FIG. 3.7: Illustration of path length management using correctors embedded in the 180 ◦<br />

dipole magnet.<br />

Under this condition, the electron beam will be decelerated on the second pass<br />

through the linac. However, due to the ease with which the path length can be<br />

adjusted, a recirculation path length of (n + 1<br />

4 )λRF can be generated as well. In<br />

this instance, the second pass beam travels through the linac at the zero crossing<br />

of the accelerating field and neither gains nor loses energy. The beam then makes a<br />

third pass through the machine and gains the appropriate path length differential,<br />

( 1 1 + 4 4 )λRF , for energy recovery. This scheme of 3-pass beam operation was first<br />

demonstrated at Bates [7] and later at Jefferson Laboratory’s IR FEL Demo [56]<br />

and also in the FEL Upgrade [57].<br />
