Use of Coherent Transition Radiation to Set Up the APS RF Thermionic Gun to Produce High-Brightness Beams for SASE FEL Experiments
Nicholas Sereno, Michael Borland, Alex Lumpkin
We describe use of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) rf thermionic gun, alpha magnet beamline, and linac to produce a stable high-brightness beam in excess of 100 amperes peak curre…

A Highly Flexible Bunch Compressor for the APS LEUTL FEL
Michael Borland, John Lewellen, Steve Milton
The LEUTL FEL at the APS has achieved gain at 530 nm with peak beam current \~100 A. In an effort to push to 120 nm and beyond, we have designed and are commissioning a bunch compr…

Automated Operation of the APS LINAC using the Procedure Execution Manager
R. Soliday, S. Pasky, M. Borland
The Advanced Photon Source (APS) linear accelerator has two thermionic cathode rf guns and one photocathode rf gun. The thermionic guns are used primarily for APS operations while…
