MOPA34 | Noise in Intense Electron Bunches | 128 |
|
||
We report on our investigations into density fluctuations in electron bunches. Noise and density fluctuations in relativistic electron bunches, accelerated in a linac, are of critical importance to various Coherent Electron Cooling (CEC) concepts as well as to free-electron lasers (FELs). For CEC, the beam noise results in additional diffusion that counteracts cooling. In SASE FELs, a microwave instability starts from the initial noise in the beam and eventually leads to the beam microbunching yielding coherent radiation, and the initial noise in the FEL bandwidth plays a useful role. In seeded FELs, in contrast, such noise interferes with the seed signal, so that reducing noise at the initial seed wavelength would lower the seed laser power requirement. Status of the project will be presented. | ||

TUPA02 | Characterization of Octupole Elements for IOTA | 351 |
|
||
Funding: Work partially supported by the US Department of Energy, Office of Science, High Energy Physics under Cooperative Agreement award number DE-SC0018362 and Michigan State University. The Integrable Optics Test Accelerator (IOTA) is a research storage ring constructed and operated at Fermilab to demonstrate the advantages of nonlinear integrable lattices. One of the nonlinear lattice configurations with one integral of motion is based on a string of short octupoles. The results of the individual magnet’s characterizations, which were necessary to determine their multipole composition and magnetic centers, are presented. This information was used to select and align the best subset of octupoles for the IOTA run 4. |

Demonstration of Optical Stochastic Cooling in an Electron Storage Ring | |
|
||
Optical stochastic cooling (OSC), proposed nearly thirty years ago, replaces the conventional microwave elements of stochastic cooling (SC) with optical-frequency analogs, such as undulators, optical lenses and optical amplifiers. Here we discuss the first experimental observation of OSC, which was performed at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory’s Integrable Optics Test Accelerator (IOTA) with 100-MeV electrons and a radiation wavelength of 950 nm. The experiment employed a non-amplified configuration of OSC and achieved a longitudinal damping rate close to one order of magnitude larger than the beam’s natural damping due to synchrotron radiation. The integrated system demonstrated sub-femtosecond stability and a bandwidth of ~20 THz, a factor of ~2000-times higher than conventional microwave SC systems. Coupling to the transverse planes enabled simultaneous cooling of the beam in all degrees of freedom. This first demonstration of SC at optical frequencies serves as a foundation for more advanced experiments with high-gain optical amplification and advances opportunities for future operational OSC systems at colliders and other accelerator facilities. | ||
