Technical Design Studies of TAC SASE FEL Proposal

A SASE FEL facility was first proposed in Feasibility Report of the TAC (Turkish Accelerator Center) project in 2000. Conceptual Design Report (CDR) of the project was completed in 2005. Technical Design Report (TDR) studies of TAC were started in 2006 in frame of an inter universities project with support of State Planning Organization (SPO) of Turkey. Main goal of the SASE FEL proposal is to cover VUV and soft X-rays region of the spectrum besides IR-FEL, Bremsstrahlung and Synchrotron Radiation proposals of TAC. Up to now, optimization studies based on a special RF linac or an Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) for the SASE FEL facility, were completed. Today, ERLs provide a powerful broad range of applications like: electron cooling devices, high average brightness, high power FELs, short-pulse radiation sources and high luminosity colliders. In this study, main parameters for two linac options and SASE FEL are given.

The TAC IR FEL Oscillator Facility Project

The TAC (Turkish Accelerator Center) IR FEL Oscillator facility, which has been supported by Turkish State Planning Organization (SPO) since 2006, will be based on a 15-40 MeV electron linac accompanying two different undulators with 2.5 cm and 9 cm periods in order to obtain IR FEL ranging between 2-250 microns. The electron linac will consist of two sequenced modules, each housing two 9-cell superconducting TESLA cavities for cw operation. It is planned that the TAC IR FEL facility will be completed in 2012 at Golbasi campus of Ankara University. This facility will give an opportunity to the scientists and industry to use FEL in research and development in Turkey and our region. In this study, the results of optimization studies and present plans about construction process of the facility are presented.

Main Parameters of Ilc-Tevatron Based Lepton-Hadron and Photon-Hadron Colliders

The construction of the ILC tangential to Tevatron ring will give opportunity to investigate electron-proton, positron-proton, electron-antiproton, positron-antiproton interactions at 1 TeV center of mass energy. The analysis of the lepton-hadron collisions in these energy region is very important both for understanding of strong interaction dynamics and for adequate interpretation of future LHC and VLHC data. In addition, ILC-Tevatron collider will provide a possibility to realize photon-hadron collisions in the same energy region using Compton backscattered laser photon off ILC electron beam. Main parameters of these colliders are estimated and their physics search potential is briefly discussed.

The Status of Turkic Accelerator Complex Proposal

Recently, the Turkic Accelerator Complex (TAC) is proposed as a regional facility for accelerator based fundamental and applied research. The complex will include linac on ring type electron-positron collider as a phi, charm and tau factory, linac based free electron laser (FEL), ring based third generation synchrotron radiation (SR) source and a few GeV proton accelerator. Preliminary estimations show that integral luminosity of hundred inverse femto-barns per year can be achieved for factory options. The FEL facility is planned to obtain laser beam between IR and soft X-ray region. In addition, SR facility will produce photon beams in UV and X-ray region. The proton accelerator will give opportunity to produce muon and neutron beams for applied research. The current status of the conceptual study of the complex is presented.

CLIC-LHC Based FEL-Nucleus Collider: Feasibility and Physics Search Potential

The feasibility of a CLIC-LHC based FEL-nucleus collider is investigated. It is shown that the proposed scheme satisfies all requirements of an ideal photon source for the Nuclear Resonance Fluorescence method. The tunability, monochromaticity and high polarization of the FEL beam together with high statistics and huge energy of LHC nucleus beams will give an unique opportunity to determine different characteristics of excited nuclear levels. The physics potential of the proposed collider is illustrated for a beam of Pb nuclei.

The Potential of the Linac-Ring Type Colliders for Particle and Nuclear Physics

Linac-ring type colliders will open new windows for both energy frontier and particle factories. Concerning the first direction, these machines seem to be a sole way to TeV scale in lepton-hadron collisison at constituent level. An essential advantage of the linac-ring type lepton-hadron colliders is the possibility of the construction of gamma-p, gamma-A and FELgamma-A colliders based on them. Today, eRHIC, THERA (TESLA on HERA)and Linac*LHC can be considered as realistic candidates for future lepton-hadron and photon hadron colliders. When it comes to factories, one can reach essentially higher luminosities comparing to standard ring-ring type machines. For example, L=10^34 cm^-2 s^-1 can be achieved for phi and charm-tau factories. In this presentation we briefly discuss the parameters and physics search potential of the linac-ring type machines.

Main Parameters of the Linac-Ring Type Charm-Tau Factory

Main parameters of the linac-ring type charm-tau factory are discussed. Different sets of parameters for an electron linac and a positron ring have been considered. It is shown that L=10^33 cm-2 s-1 and even more can be achieved. The physics goals of this machine in investigation for charmed particles and tau lepton properties are briefly discussed. Advantages of the proposed machine in comparison with standard (ring-ring) type charm-tau factory proposals will be the possibility of the search for rare decays of tau lepton and charm quark and study of D^0-D^-0 oscillations.

Physics Potential of the e-RHIC Based FEL-Nucleus Collider

Main parameters of the FEL-RHIC collider are estimated. The physics search potential of this machine is illustrated using excitations of the ^{232}Th nucleus as an example. It is shown that, due to the tunability and monochromacity of FEL beam and high statistics, proposed collider will play an important role in the field of ''traditional'' nuclear physics.

Spin-vibrational 1+ states in 140Ce

The properties of collective I^$Π$=1+ states in double even semimagic nucleus 140Ce are investigated in random phase approximation(RPA). The calculation of the B(M1) strength, elastic gamma-scattering cross section $σ_(gamma)(ω)$ and gamma-decay width $Σ_(gamma)(ω_i)$ show that in 140Ce the isovector spin-spin interactions concenrate the main strength of M1 transition at energy 7.89 MeV where the isovector spin-flip magnetic resonance may appear. The predisctions are consistent with the observed M1 strength in 140Ce which is seen to be concentrated within a range of about 0.8 MeV centered at an excitation of 7.95 MeV.

Linac*LHC Based ep, Gamma-p, eA, Gamma-A and FEL Gamma-A Colliders: Luminosity and Physics

Main parameters and physics goals of different colliders, which can be realized if a special 1 TeV energy linear electron accelerator or corresponding linear collider is constructed tangential to LHC, are discussed. It is shown that L_(ep)=10^(32)cm^(-2)s^(-1) at sqrt(s_(ep))=5.29 TeV can be achieved within moderate upgrade of LHC parameters. Then, Gamma-p collider with he same luminosity and sqrt(s)=4.82 TeV can be realized using Compton backscattering of laser beam off the electron beam. Concerning the nucleus beam, L*A=10^(31)cm^(-2)s^(-1) can be achieved at least for light and medium nuclei for both eA and Gamma-A options. Finally, colliding of FEL beam from an electron linac and nucleus beam from LHC will give a new opportunity to investigate nuclear spektroscopy and photo-nuclei reactions.
