Using the optical-klystron effect to increase and measure the intrinsic beam energy spread in free-electron-laser facilities

Eugenio Ferrari

We present a setup based on the optical klystron concept, consisting of two undulator modules separated by a magnetic chicane, that addresses two issues in free-electron-laser (FEL) facilities. On the one hand, it allows increasing the intrinsic energy spr ...

Novel linear analysis for a gyrotron oscillator based on a spectral approach

Stefano Alberti, Minh Quang Tran, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Jérémy Genoud, Trach-Minh Tran

With the aim of gaining a better physical insight into linear regimes in gyrotrons, a new linear model was developed. This model is based on a spectral approach for solving the self-consistent system of equations describing the wave-particle interaction in ...

Microwave Cavity Characterization for Rubidium Frequency Standards

Anton Evgeniev Ivanov

We report our studies on the new designed magnetron-type microwave cavity operating in the TE011-like mode, at the rubidium hyperfine ground-state frequency of about 6.835 GHz. The properties of the cavity resonance were studied as a function of cavity tem ...

Start-up scenario studies in gyrotron oscillator using a novel linear and spectral code

Stefano Alberti, Minh Quang Tran, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Jérémy Genoud, Trach-Minh Tran

A linear and spectral model has recently been developed [1], describing the self-consistent wave-particle interaction in a gyrotron oscillator. The spectral approach, compared to commonly used time-evolution approaches, has the possibility to describe all ...

Gyrotron physics from linear to chaotic regimes: experiment and numerical modeling

Falk Hans Braunmüller

Gyrotrons belong to the family of high-power coherent radiation sources known as Electron Cyclotron Masers (ECMs) and are based on the physical mechanism of the ECM-instability, converting electron rotational kinetic energy into coherent electromagnetic ra ...

Dynamic nuclear polarization by frequency modulation of a tunable gyrotron of 260 GHz

Stefano Alberti, Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Falk Hans Braunmüller, Murari Soundararajan, Philippe Cuanillon, Dongyoung Yoon

An increase in Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) signal intensity is obtained with a tunable gyrotronproducing frequency modulation around 260 GHz at power levels less than 1W. The sweep rate of frequency modulation can reach 14 kHz, and its amplitude is ...

Laser arrival measurement tools for SwissFEL

Christoph Peter Hauri

SwissFEL is aiming to produce X-ray pulses from 30 fs down to the attosecond time scale. This requires the compression of the several picosecond long electron bunches produced by a photo-injector to sub-fs level. To achieve this, 40fs accurate injection of ...
