Summary Ø Since our group has no previous experience in the design of RF electron guns, until now the tasks carried out have been aimed to get a solid background in this subject. Ø We have contacted and visited the group of the Prof. Massimo Ferrario at the INFN in Frascati, to get support and advice about the planning of the project tasks. Ø An exhaustive bibliographic research (books, articles) in RF photoinjector design theory has been performed. This task is still in progress. Some of the bibliography revisited: • T. P. Wangler, “RF Linear Accelerators”, ed. Wiley-VCH, 2 nd edition, 2008. • T. Rao, D. H. Dowell, “An Engineering guide to photoinjectors”, 2013. • M. Reiser, “Theory and design of Charged Particle Beams”, ed. Wiley-VCH, 2 nd edition, 2008. • D. Alesini, “Power Coupling”, CAS - CERN Accelerator School: Specialised Course on RF for Accelerators; 8 - 17 Jun 2010, Ebeltoft, Denmark. • D. Alesini et al. , “New technology based on clamping for high gradient radio frequency photogun”, Physical Review Special Topics, Accelerators and Beams 18, 092001 (2015). • L.

Summary Ø Recently, we have started to use Electromagnetic Codes (2 D: SUPERFISH, 3 D: HFSS) to analyse some simple RF structures which are the basis of the RF photoinjector. 1. 2.

Summary Ø We have also contacted with the group of Prof. J. Zapata at the Polytechnical University of Madrid, which are experts in the analysis of RF structures by means of computational methods based on the Finite Element Method. Ø They have developed in-house a 3 D Electromagnetic Code which is able to analyse RF structures, in particular RF photoinjectors. References: • J. M. Gil, J. Monge, J. Rubio, J.

Summary Ø We have sent them the scheme of a realistic RF gun in order to get it analysed with their code. Scheme of 21/2 RF gun. Extracted from: J. Rodier et al. , “Construction of the Alpha-X Photoinjector Cavity”, Proceedings of EPAC 2006, Edinburgh, Scotland. 5
Summary Ø In the past days, we have contacted with Prof. Avni Aksoy from the University of Ankara, who has provided us the SUPERFISH files for an X-band 5. 6 Cell RF gun Scheme of the 5. 6 RF gun Electric field along the axis of the RF gun Ø We are studying this design in order to get a better understanding of realistic photinjector structures and how to analyse them using SUPERFISH. 6
