| abstract: | The resource allocation in the Italian National Research Plan (PNR) for the development of a coherent ultra-brilliant X-ray source, based on a SASE Free Electron Laser, brought about the formation of a CNR-ENEA-INFN- University of Roma "Tor Vergata" study group. A conceptual design study has been developed and possible schemes for linac sources have been investigated leading to the SPARX proposal. We report in this paper the results of start to end simulations concerning the option based on an S-band normal conducting linac. Saturation at 1-10 nm can be achieved in a 40 m long undulator provided the peak current delivered by the linac is 2.5 kA at 2.5 GeV with rms normalized slice emittance of the order of 1 _m and the energy spread less than 0.1%. One of the most critical systems is the bunch compressor. The effects on beam dynamics of a magnetic chicane system and a rectilinear RF compressor (based on velocity bunching), integrated in a high brightness photoinjector, are analyzed and compared in this paper. |

| abstract: | The Project SPARC (Sorgente Pulsata e Amplificata di Radiazione Coerente), proposed by a collaboration among ENEA-INFN-CNR-Universita' di Roma "Tor Vergata" -INFM-ST, was recently approved by the Italian Government and will be built at LNF of INFN. The aim of the project is to promote an R&D activity oriented to the development of a coherent ultra-brilliant X-ray source in Italy. This collaboration has identified a program founded on two main issues: the generation of ultra-high peak brightness electron beams and of resonant higher harmonics in the SASE-FEL process. |

| abstract: | We review the status of FEL source activity of the ongoing SPARC FEL experiment, developed within the framework of a collaboration among ENEA, CNR, INFN, INFM, Sincrotrone Trieste and University of Rome Tor Vergata. The project is aimed at realising a SASE-FEL source, operating in the visible (around 500 nm), with an extended range of tunability down to the VUV (100 nm) by the use of the mechanism of non-linear harmonic generation. The development of the relevant activities foresees the realisation of an advanced 150 MeV photo- injector source, aimed at producing a high brightness electron beams, needed to drive a SASE-FEL experiment, and a 14 m long undulator. We present the status of the design and construction of SPARC FEL device. In particular we discuss the choice of the project parameters, their optimisation and the sensitivity of the SPARC performance to any parameter variation. We will show, using start-to-end simulations, what is the impact of the e- beam and of the undulator parameters on the characteristics of the output laser field and in particular on the amount of the non-linearly generated power at higher harmonics. |
