CEBAF-ER • Can easily & non-invasively perform 1st large scale test of energy recovery using CEBAF • requires 8 FEL dipoles (4 DW, 4 GW), power supplies, stands • build half-wavelength chicane at end of north linac, extraction chicane at end of south (requires construction of 2 vacuum chambers, installation) • accelerate 1 pass up, recover 1 pass down • “turn chicane off & download standard settings” to return to NP ops. • Big return for small investment
CEBAF-ER concept • By “borrowing” FEL DW & GW dipoles can build phase delay & extraction chicanes to create (noninvasive) CEBAF-ER and CEBAF-ER/CD • Chicanes limited to single pass energies • Install after linacs • Use FEL stands & power supplies • Simplifies geometry, beam handling
CEBAF-ER optics • Beam transport constraints include the all typical ones as well as the commonality of transport during energy recovery
CEBAF-ER/CD • Can current-double by putting a quarter wavelength chicane after the south linac • (actually, two 1/8th wavelength GW chicanes (BL limited)) • Must tinker with injector/linac energies and east arc excitations to get coasting beam into east S/R acceptances • Ei=65 MeV, EN=ES=234 MeV, use arcs 5 and 9 • or use asymmetric linacs (prelude to JERBAL): Ei=65 MeV, EN=351 MeV, ES=117 MeV, use arcs 7, 9 and 3 • Helps if commonality of transport is a problem – gives independent knobs • Demo experience suggests handling multiple beams in common structure may require some delicacy in sorting out the steering and focusing. Of course, CEBAF linacs do this daily!!!
low energy east arc full energy west arc full energy east arc full energy west arc low energy east arc CEBAF-ER/CDb optics • Balanced linac solution, 65/234/234, arcs 5 and 9, common transport from injection to dump • Some mismatch evident on later passes; will propagate thru arcs & may be fussy…
Multipass CEBAF-ER • A prelude to JERBAL • Requires more robust chicanery (in arcs rather than at ends of linac) • Steering & matching of multiple beams in common transport structures a concern
A Final Comment on Commonality • Mismatch issues arise in CEBAF-ER because blank zones in linacs generate symmetry violations – the machine doesn’t reflect around the center of the highest energy transport • Can avoid this in future machines (to within error tolerances!) by using modularized reflectively symmetric optics – making the linacs symmetric up and down & matching arcs to reflectively symmetric envelopes
GERBAL • Generic Energy-Recovering Bisected Asymmetric Linacs • Energy Recovering – for sure! • Bisected – recirculate high energy beam to high energy linac to improve focusing to energy match • Asymmetric Linacs– low energy linac short, high energy linac long • Short low energy linac reduces mismatch of higher passes, improves focusing/energy match, dynamic range • “Generic” – a design initiative: study general behavior without reference to specific parameter sets • Establish • optimal injection:final energy ratios • pass count • Linac length • SRF parameters
JERBAL • Jlab Energy-Recovering Bisected Asymmetric Linacs • SR source • Parameters to meet user demands • Based on JLab technology, experience
