1 LCLS Commissioning Status Paul Emma (for the LCLS Commissioning Team) June 20, 2008 LCLS ANL LLNL UCLA

2 FEL Principles Electrons slip behind EM wave by λ 1 per undulator period ( (λ u ) x K/γ e λ u v x E x > 0 Due to sustained interaction, some electrons lose energy, while others gain energy modulation at λ 1 e losing energy slow down, and e gaining energy catch up density modulation at λ 1 (microbunching) Microbunched beam radiates coherently at λ 1, enhancing the process exponential growth of radiation power λ 1 x-ray z v x E x > 0 0 Z. Huang

3 FEL Micro-Bunching Along Undulator electron beam photon beam undulator beam dump SASE* FEL starts up from noise * Self-Amplified Spontaneous Emission S. Reiche UCLA log (radiation power) distance

4 X-ray FEL requires extremely bright e beam Power grows exponentially with undulator distance, z but only if time-sliced energy spread <<10 3 and the transverse emittance is /4π. power gain length: is ~λ 1 /4 time-sliced emittance local peak current FEL power reaches saturation at ~20~ 20L G SASE performance depends exponentially on e beam quality (emittance & peak current!) Z. Huang

5 Slice versus Projected Emittance For a collider collision integrates over bunch length emittance projected over the bunch length is important For an FEL e slips back in phase w.r.t. photons by λ r per period, λ u λ u λ r FEL integrates over slippage length: slice emittance (and E-spread) is important Nλ r 0.5 μm
