Abstract

A THz free electron laser (FEL) prototype has been developed at the Photo Injector Test Facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ) for obtaining high intensity radiation for THz-pump and X-ray-probe experiments at the European XFEL. In this development, a magnetic chicane was recently installed to optimize the THz FEL performance. The aim of this study is to investigate the beam dynamics in the chicane for a trajectory commissioning by tracking the electron beam via ASTRA using a 3-dimensional (3-D) magnetic field of the chicane simulated with CST-EM Studio. The simulated results indicate the possibility to obtain a minimum-momentum dispersion of an electron beam after chicane with the high bunches charge of electron beam transportation.
