/ Zhao, Yongke (CERN) ; Aksoy, Avni (Ankara U. ; CERN) ; Castañeda Cortés, Hector Mauricio (Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.) ; Dunning, David (Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.) ; Latina, Andrea (CERN) ; Thompson, Neil (Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.)
The CompactLight collaboration designed a compact and cost-effective hard X-ray FEL facility, complemented by a soft X-ray option, based on X-band acceleration, capable of operating at 1 kHz pulse repetition rate. In this paper, we present a new simple start-to-end optimisation strategy that is developed for the CompactLight accelerator beamline, focusing on the hard X-ray mode. [...]

CompactLight (XLS) is an International Collaboration of 24 partners and 5 third parties, funded by the European Union through the Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme. The main goal of the project, which started in January 2018 with a duration of 36 months, is the design of an hard X-ray FEL facility beyond today’s state of the art, using the latest concepts for bright electron photo-injectors, high-gradient accelerating structures, and innovative short-period undulators.

The CompactLight European consortium is designing a state-of-the-art X-ray free-electron
laser driven by radiofrequency X-band technology. Rooted in experimental data on photo-injector
performance in the recent literature, this study estimates analytically and numerically the performance
of the CompactLight delivery system for bunch charges in the range 75–300 pC. [...]

S-Band Transverse Deflecting Structure Design for CompactLight
/ Wu, Xiaowei (CERN) ; Di Mitri, Simone (Sincrotrone Trieste) ; Thompson, Neil (Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.) ; Wuensch, Walter (CERN)
The CompactLight project is currently developing the design of a next generation hard X-ray FEL facility, which is based on high-gradient X-band (12 GHz) structures. However, to carry out pump-and-probe experiments in the project, two-bunch operation with a spacing of 10 X-band rf cycles is proposed. [...]

CompactLight design study

Rome La Sapienza (main)) ; Bellaveglia, Marco (Frascati) ; Bernhard, Axel (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Bosco, Fabio (U. Rome La Sapienza (main)) ; Buonomo, Bruno (Frascati) et al.
The H2020 CompactLight Project aims at designing the next generation of compact X-rays Free-Electron Lasers, relying on very high gradient accelerating structures (X-band, 12 GHz), the most advanced concepts for high brightness electron photo injectors, and innovative compact short-period undulators. Compared to existing facilities, the proposed facility will benefit from a lower electron beam energy, due to the enhanced undulators performance, and will be significantly more compact, with a smaller footprint, as a consequence of the lower energy and the high-gradient X-band structures.

The Horizon 2020 Project EuPRAXIA (European Plasma Research Accelerator with eXcellence In Applications) is producing a conceptual design report for a highly compact and cost-effective European facility with multi-GeV electron beams accelerated using plasmas. EuPRAXIA will be set up as a distributed Open Innovation platform with two construction sites, one with a focus on beam-driven plasma acceleration (PWFA) and another site with a focus on laser-driven plasma acceleration (LWFA).

Architectural Considerations for Recirculated and Energy-Recovered Hard XFEL Drivers
/ Douglas, David (Jefferson Lab) ; Angal-Kalinin, Deepa (Daresbury ; Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.) ; Benson, Stephen (Jefferson Lab) ; Charles, Tessa (CERN) ; Powers, Tom (Jefferson Lab) ; Roblin, Yves (Jefferson Lab) ; Satogata, Todd (Jefferson Lab) ; Tennant, Chris (Jefferson Lab) ; Thompson, Neil (Daresbury ; Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.) ; Wheelhouse, Alan (Daresbury ; Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.) et al.
A confluence of events motivates discussion of design options for hard XFEL driver accelerators. Firstly, multiple superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) driven systems are now online (European XFEL), in construction (LCLS-II), or in design (MARIE); these provide increasing evidence of the transformational potential they offer for fundamental science with its concomitant benefits.
