  1. 1. Prospects for a Free Electron Laser at the FemtoMAX Beamline

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Johan Holmberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Free Electron Lasers; FEL; synchrotron radiation; MAX IV; FemtoMAX; GENESIS 1.3; XFEL; X-rays; soft X-rays; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : A Free Electron Laser (FEL), is a device that generates extremely coherent and brilliant radiation using electrons accelerated to relativistic velocities in a particle accelerator. The process utilises similar equipment to what is used at a synchrotron source like MAX IV, but in addition there is an interaction between the relativistic electron beam and the generated radiation to achieve an exponential growth in radiation intensity.

  3. 2. Developing an ML-based model for RF tuning of the DTL machine at ESS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Amin Hosseini Nejad; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The European Spallation Source (ESS) infrastructure is being constructed in Lund, and will be one of the most powerful research facilities of its type in the world. The ESS linear accelerator (linac) utilizes different accelerating sections where a wide variety of techniques should be employed to accelerate a beam of protons to 2 GeV kinetic energy through Radio Frequency (RF) cavities before being collided with a tungsten target for the final production of neutrons, through the process of spallation.

  4. 3. Cavity Beam Position Monitors State of the Art and Design Studies in the Context of the ILC Project

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Lunds Tekniska Högskola

    Author : Laura Karina Pedraza Motavita; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of this master thesis project is the study and evaluation of the design of cavity beam position monitors (BPM) for the International Linear Collider (ILC) project. The state-of-the-art of BPMs is investigated to determine the most appropriate existing BPM design for the requirements of the ILC. READ MORE

  5. 4. RF Compressor (SLED) Phase-Modulation to Reduce Peak Fields in the MAX IV Linear Accelerator

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Joel Ekström; [2023]
    Keywords : Accelerator; MAX IV; LINAC; Phase-modulation; SLED; Pulse compression; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : 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 power through several steps of amplification. At the end, pulse compression is used to further improve the energy gain at the cost of pulse-length. READ MORE

  6. 5. CHARACTERIZATION AND EVALUATION OF A NIPAM POLYMER GEL MRI DOSIMETER SYSTEM

    University essay from

    Author : Christian Waldenberg; [2022-11-08]
    Keywords : Medical physics; Normoxic polymer gel dosimeter; NiPAM;

    Abstract : Purpose: The normoxic polymer gel dosimeter based on N-isopropyl acrylamide (NiPAM) is a promising full 3D-dosimeter with high spatial resolution and near tissue equivalency. However, limited work have been done in vestigating this dosimeter. The dose response and reproducibility of a NiPAM dosimeter was investigated. READ MORE
