We report the first measurements of x-ray single-pulse duration and two-pulse separation at Linac Coherent Light Source using a cross-correlation technique involving x rays electrons. An emittance-spoiling foil is adopted as very simple effective method to control output pulse. A minimum pulse about 3 fs full width half maximum has been measured together with controllable (delay) between two pulses. This provides critical temporal diagnostics for experiments such pump-probe studies.

The microbunching instability (MBI) is a well-known problem for high brightness electron beams and has been observed at accelerator facilities around the world. Free-electron lasers (FELs) are particularly susceptible to MBI, which can distort longitudinal phase space increase beam's slice energy spread (SES). Past studies of MBI Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) relied on optical transition radiation infer existence microbunching. With development x-band transverse deflecting cavity...

It is widely believed that a drive laser with uniform temporal and spatial profiles required to generate the lowest emittance beam at photoinjector. However, for given 3 ps smooth-Gaussian profile, our recent simulations indicate truncated-Gaussian profile produces an electron smaller emittance. The simulation results are qualitatively confirmed by later analytical calculation, also measurements: reduction of $\ensuremath{\sim}25%$ was observed linac coherent light source (LCLS) injector...

The shot-noise driven microbunching instability can significantly degrade electron beam quality in x-ray free laser light sources. Experiments were carried out at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) to study this instability. In paper, we present start-to-end simulations of experiment LCLS using real number electrons. simulation results reproduce measurements quite well. A self-heating mechanism is also illustrated simulation, which helps explain experimental observation.

Laser-driven electron accelerators (laser linacs) offer the potential for enabling much more economical and compact devices. However, development of practical efficient laser linacs requires accelerating a large ensemble electrons together ("trapping") while keeping their energy spread small. This has never been realized before any acceleration system. We present here first demonstration high-trapping efficiency narrow via acceleration. Trapping efficiencies up to 80% spreads down 0.36% (1...

Small, stray magnetic and RF fields in electron guns injectors can perturb an beam introduce correlations between the otherwise orthogonal transverse trajectories. These couple x y dynamics which increases emittance. If correlation becomes "diluted" or randomized transport then as disappears 4D emittance increases. This paper discusses two important common to most injectors. The first results from coupling of a weak quadrupole field with rotation solenoid, second x-y is generated by...
