Currently ALS is undergoing an upgrade to ALSU to produce 100 times brighter soft X-ray light. The LLRF system for Accumulator Ring (AR) is composed of two identical LLRF stations, for driving RF amplifiers. The closed loop RF amplitude and…
LCLS-II is an X-Ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL) commissioned in 2022, being the first Continuous Wave (CW) hard XFEL in the world to come into operation. To accelerate the electron beam to an energy of $\SI{4}{\giga \eV}$, 280 TESLA type…
Proton beams with up to 100 pC bunch charge, 0.48 MeV cut-off energy and divergence as low as a $3^{\circ}$ were generated from solid targets at kHz repetition rate by a few-mJ femtosecond laser under controlled plasma conditions. The beam…
The scope of the proposal outlined in this white paper is the development and demonstration of the technology needed for next generation of Nb_3Sn accelerator magnets in the 12-14 T range. The main goal is to cut magnet cold-mass cost by a…
We describe an interplay between two injection mechanism of background electrons into an evolving plasma bubble behind an intense laser pulse: one due to the overall bubble expansion, and another due to its periodic undulation. The two…
The first version of digital low level RF (DLLRF) for the Diamond Light Source storage ring and booster was developed with ALBA Synchrotron. Six systems have been built so far. Two of them are in routine operation controlling two normal…
The problem of the electromagnetic radiation of an accelerated charged particle is one of the most controversial issues in Physics since the beginning of the last century, representing one of the most popular unsolved problems of the Modern…
Plasma wakefield accelerators driven by particle beams are capable of providing accelerating gradient several orders of magnitude higher than currently used radio-frequency technology, which could reduce the length of particle accelerators,…
In this paper, new results concerning the phenomenon of adiabatic trapping into resonance for a class of quasi-integrable maps with a time-dependent exciter are presented and discussed in detail. The applicability of the results about…
The Target Absorbers for Neutrals (TANs) are located in a high-intensity radiation environment inside the tunnel of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). TANs are positioned about $140$ m downstream from the beam interaction points. Seven $40$…
We present the design of a high repetition rate MeV energy ultrafast electron diffraction instrument based on a DC photoelectron gun and an SRF linac with multiple independently controlled accelerating and bunching cavities. The design is…
The beam longitudinal dynamics code BLonD has been developed at CERN since 2014 and has become a central tool for longitudinal beam dynamics simulations. In this paper, we present this modular simulation suite and the various physics models…
To control the temporal profile of a relativistic electron beam to meet requirements of various advanced scientific applications like free-electron-laser and plasma wakefield acceleration, a widely-used technique is to manipulate the…
The efficiency of colliders for physics is largely determined by their luminosity, while most of the energy consumed by high-energy $e^+e^-$ colliders is proportional to the total beam current. Thus, the energy efficiency is mainly…
Early fault detection and fault prognosis are crucial to ensure efficient and safe operations of complex engineering systems such as the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) and its power electronics (high voltage converter modulators).…
A novel quantity for predicting the high-gradient performance of radio frequency accelerating structures is presented. The quantity is motivated, derived and compared with earlier high-gradient limits and experiments. This new method models…
Plasma accelerators sustain extreme field gradients, and potentially enable future compact linear colliders. Although tremendous progress has been achieved in accelerating electron beams in a plasma accelerator, positron acceleration with…
Field emission cathodes (FECs) are attractive for the next generation of injectors due to their ability to provide high current density bright beams with low intrinsic emittance. One application of FECs worthy of special attention is to…
Energy-recovery linacs (ERLs) have been emphasised by the recent (2020) update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics as one of the most promising technologies for the accelerator base of future high-energy physics. The current paper…
This work shows how it is possible to reconstruct SuperKEKB's beam parameters using a Neural Network with beamstrahlung signal from the Large Angle Beamstrahlung Monitor (LABM) as input. We describe the device, the model, and discuss the…
