Abstract

A high-brightness electron beam is emitted from a photo-cathode (PC) RF gun for use in the FIR (Far Infrared) facility being built at the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL). The beam dynamics study for the PAL XFEL injector is essential to generate low emittance electron beam from the PC RF gun. The XFEL injector requires 1 nC beam with short bunch length and low emittance. These conditions are simulated with PARMELA code and then are realized on experimental conditions. The experimental conditions for the XFEL injector are measured with beam diagnostic devices such as ICT and Faraday cup for charge measurement, a spectrometer for beam energy measurement. In this article, we present the experimental approaches of the beam dynamics study for the XFEL injector.
