Abstract:
Abstract In collaboration with Jefferson Laboratory, DESY and the A. Soltan Institute HZB developed a fully supercon- ducting RF photo-injector as a first step towards a high average current electron source for the BERLinPro ERL. This setup consists of a 1.6 cell superconducting gun cav- ity with a lead cathode plasma-arc deposited on the half cell backwall and a superconducting solenoid. The system, in- cluding a warm diagnostic beam-line section, was recently installed in the HoBiCaT test facility to study beam dy- namics within the ERL parameter range. This paper will give an overview of the horizontal cavity tests, dark current studies and beam measurements.
