Abstract
- In compact linac system, alpha magnet seems to be a useful device to manipulate the longitudinal phase space. Particularly combined use with thermionic RF gun has been regarded as a convenient system for bunch compression. The alpha magnet simply acts to rotate the longitudinal phase space of the beam, besides energy selection by an aperture in it. However, by using the alpha magnet, if we like to produce high brilliant electron beam with considerable charge, space charge force has to be carefully taken into account to evaluate the beam property for not only the longitudinal but also the transverse. Since the both transverse motions and the longitudinal one are coupled with each other in the alpha magnet, it is mostly impossible to evaluate the space charge effect analytically. Meanwhile, because energies of the electrons from the thermionic RF gun are ranging from zero to the maximum, a conventional way to count Coulomb force in the rest frame may be not satisfactorily valid in numerical simulations. We will discuss space charge dominated phase spaces derived from 3-D tracking simulations* for the alpha magnet. *GPT (General Particle Tracer) and an FDTD code developed ourselves.<br />Proceedings of the 1st International Particle Accelerator Conference, IPAC2010, Kyoto, Japan
