Low energy electron storage ring with tunable compaction factor

Rev Sci Instrum. 2007 Jul;78(7):075107. doi: 10.1063/1.2754393.

Abstract

A low energy electron storage ring is designed to have many desirable properties, such as varying momentum compaction factor, damping partition numbers, favorable betatron tunes for multiturn accumulations, and excellent dynamic aperture. This storage ring can be used for debunching rf linac beams in one turn, for compression of linac pulses, and more importantly for a compact photon source based on inverse Compton scattering of laser beams.
