Abstract:
A new generation of particle accelerators based on an Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) is a promising tool for a number of new applications. These include high brilliance light sources in a wide range of photon energies, electron cooling of ion beam and ERL-based electron-hadron colliders. Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin started a feasibility study of GeV-scale multi-turn ERL-based light source (LS). This LS will work in diffraction limited regime in X-rays and with a short length of a light pulse in femtosecond region. The average and peak brightness will be at least an order of magnitude higher than synchrotronbased LS. In this work an overview of the future multiturn light source is given. Estimations of the Beam Break Up instability are presented.
