In the framework of the Compact Light XLS project, we have performed a possible RF design on the 35 GHz accelerating structure in order to linearize the longitudinal phase space. Detailed RF estimations and the wake-field effects on the beam dynamics are also reported. The numerical electromagnetic simulations have been carried out by using the code HFSS in the frequency domain and CST...
Technological advancements are strongly required to fulfil demands for new accelerators devices from the compact or portable devices for radiotherapy to mobile cargo inspections and security, biology, energy and environmental applications, and ultimately for the next generation of colliders. New manufacturing techniques for hard-copper structures are being investigated in order to determine...
Recent studies and investigations show the possibility to increase the cathode peak field, using normal conducting structures with a reduced RF pulse duration or using copper structures operated at cryogenic temperatures. In this context we studied the beam dynamics advantages using a 1.6 cells C-band gun operated at the gradient of 240 MV/m, in order to set the photo-injector layout for the...
