35 megawatt multicycle THz pulses from a homemade periodically poled macrocrystal
Francois Lemery, Thomas Vinatier, Frank Mayet +7
High-power multicycle THz radiation is highly sought after with applications in medicine, imaging, spectroscopy, characterization and manipulation of condensed matter, and could su…
Performance analysis of the prototype THz-driven electron gun for the AXSIS project
G. Vashchenko, R. Assmann, U. Dorda +9
The AXSIS project (Attosecond X-ray Science: Imaging and Spectroscopy) aims to develop a THz-driven compact X-ray source for applications e.g. in chemistry and biology by using ult…
Beam Dynamics and Tolerance Studies of the THz-driven Electron Linac for the AXSIS Experiment
K. Galaydych, R. Assmann, U. Dorda +3
A dielectric-loaded linac powered by THz-pulses is one of the key parts of the "Attosecond X-ray Science: Imaging and Spectroscopy" (AXSIS) project at DESY, Hamburg. As in conventi…
Simulations on a potential hybrid and compact attosecond X-ray source based on RF and THz technologies
T. Vinatier, R. W. Assmann, U. Dorda +2
We investigate through beam dynamics simulations the potential of a hybrid layout mixing RF and THz technologies to be a compact X-ray source based on Inverse Compton Scattering (I…
Longitudinal phase space reconstruction simulation studies using a novel X-band transverse deflecting structure at the SINBAD facility at DESY
Daniel Marx, Ralph Assmann, Paolo Craievich +3
A transverse deflecting structure (TDS) is a well-known device for characterizing the longitudinal properties of an electron bunch in a linear accelerator. The standard use of such…
Full PIC simulation of a first ACHIP experiment @ SINBAD
Willi Kuropka, Frank Mayet, Ulrich Dorda +1
In laser illuminated dielectric accelerators (DLA) high acceleration gradients can be achieved due to high damage thresholds of the materials at optical frequencies. This is a nece…
