VII. Summary
WiFEL is a planned user facility with 3 FELs driven by a 1.7 GeV e-beam and 3 FELs at 2.2 GeV.
• A superconducting photoinjector and linac provide 200-pC parabolic bunches with peak current of 50 A.
• Magnetic bunch compression in-creases the current to 1 kA for the FELs.
• Collective effects in the driver must be considered.
Scientific Demand for a VUV/Soft Xray FEL
• Diffraction, VUV/X-ray light; e.g., for coherent imaging at nanometer-scale
• Highest energy-resolution beamlines• Tool for advanced nanotechnology patterning
• Subpicosecond pulses for pump-probe experiments;
e.g., for femtochemistry• High flux for resonant inelastic X-ray scattering
(photon in, photon out)• Coherent synchrotron radiation in the infrared from
bunches as a whole

• Formulas for the growth of modulations are obtained.
• ELEGANT tracking of 4 million particles agrees with the formulas.
• Evaluation of the formulas is much faster than tracking simulations.

The microbunching gain is more than an order of magnitude lower with single-stage compression than with two-stage compression.
With a low-R56 spreader, the microbunching is not increased.
Single-stage compression with a low-R56 spreader provides the best FEL performance since a colder bunch can be compressed. Laser-heating may not be required.

Current and energy modulations at the FEL from shot noise, according to an analytical calculation that assumes linear gain for an initially parabolic bunch with 3-keV Gaussian energy spread. (a) Two-stage bunch compressor. (b) One-stage bunch compressor. The one-stage compressor with low-R56 spreader satisfies the FEL requirements that modulations with wavelengths shorter than the bunch should be smaller than 10% for current and 3x10-4 for energy modulations.
The lower microbunching gain with single stage compression and a low-R56 spreader is confirmed by the following simulations that approximate the amplified shot noise for an initial energy spread of 3 keV.
Amplified shot noise for two-stage compression followed by a beam spreader with R56 = 950 microns.
Amplified shot noise for two-stage compression followed by a beam spreader with R56 = 40 microns.
Amplified shot noise for single-stage compression followed by a beam spreader with R56 = 950 microns.
Amplified shot noise for single-stage compression followed by a beam spreader with R56 = 40 microns.
A beneficial application of collective effects:
In the WiFEL single-stage compressor, the compressed bunch is accelerated 40 degrees off-crest to remove its energy chirp. Since this requires 30% more RF accelerating voltage than on-crest acceleration, an alternative method of removing the bunch’s energy chirp may be cost-effective.
The wake of coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) is one alternative method for removing the bunch chirp.
An analytic model predicts that a short bending magnet reduces the chirp of a rectangular bunch (in V/s) by –NqZ0/πtb2, where N is the bunch population, q is the electron charge, Z0 is the impedance of free space, and tb is the bunch length in seconds.
The magnets should be separated by a distance exceeding ctb/(1-cosӨ), where c is the speed of light and Ө is the angle of deflection in a bending magnet.
About 15 bending magnets are predicted to give a dechirped WiFEL bunch with on-crest acceleration of the compressed bunch.

Simulations of shot noise show increased microbunching from thedechirping chicanes’ R56 = -1 mm, for a bunch that is not heated by alaser heater. The FEL requirements are marginally satisfied withouta laser heater, with initial energy spread of 3 keV.

CSR is also important in a recirculating-linac FEL driver. Lattice functions for a 1.7-GeV design with two 3-magnet isochronous arcs on each end, followed by a chicane for bunch compression.
Parameters for good compression with CSR effects have been found by trial-and-error tracking with the ELEGANT code. Here, a 200-pC bunch with initial length of 450 um compresses well with a linac phase of 17.2 degrees.
Q = 200 pC, initial length of 450 um, continued
Q = 200 pC, initial length of 450 um, continued

Summary• Collective effects must be considered in the WiFEL driver
• Longitudinal wakes were modeled with longitudinal impedances before and after each stage of compression.
• Resistive impedances in the longitudinal LiTrack code approximate macroscopic CSR/CER effects. This allows fast adjustment of rf parameters to compensate longitudinal wakes.
• Microbunching analytic model agrees with simulations. Microbunching gain is minimized with single-stage compression followed by a beam spreader with R56 << 1 mm. Shot noise simulations suggest that a laser heater will not be required in this case. With a cold bunch, we expect better FEL performance.
• The compressed bunch may be dechirped with the wake of CSR. This reduces the expense for superconducting RF cavities.
• In a recirculating-linac design, CSR effects have been studied by tracking with ELEGANT. Trial and error has been used to find parameters for good compression in a chicane downstream of the recirculating linac.
