EUROPEAN FEL DESIGN STUDY (FP6)

EUROFEL Task Task5  · 

Superconducting CW and near-CW linacs

The reliable operation of superconducting RF technology for linacs has been demonstrated successfully at the existing TESLA Test Facility (TTF). However, there the focus has been on low-duty-factor, pulsed operation as planned for the TESLA Linear Collider.

For the proposed CW linac-based light sources, a number of critical aspects of the superconducting linac must be resolved for these infrastructures to be technically realizable and to reduce the required investment and operating cost. These issues will be addressed by the Partners of Task 5.
