4GLS Time Structures • XUV FEL: ~1 kHz, using high-charge bunches substituted into the low-charge train • “XUV” spontaneous: From same bunches as XUV FEL • VUV FEL: ~5 MHz cavity round-trip rate • Undulators & BMs: Up to the accelerator RF rate (0.7-1.5 GHz - TBD) • IR FEL: ~5 MHz cavity round-trip rate • Conventional lasers: Arbitrary

4GLS/DS3 Programme • Machine stability: Can a machine like 4GLS be designed and built with enough stability for a distributed RF system to be a good timing reference everywhere ? • Local sensors: If the machine is not stable enough then local sensors will be needed. Can these be sufficiently accurate and cheap to be fielded in many locations ? • Complex time structures: Can signal processing systems be developed to allow feedback jitter correction when the pulse time structure is irregular ?
ERLP Tests ERLP is a 35 MeV ERL with 1.3 GHz SCRF and an 81.25 MHz, 6mA photoinjector Bunch compression to 600 fs is planned Photoinjector laser locked to RF to <400 fs Separate kHz/mJ TiS laser for EO measurements Local pickup sensors will be tested Complex time structures will be trialled
