The Future of Photon Science and Free-Electron Lasers Ingolf Lindau Lund University and Stanford University MAX-Lab and Synchrotron Light Research KTH, June 1, 2012
The Vision… John Madey, 1971 “…possibility of partially coherent radiation sources in the … x-ray regions to beyond 10 keV.”
John M. J. Madey April 1971 29 March 1976 A new class of tunable high-power free-electron lasers.
Sov. Phys. Dokl.24, 986 (1979) Optics Comm.50, 373 (1984)
Concept of a free electron x-ray laser • Replace storage ring by a linear accelerator • allows compression of electron bunch – use once, then throw away • Send electron bunch through a very long undulator very short bunch length micrometers spontaneous photons from back of bunch create order ordered electrons enhance stimulated photon emission amplified photons completely coherent Intensity scales as Ne2or increased by 109

USR Features • • High coherent fraction • • “Round” beams • • Short bunches (~5-10 ps RMS from low momentum compaction factor) • • Special operating modes could include: • few-turn, sub-ps bunch mode • 100-1000 turn mode with injection from superconducting linac operating without energy recovery (e.g. ~1 mA @ few GeV) • localized bunch compression systems in long straight sections • bunch tailoring with low alpha, non linear momentum compaction • lasing in an FEL located in a switched bypass • partial lasing at soft X-ray wavelengths using the stored beam • • “Long” lifetime: if the bunch dimensions are small enough Touschek lifetime increases (NSLS-II and MAX-IV may begin to see this effect) • • Damping wigglers to reduce emittance by ~x2 • • On-axis injection (maybe) and “swap-out” injection for small dynamic aperture
