| abstract: | The Brookhaven Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) will consist of a 50-100 MeV/c electron linac and a 100 GW CO/sub 2/ laser system. A high brightness RF-gun operating at 2856 MHz is to be used as the injector into the linac. The RF-gun contains a Nd:Yag-laser-driven photocathode capable of producing a stream of six ps electron pulses separated by 12.5 ns. The maximum charge in a micropulse will be one nano-Coulomb. The CO/sub 2/ laser pulse length will be a few picoseconds and will be synchronized with the electron pulse. The design electron beam parameters are given and possible initial experiments are discussed. (9 References). |
