Figure 3
Electron beam jitter performance obtained from the Elegant simulation for the three configurations of bunch compressors (BC1-BC2, BC1-BC3 and 3-BC) and the four different RF jitter cases of Fig. 2: (a) projected emittance (ɛx), (b) relative mean energy jitter, and (c) arrival time jitter. Both the relative mean energy jitter and arrival time jitter are the r.m.s. values of their corresponding outputs from the 300 Elegant runs. The projected emittance (ɛx) is the mean value with error bar from the 300 Elegant outputs. In the simulation, other errors such as the incoming timing jitter from the injector and the jitters of magnet power supplies are not included; thus, the jitters, particularly the arrival time jitter, estimated from the simulation would be an underestimation of the actual jitter performance of the linac. |
