EuPRAXIA Mini-workshop on novel RF technologies in the framework of WP5.

5 Oct 2016, 08:00 → 6 Oct 2016, 18:00 Europe/Rome

LNF

This mini-workshop aims to lay the groundworks for the preliminary RF accelerator specification, in order to accomplish the first WP5 scientific milestone (M5.2).

This mini-workshop is addressed to those, within the EuPRAXIA collaboration, interested in the topic and directly involved  in the Milestone 5.2, i.e. WP5,WP2,WP3,WP6,WP7,WP9,WP12,WP14.

The discussion will focus on:

• Scientific cases, highlighting requests from RF injector users, i.e. laser-driven and particle-driven external injection
• Overview on RF electron guns, highlighting pros&cons
• Next generation cryogenics RF photocathode sources
• Operational experience at both test and users facilities, e.g. SPARC_LAB, FLASH, etc.
• Contribution from under design facilities, e.g. SINBAD, etc.

  Highlight of critical issues concerning

• beam stability (e.g. charge, energy, time duration, temporal separation in case of multi-drivers, pointing, …)
• synchronization
• repetition rate
