Arc and Chicane Bunch Compression Schemes for Hard and Soft X-Ray Free Electron Laser Facilities: A Comparison

Adam Dixon, Peter Williams, Sara Thorin +4

X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) facilities require progressive compression of electron bunches as they are accelerated from an injector to the undulators. This is necessary to ach…

Shake-down spectroscopy as state- and site-specific probe of ultrafast chemical dynamics

Henry J. Thompson, Matteo Bonanomi, Jacob Pedersen +27

Tracking the multifarious ultrafast electronic and structural changes occurring in a molecule during a photochemical transformation is a challenging endeavor that benefits from rec…

Mitigation of the Microbunching Instability Through Transverse Landau Damping

A. D. Brynes, G. Perosa, C. -Y. Tsai +14

The microbunching instability has been a long-standing issue for high-brightness free-electron lasers (FELs), and is a significant show-stopper to achieving full longitudinal coher…

Microbunching Instability Characterisation via Temporally Modulated Laser Pulses

A. D. Brynes, I. Akkermans, E. Allaria +19

High-brightness electron bunches, such as those generated and accelerated in free-electron lasers (FELs), can develop small-scale structure in the longitudinal phase space. This ca…

Beyond the Limits of 1D Coherent Synchrotron Radiation

A. D. Brynes, P. Smorenburg, I. Akkermans +21

An understanding of collective effects is of fundamental importance for the design and optimisation of the performance of modern accelerators. In particular, the design of an accel…
