Simulation of emittance growth in the ALS pre-injector

Creators

  • 1. Lawrence Berkeley Lab., CA (USA)

Description

Transverse and longitudinal beam dynamics in the ALS preinjector were simulated with a 2 1/2 D code. Strong space-charge forces at low energy and nonlinearities caused emittances to grow. However, careful tuning of the bunching system and the linac reduced emittance growth to an acceptable level. About 1/3 of the gun output are within the required energy spread and the normalized rms emittance is significantly lower than the expected value. 3 refs., 7 figs., 1 tab
