Superconducting Linac) machine [27]. Most recently, in 2004 beam breakup was observed for the first time in an ERL at the Jefferson Laboratory FEL Upgrade Driver [28]. 1.5 Outline The majority of the proposed applications for ERLs require an order of magnitude higher average beam current and/or an order of magnitude higher beam energy than has currently been demonstrated. Making these extrapolations raises many unanswered questions. The aim of this dissertation is to address issues with respect to both beam energy and average beam current. Chapter 2 describes an experiment that successfully energy recovered the beam in the CEBAF accelerator. By doing so, issues related to the energy recovery of a high energy beam and the preservation of beam quality of two co-propagating beams through a large-scale transport channel were addressed. In addition, operation with a lowered injection energy was demonstrated, thereby showing the viability of a high maximum-to-injector energy ratio (Emax/Einj) of 51:1. The remaining chapters are dedicated to studying the effects of high average current, specifically the multipass beam breakup instability, in Jefferson Labora- tory’s ERL-based FEL Upgrade Driver. Chapter 3 provides an overview of the Driver. The Upgrade’s predecessor, the IR FEL Demo, set the standard for ERL light sources by achieving a world-record (at the time) 2 kW of average laser power while also serving as a user facility. With the 10 kW FEL Upgrade, the frontier of energy recovering linacs continues to expand. Currently, the Upgrade Driver is the most substantial demonstration of energy recovery in the world, having recovered in excess of 1 MW of beam power. Chapter 4 derives an analytic model for BBU. Although relatively simple, the 17
analytic model elucidates many important features of the instability and yields a formula for the threshold current for beam stability. Application of this formula is restricted to simple systems (one cavity containing one HOM) and so it is neces- sary to use computer simulation codes to analyze more complex systems. A brief overview of three BBU codes developed at Jefferson Laboratory is given. Microwave measurements to characterize the HOMs in the FEL cryomodules were performed and used as inputs to the simulation codes. The results predict the onset of the BBU instability in the Upgrade Driver at 2 mA - well below the design operating current of 10 mA. Chapter 5 presents the results of experimental measurements to characterize BBU which was observed in the FEL Upgrade first in 2004. The primary goal of the measurements was to benchmark BBU simulation codes with experimental data. To that end, several methods to measure the threshold current for stability were developed. The beam transfer function measurement is described and shown to be a particularly useful technique as it can be used to extract the threshold current for a system while working in a regime where the beam is stable. This is in contrast to the method of measuring growth rates, which requires working in the regime where the beam is unstable. Together, however, these two techniques provide a complementary set of measurements. The measured threshold currents and the threshold current predicted from simulations were shown to agree to within 10% which represents the first time the codes have been benchmarked with experimental data. With the knowledge that BBU poses a threat to beam operations, Chapter 6 and Chapter 7 describe several BBU suppression techniques that were demonstrated - all with varying degrees of success. Chapter 6 discusses beam optical suppression techniques that require modifying the electron beam optics in a way so as to prevent the beam from coupling as strongly to harmful HOMs. These include implementing point-to-point focusing which is 18
