title: RF photoinjector development for a short-pulse, hard X-ray Thomson scattering source

format: conference procceeding

conference: 9th Advanced Accelerator Concepts Workshop

year: 2001

6 authors: G. P. Le Sage | S. G. Anderson | T. E. Cowan | J. K. Crane | T. Ditmire | J. B. Rosenzweig

abstract: An important motivation in the development of the next generation X-ray light sources is to achieve picosecond and sub-ps pulses of hard X-rays for dynamic studies of a variety of physical, chemical anti biological processes. Present hard X-ray sources are either pulse-width or intensity limited, which allows ps-scale temporal resolution only for signal averaging of highly repetitive processes. A much faster and brighter hard X-ray source is being developed at LLNL, based on Thomson scattering of fs-laser pulses by a relativistic electron beam, which will enable X-ray characterization of the transient structure of a sample in a single shot. Experimental and diagnostic techniques relevant to the development of next generation sources including the Linac Coherent Light Source can be tested with the Thomson scattering hard X-ray source. This source will combine an RF photoinjector with a 100 MeV S-band linac. The photoinjector and linac also provide an ideal test-bed for examining space-charge induced emittance growth effects. A program of beam dynamics and diagnostic experiments are planned in parallel with Thomson source development. Our experimental progress and future plans will be discussed.

title: Ultrafast X-ray generation and applications using laser-linac interactions

format: conference procceeding

conference: 1999 IEEE LEOS Annual Meeting

year: 1999

9 authors: T. Ditmire | T. E. Cowan | G. LeSage | M. Allen | G. Hays | K. B. Wharton | M. D. Perry | H. T. Powell | James Rosenzweig

abstract: At LLNL we have been working to integrate an intense short-pulse laser with a low-emittance relativistic electron beam utilizing a 100 MeV S-band linac. This project uses a 100 TW, 35 fs laser, which is currently under development. (3 References).
