Emittance Studies (continuations)

CST Particle Studio

Repeat all previous simulations up to EMSY1 using CST PS

Comparisons of emittance at EMSY1 between CST PS simulations, DG-FEM simulations, Astra simulations, and the measurement data

Numerical procedures:

− All bunches only tracked up to 3 cm behind cathode in CST PS, then continue tracking with Astra using the bunches obtained in CST PS

CST PS Simulations:

Conclusions: − There is a modeling error in

Astra − Still no explanation for the

systematic shift w.r.t. laser spot size (observed in all simulations)

Probable causes for the shift: − actual laser spot sizes

smaller than reported in the literature

− bunch transverse size generated at the cathode ≠ laser spot size

Charge Extraction : Motivation & Assumptions

Motivation: Astra simulations predict space charge limit at less than 1 nC for XY_rms = 0.3 mm, whereas 1 nC and even higher bunch charges were detected experimentally.

Assumptions

II. Laser produced just the maximum number of particles that can be emitted at the cathode without space charge limitations

I. Laser produced as more particles as one can inject at the cathode

Main Simulation Parameters: Q0: initial total bunch charge, to be injected at cathode Qb: total emitted bunch charge XY_rms = 0.3 mm, flat top, 2.2/21.46\2.2 ps

Q0=arbitrary, Qb = ?

Qb = Q0 = ?

• Simulation Scheme

Assumption ΙΙ: Qb = Q0 = ?

Q0: initial total bunch charge, to be injected at the cathode Qb: total emitted bunch charge Charge scanning range: (0-2) nC Charge resolution: ~ 50 pC Laser spot size: XY_rms = 0.3 mm Temporal Profile: flat top, 2.2/21.46\2.2 ps

for comparison purpose

the injected charge at cathode is fully extracted

Total emitted bunch charge simulated with CST PS without Schottky-like effect can be very close to the measured total bunch charge.

To explain the M-S difference in produced total bunch charge, Schottky-like effect probably not very important??

Charge Extraction — Test Results with Assumption Ι: RF Field Impact

Preliminary results − RF field impacts for two cases: XY_rms = 0.3 mm and

0.35 mm by applying different voltages

− Tests based on assumption Ι: no numerical convergence

− Calculations with assumption ΙΙ still in progress

• Relative changes in total bunch charge showed stronger RF field impact for XY_rms = 0.3 mm (testing).

Conclusions

Emittance studies (continuations) − There is a modeling error in Astra.

− Still no explanation for the systematic shift w.r.t. laser spot size (observed in all type of simulations).

Photoemission studies: bunch charge extraction (new) − Total emitted bunch charge simulated with CST PS fits the measurement data well at

XY_rms = 0.3 mm for different gun phases.

− M-S comparisons for lower laser transmissions and different RF fields showed good agreements.

− Schottky-like effect may not be very important for explaining the M-S discrepancy in produced bunch charge.

− Preliminary tests showed stronger RF impact for higher space charge density.

Next steps: − Interpolation of laser transmission and maximum charge produced by the laser to space

charge limits?

− Further photoemission studies: simultaneous variation of multi-parameters.
