamlines. The proximity of the undulator structure to the electron beam makes the device susceptible to wakefield effects which can influence beam stability. A complete understanding of its impedance characteristics is required prior to installation and operation, as unforeseen heating of components could have catastrophic consequences. To understand and measure the IVU’s impedance characteristics a Goubau-Line test stand is being designed. A Goubau-line is a single wire transmission line for high frequency surface waves with a transverse electric field resembling that of a charged particle beam out to a certain radial distance. A concept optimized for bench testing IVUE32-components will be discussed, microwave simulations will be presented together with first measurements from a test stand prototype.

The production of low emittance positron beams for future linear and circular lepton colliders, like CLIC or FCC-ee, requires high-field damping wigglers. Just as compact free-electron lasers (FELs) require high-field but as well short-period undulators to emit high energetic, coherent photons. Using high-temperature superconductors (HTS) in the form of coated ReBCO tape superconductors allows higher magnetic field amplitudes at 4 K and larger operating margins as compared to low-temperature superconductors, like Nb-Ti. This contribution discusses the development work on superconducting vertical racetrack (VR) undulator coils, wound from coated ReBCO tape superconductors. The presented VR coils were modularly designed with a period length of 13 mm. Powering tests in liquid nitrogen of multiple vertical racetrack coils were performed at CERN. The results from the measurements are presented for three VR coils and compared with electromagnetic simulations.

  At the European XFEL, a superconducting afterburner is considered for the SASE2 hard X-ray beamline. It will consist of six undulator modules. Within each module, two superconducting undulators (SCU) 2 m long are present. Such an afterburner will enable photon energies above 30 keV. A high field quality of the SCU is crucial to guarantee the quality of the electron beam trajectory, which is directly related to the spectral quality of the emitted free-electron laser (FEL) radiation. Therefore, the effects of the SCU’s mechanical imperfections on the resultant magnetic field have to be carefully characterized. In this contribution, we present possible mechanical errors affecting the undulator structure, and we perform an analytical study aimed at determining the tolerances on these errors for our SCUs.

  European XFEL has three undulator lines based on permanent magnet technology: two for hard and one for soft X-rays. The planar undulators can be tuned to cover the acceptance in terms of photon beam energy of the respective photon beamlines: 3.6-25 keV (SASE1/2) and 0.25-3 keV (SASE3) by changing the electron energy range between 11.5 GeV and 17.5 GeV and/or the undulator gap. In order to obtain different polarization modes, as required by the soft X-ray beamlines, a helical afterburner consisting of four APPLE X undulators designed by PSI has been installed at the downstream end of the present SASE3 undulator system. The European XFEL plans to develop the technology of superconducting undulators, which is of strategic importance for the facility upgrade. In order to extend the energy range above 30 keV a superconducting undulator afterburner is foreseen to be installed at the end of SASE2. This contribution presents the current status and the planned upgrades of the undulator lines at European XFEL.

  Pulsed wire method (PWM)is used for undulator characterisation. Scilab Xcos simulation model is designed for the analyses of data obtained by PWM. The data obtained from PWM is given as input to the model and its output gives the magnetic field of the undulator. Scilab Xcos model can also be utilized for determining the phase error of the undulator.

  Superconducting technology provides the possibility to develop short period, small bore undulators that can generate much larger magnetic fields than alternative technologies. This may allow an XFEL with optimised superconducting undulators to cover a broader range of wavelengths than traditional undulators. At STFC, we have undertaken work to design and build a prototype superconducting helical undulator module with parameters suitable for use on a future XFEL facility. This work includes the design of an undulator with 13 mm period and 5 mm magnetic gap, as well as the supporting cryogenic and vacuum systems required for operation. We present here the updated design of the superconducting helical undulator that represents the results of prototyping work. Improved methods for manufacturing the undulator former and winding the superconducting wire have been developed. The measured mechanical tolerances and the impact on the field quality will be presented. The fields produced by prototype undulators will soon be measured using a Hall probe system.

Flat energy distribution Laser Compton scattering (F-LCS) gamma-ray beam, which has a flat distribution in the energy spectrum and the spatial distribution with a small beam size, has been developed to study an isotope selective CT Imaging application at the beamline BL1U in UVSOR. We have successfully demonstrated a three-dimensional (3D) isotope-selective CT image by using a conventional LCS gamma-ray beam[1]. However, the conventional LCS beam with a small beam size whose energy spread is narrow can’t excite a few isotopes at the same time. Therefore, we proposed the F-LCS gamma-ray beam by using the Apple-II undulator installed in BL1U in UVSOR to excite a circular motion of the electron beam. An EGS5 simulation shows that a weak magnetic field (K=0.2) can generate an F-LCS beam. The demonstration experiments have been carried out in UVSOR and the spectra of generated LCS beam with different K-values of the undulator were measured. As a result, the measured spectra agreed with the EGS5 simulation. The principle of F-LCS generation and experimental results, including the effect on the stored electron beam, will be presented at the conference.
