| title: | Recent Results from and Future Plans for the VISA II SASE FEL |
| format: | preprint |
| year: | 2005 |
| 19 authors: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| abstract: | The VISA II (Visible to Infrared SASE Amplifier) project, a consequent experiment to the succesful VISA enterprise, entails the use of a chirped electron beam to drive a high gain SASE FEL. The resulting ultra-short pulses will be characterized using an advanced FROG (Frequency Resolved Optical Gating)technique, as well as a double differential spectrum (angle/wavelength) diagnostic. Implementation of sextupole corrections to the longitudinal aberrations affecting the high energy-spread chirped beam during transport to the VISA undulator is studied. Start-end simulations, including radiation diagnostics, are discussed. Initial experimental results involving a highly chirped beam transported without sextupole corrections, the resulting high gain lasing, and computational analysis are briefly reported. |

| title: | Calculation of Coherent Radiation from Ultra-short Electron Beams Using a Li |
| format: | journal article |
| year: | 2004 |
| 6 authors: | | | | | | |
| abstract: | The coherent radiation emitted by electrons in high brightness beam-based experiments is important from the viewpoints of both radiation source development, and the understanding and diagnosing the basic physical processes important in beam manipulations at high intensity. While much theoretical work has been developed to aid in calculating aspects of this class of radiation, these methods do not often produce accurate information concerning the experimentally relevant aspects of the radiation. At UCLA, we are particularly interested in coherent synchrotron radiation and the related phenomena of coherent edge radiation, in the context of a fs-beam chicane compression experiment at the BNL ATF. To analyze this and related problems,we have developed aprogramthat acts as an extension to the Li |

| title: | Simulations, Diagnostics and Recent Results of the VISA II Experiment |
| format: | conference procceeding |
| conference: | Proceedings of the 27th International Free Electron Laser Conference |
| year: | August 2005 |
| 17 authors: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| abstract: | The VISA II experiment entails the use of a chirped electron beam to drive a high gain SASE FEL. Sextupoles are implemented to correct the longitudinal aberrations affecting the high energy spread chirped beam during transport to the undulator. The output radiation is diagnosed with a modified frequency resolved optical gating (FROG) technique. The double differential energy spectrum is measured with a pair of slits and a set of gratings. In this paper, we report on start-to-end simulations, radiation diagnostics, as well as initial experimental results. Technical considerations for future experimental methods are also addressed. |

| title: | Status of the SPARC-X Project |
| format: | journal article |
| year: | 2007 |

| abstract: | SPARC-X is a two branch project consisting in the SPARC test facility dedicated to the development and test of critical subsystems such as high brightness photoinjector and a modular expandable undulator for SASE-FEL experiments at 500 nm with seeding, and the SPARX facility aiming at generation of high brilliance coherent radiation in the 1.5-13 nm range, based on the achieved expertise. The projects are supported by MIUR (Research Department of Italian Government) and Regione Lazio. SPARC has completed the commissioning phase of the photoinjector in November 2006. The achieved experimental results are here summarized together with the status of the second phase commissioning plans. The SPARX project is based on the generation of ultra high peak brightness electron beams at the energy of 1 and 2 GeV generating radiation in the 1.5-13 nm range. The construction is at the moment planned in two steps starting with a 1 GeV Linac. The project layout including both RF-compression and magnetic chicane techniques has been studied. |
