X-band free electron laser experiment in the ion channel guiding regime

  • 1. National Lab. for High Energy Physics, Tsukuba, Ibaraki (Japan)

Description

Recent experimental results are reported for an induction-driven X-band FEL, with ion channel guiding inside the wiggler. Power in excess of 20 MW at 9.4 GHz, has been observed with a beam energy of 800 keV and a current of 500-700 A. Maximum gain is 22 dB/m, with no saturation after 15 wiggler periods. A self-amplified spontaneous power of 4 kW was also measured. Data for the detuning curve, field evolution and current transmission are presented and discussed. The expected performance at 1.6 MeV is also discussed. (author)
