Why Recirculate?
  • Performance upgrade of a previously installed
    linac
  • Stanford Superconducting Accelerator and MIT
    Bates doubled their energy this way
  • Cheaper design to get a given performance
  • Microtrons, by many passes, reuse expensive RF
    many times to get energy up. Penalty is that the
    average current has to be reduced proportional to
    1/number passes, for the same installed RF.
  • Jefferson Lab CEBAF type machines add passes
    until the decremental gain in RF system and
    operating costs no longer pays for an additional
    recirculating loop
  • Jefferson Lab FEL and other Energy Recovered
    Linacs (ERLs) save the cost of higher average
    power RF equipment (and much higher operating
    costs) at higher CW operating currents by
    reusing beam energy through beam recirculation.

recovery choose it to be (n 1/2)?RF. Then

Beam Energy Recovery
Recirculation path length in herring-bone
configuration recirculated linac. For energy
recovery choose it to be n?RF. Note additional
complication path length has to be an integer at
each and every different accelerating cavity
location in the linac.
7
Comparison between Linacs and Storage Rings
  • Advantage Linacs
  • Emittance dominated by source emittance and
    emittance growth down linac
  • Beam polarization easily produced at the
    source, switched, and preserved
  • Total transit time is quite short
  • Beam is easily extracted. Utilizing source laser
    control, flexible bunch patterns possible
  • Long undulaters are a natural addition
  • Bunch durations can be SMALL (10-100 fsec)

8
Comparison Linacs and Storage Rings
  • Advantage Storage Rings
  • Up to now, the stored average current is much
    larger
  • Very efficient use of accelerating voltage
  • Technology well developed and mature
  • Disadvantage Storage Rings
  • Technology well developed and mature (maybe!)
  • The synchrotron radiation damping equilibrium,
    and the emittance and bunch length it generates,
    must be accepted

9
Power Multiplication Factor
  • Energy recovered beam recirculation is nicely
    quantified by the notion of a power
    multiplication factor
  • where Prf is the RF power needed to
    accelerate the beam
  • By the first law of thermodynamics (energy
    conservation!) k lt 1
  • in any linac not recirculated. Beam
    recirculation with beam deceleration somewhere is
    necessary to achieve k gt 1
  • If energy IS very efficiently recycled from the
    accelerating to the decelerating beam

More Modern Reason to Recirculate!
  • A renewed general interest in beam recirculation
    has arisen due to the success of Jefferson Labs
    high average current energy recovered Free
    Electron Lasers (FELs), and the broader
    realization that it may be possible to achieve
    beam parameters Unachievable in storage rings
    or linacs without recirculation.
  • ERL synchrotron source Beam power in a typical
    synchrotron source is (100 mA)(5 GeV)500 MW.
    Realistically, even the federal govt. will be
    unable to provide a third of a nuclear plant to
    run a synchrotron source. Idea is to use the high
    multiplication factor possible in energy
    recovered designs to reduce the power load. Pulse
    lengths of order 100 fsec or smaller may in be
    possible in an ERL source impossible at a
    storage ring. Better emittance may be possible
    too.
  • The limits, in particular the average current
    carrying capacity of possible recirculated linac
    designs, are not yet determined and may be far in
    excess of what the FELs can do!

13
Challenges for Beam Recirculation
  • Additional Linac Instability
  • Multipass Beam Breakup (BBU)
  • Observed first at Illinois Superconducting
    Racetrack Microtron
  • Limits the average current at a given
    installation
  • Made better by damping non-fundamental
    electromagnetic High Order Modes (HOMs) in the
    cavities
  • Best we can tell at CEBAF, threshold current is
    around 20 mA, measured to be several mA in the
    FEL
  • Changes based on beam recirculation optics
  • Turn around optics tends to be a bit different
    than in storage rings or more conventional
    linacs. Longitudinal beam dynamics gets coupled
    more strongly to the transverse dynamics and
    nonlinear corrections different
  • HOM cooling will perhaps limit the average
    current in such devices.

14
Challenges for Beam Recirculation
  • High average current sources needed to provide
    beam
  • Right now, looks like a good way to get there is
    with DC photocathode sources as we have in the
    Jefferson Lab FEL.
  • Need higher fields in the acceleration gap in the
    gun.
  • Need better vacuum performance in the beam
    creation region to increase the photocathode
    lifetimes.
  • Goal is to get the photocathode decay times above
    the present storage ring Toushek lifetimes
  • Beam dumping of the recirculated beam can be a
    challenge.

15
Recirculating SRF Linacs
16
The CEBAF at Jefferson Lab
  • Most radical innovations (had not been done
    before on the scale of CEBAF)
  • choice of Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF)
    technology
  • use of multipass beam recirculation
  • Until LEP II came into operation, CEBAF was the
    worlds largest implementation of SRF technology.

Energy Recovered Linacs
  • The concept of energy recovery first appears in
    literature by Maury Tigner, as a suggestion for
    alternate HEP colliders
  • There have been several energy recovery
    experiments to date, the first one in a
    superconducting linac at the Stanford SCA/FEL
  • Same-cell energy recovery with cw beam current up
    to 10 mA and energy up to 150 MeV has been
    demonstrated at the Jefferson Lab 10 kW FEL.
    Energy recovery is used routinely for the
    operation of the FEL as a user facility

  • T.I. Smith, et al., Development of the
    SCA/FEL for use in Biomedical and Materials

23
The SCA/FEL Energy Recovery Experiment
  • The former Recyclotron beam recirculation system
    could not be used to obtain the peak current
    required for FEL lasing and was replaced by a
    doubly achromatic single-turn recirculation line.
  • Same-cell energy recovery was first demonstrated
    in an SRF linac at the SCA/FEL in July 1986
  • Beam was injected at 5 MeV into a 50 MeV linac
    (up to 95 MeV in 2 passes)
  • Nearly all the imparted energy was recovered. No
    FEL inside the recirculation loop.

  • BEST BRILLIANCE AT LOW CHARGES, once a given
    design and bunch length is chosen! Therefore,

Nonlinear Thomson Scattering
  • Many of the the newer Thomson Sources are based
    on a PULSED laser (e.g. all of the high-energy
    lasers are pulsed by their very nature)
  • Have developed a general theory to cover
    radiation calculations in the general case of a
    pulsed, high field strength laser interacting
    with electrons in a Thomson scattering
    arrangement.
  • The new theory shows that in many situations the
    estimates people do to calculate flux and
    brilliance, based on a constant amplitude models,
    need to be modified.
  • The new theory is general enough to cover all
    1-D undulator calculations and all pulsed laser
    Thomson scattering calculations.
  • The main new physics that the new calculations
    include properly is the fact that the electron
    motion changes based on the local value of the
    field strength squared. Such ponderomotive forces
    (i.e., forces proportional to the field strength
    squared), lead to a red-shift detuning of the
    emission, angle dependent Doppler shifts of the
    emitted scattered radiation, and additional
    transverse dipole emission that this theory can
    calculate.

44
Ancient History
  • Early 1960s Laser Invented
  • Brown and Kibble (1964) Earliest definition of
    the field strength parameters K and/or a in the
    literature that Im aware of
  • Interpreted frequency shifts that occur at high
    fields as a relativistic mass shift.
  • Sarachik and Schappert (1970) Power into
    harmonics at high K and/or a . Full calculation
    for CW (monochromatic) laser. Later referenced,
    corrected, and extended by workers in fusion
    plasma diagnostics.
  • Alferov, Bashmakov, and Bessonov (1974)
    Undulator/Insertion Device theories developed
    under the assumption of constant field strength.
    Numerical codes developed to calculate real
    fields in undulators.
  • Coisson (1979) Simplified undulator theory,
    which works at low K and/or a, developed to
    understand the frequency distribution of edge
    emission, or emission from short magnets, i.e.,
    including pulse effects

This equation does not follow the typical (see
Jackson) convention that combines both positive

positive frequency integral. The reason is that
we would like to apply Parsevals Theorem easily.
By symmetry, the difference is a factor of two.

Co-moving Coordinates
  • Assume radiating charge is moving with a velocity
    close to light in a direction taken to be the z
    axis, and the charge is on average at rest in
    this coordinate system
  • For the remainder of the presentation, quantities
    referred to the moving coordinates will have
    primes unprimed quantities refer to the lab
    system
  • In the co-moving system the dipole radiation
    pattern applies

53
Comments/Sum Rule
  • There is no radiation parallel or anti-parallel
    to the x-axis for x-dipole motion
  • In the forward direction ?'? 0, the radiation
    polarization is parallel to the x-axis for an
    x-dipole motion
  • One may integrate over all angles to obtain a
    result for the total energy radiated

60
Thomson Scattering
  • Purely classical scattering of photons by
    electrons
  • Thomson regime defined by the photon energy in
    the electron rest frame being small compared to
    the rest energy of the electron, allowing one to
    neglect the quantum mechanical Dirac recoil on
    the electron
  • In this case electron radiates at the same
    frequency as incident photon for low enough field
    strengths
  • Classical dipole radiation pattern is generated
    in beam frame
  • Therefore radiation patterns, at low field
    strength, can be largely copied from textbooks
  • Note on terminology Some authors call any
    scattering of photons by free electrons Compton
    Scattering. Compton observed (the so-called
    Compton effect) frequency shifts in X-ray
    scattering off (resting!) electrons that depended
    on scattering angle. Such frequency shifts arise
    only when the energy of the photon in the rest
    frame becomes comparable with 0.511 MeV.

Summary
  • Overall structure of the distributions is very
    like that from the general dipole motion, only
    the effective dipole motion, including physical
    effects such as the relativistic motion of the
    electrons and retardation, must be generalized
    beyond the straight Fourier transform of the
    field
  • At low field strengths (f ltlt1), the distributions
    reduce directly to the classical Fourier
    transform dipole distributions
  • The effective dipole motion from the
    ponderomotive force involves a simple projection
    of the incident wave vector in the beam frame
    onto the axis of interest, multiplied by the
    general ponderomotive dipole motion integral
  • The radiation from the two transverse dipole
    motions are compressed by the same angular
    factors going from beam to lab frame as appears
    in the simple dipole case. The longitudinal
    dipole radiation is also transformed between beam
    and lab frame by the same fraction as in the
    simple longitudinal dipole motion. Thus the usual
    compression into a 1/? cone applies

Realistic Pulse Distribution at High a
In general, its easiest to just numerically
integrate the lab-frame expression for the
spectrum in terms of Dt and Dp. A 105 to 106
point Simpson integration is adequate for most
purposes. Flat pulses reproduce previously known
results and to evaluate numerical error, and
Gaussian amplitude modulated pulses. One may
utilize a two-timing approximation (i.e., the
laser pulse is a slowly varying sinusoid with
amplitude a(?)), and the fundamental expressions,
to write the energy distribution at any angle in
terms of Bessel function expansions and a ?
integral over the modulation amplitude. This
approach actually has a limited domain of
applicability (K,alt0.1)

92
Conclusions
  • Recent development of superconducting cavities
    has enabled CW operation at energy gains in
    excess of 20 MV/m, and acceleration of average
    beam currents of 10s of mA.
  • The ideas of Beam Recirculation and Energy
    Recovery have been introduced. How these concepts
    may be combined to yield a new class of
    accelerators that can be used in many interesting
    applications has been discussed. Ive given you
    some indication about the historical development
    of recirculating SRF linacs.
  • The present knowledge on beam recirculation and
    its limitations in a superconducting environment,
    leads us to think that recirculating accelerators
    of several GeV energy, and with beam currents
    approaching those in storage ring light sources,
    are possible.

93
Conclusions
  • Ive shown how dipole solutions to the Maxwell
    equations can be used to obtain and understand
    very general expressions for the spectral angular
    energy distributions for weak field undulators
    and general weak field Thomson Scattering photon
    sources
  • A new calculation scheme for high intensity
    pulsed laser Thomson Scattering has been
    developed. This same scheme can be applied to
    calculate spectral properties of short, high-K
    wigglers.
  • Due to ponderomotive broadening, it is simply
    wrong to use single-frequency estimates of flux
    and brilliance in situations where the square of
    the field strength parameter becomes comparable
    to or exceeds the (1/N) spectral width of the
    induced electron wiggle
  • The new theory is especially useful when
    considering Thomson scattering of Table Top
    TeraWatt lasers, which have exceedingly high
    field and short pulses. Any calculation that does
    not include ponderomotive broadening is
    incorrect.

94
Conclusions
  • Because the laser beam in a Thomson scatter
    source can interact with the electron beam
    non-colinearly with the beam motion (a piece of
    physics that cannot happen in an undulator),
    ponderomotively driven transverse dipole motion
    is now possible
  • This motion can generate radiation at the second
    harmonic of the up-shifted incident frequency on
    axis. The dipole direction is in the direction of
    laser incidence.
  • Because of Doppler shifts generated by the
    ponderomotive displacement velocity induced in
    the electron by the intense laser, the frequency
    of the emitted radiation has an angular
    asymmetry.
  • Sum rules for the total energy radiated, which
    generalize the usual Larmor/Lenard sum rule, have
    been obtained.
