New developments relating to compact X-band, SLED-I type pulse compressors being
developed at CERN for testing high gradient structures are described. Pulse compressors of …

An S band SLED-type pulse compressor has been manufactured by the Institute of High
Energy Physics, Beijing, trying to reach 100 MW maximum input power, which means the …

Radio Frequency (RF) pulse compressors are used in linear accelerators (Linac) to achieve
high power levels by shortening the RF pulse length. In their original form, the phase of the …

The adaptive control-based low-level radio frequency (LLRF) algorithm was developed for
the two-bunch operation of the Shanghai Soft-X-ray Free Electron Laser Facility (SXFEL) …

In this paper the study of the mechanisms responsible for the time varying beam current
losses in CTF3 (CLIC Test Facility 3), together with the feedbacks implemented to mitigate …

FERMI is a single-pass, linac-based, FEL user-facility covering the wavelength range from
80 nm to 4 nm and is located next to the third generation synchrotron radiation facility Elettra …

BackgroundShanghai Soft X-ray Free-electron Laser (SXFEL) is upgrading and requires to
operate in double-bunch mode instead of original mode to transport uniform energy along …

The SwissFEL is capable of generating high-power, tunable X-ray pulses that are used to
study molecular structure and dynamic processes at extremely fast timescales. The FEL …

Modern particle accelerators need strong electric fields in order to produce high energy
particles. Such high voltages are typically reached by injecting pulsed radio frequency …

Abstract A SLED (SLac Energy Doubler) RF pulse compressor is a passive RF component
which increases the peak RF power level at the cost of reducing the pulse length. The …
