Abstract

A nondestructive method to measure beam energy spread using the quadrupole modes within a microwave cavity is proposed. Compared with a button beam position monitor (BBPM) or a stripline beam position monitor (SBPM), the cavity monitor is a narrow band pickup and therefore has better signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and resolution. In this study, a rectangular cavity monitor is designed. TM220 mode operating at 4.76 GHz in the cavity reflects the quadrupole moment of the beam. The cavity plans to be installed behind a bending magnet in Dalian Coherent Light Source (DCLS), an extreme ultraviolet FEL facility. In this position, the beam has a larger dispersion, which is beneficial to measure the energy spread. A quadrupole magnet, a fluorescent screen, and a SBPM with eight electrodes is installed near the cavity for calibration and comparison. The systematic framework and simulation results are also discussed in this paper.
