Feasibility Study of a Low Energy Laser Driven Plasma Injector for ELSA — •Michael Switka and Klaus Desch — Physikalisches Institut der Universität Bonn

The injector of the 3.2 GeV ELSA storage ring consists of a 26 MeV linear accelerator and a 1.2 GeV booster synchrotron. The advent of functional plasma-based MeV electron accelerators may raise a prospective opportunity to replace the conventional Linac, which currently delivers electron pulses of up to 16 nC at a repetition rate of 50 Hz. We conduct a feasibility study of using a plasma based injector for the booster synchrotron. For this, we improve the diagnostic capabilities of the Linac transfer beamline and the injector synchrotron to obtain and verify acceptance parameters which are to be matched to beam properties from contemporary operated laser plasma accelerator setups. Possible facility operating modes using a plasma based injector are evaluated.
