A new approach to solving the radiation field problem of an extended helical undulator

A new method is applied to construct an exact solution for the radiation field of a particle moving along an infinite helical trajectory. The solution is obtained in the form of a series expansion in cylindrical multipoles. The obtained solution is compared with the existing approximate solution and, using the derived exact relationships for the Doppler effect, is used to construct integral and angular characteristics of the radiation field. The possibility of a continuous transition from expressions for a helical trajectory of a particle to expressions describing the motion of a particle along a closed circle is shown. Optimization criteria are introduced and the possibility of optimizing the radiation characteristics by several parameters is considered.

Dark Current Studies for SwissFEL

Activation of the surroundings of an accelerator must be quantified and those data provided to the official agencies. This is a necessary step in obtaining the authorization to operate such an accelerator. SwissFEL, being a fourth generation light source, will produce more accelerated charges, which are dumped or lost, than conventional third generation light source, such as the Swiss Light Source. We have simulated the propagation of a dark current beam produced in the photoelectron gun using tracking codes like ASTRA and Elegant for the current layout of SwissFEL. Experimental studies have been carried out at the SwissFEL test facilities at PSI (C-Band RF Stand and SwissFEL Injector Test Facility), in order to provide necessary input data for detailed study of components (RF gun and C-band RF structures) using the simulation code OPAL. A summary of these studies are presented.
