dc.description.abstractThe Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC) is a proposed future particle-physics project colliding 60 GeV electrons from a six-pass recirculating energy-recovery linac (ERL) with 7 TeV protons stored in the LHC. The ERL technology allows for much higher beam current and, therefore, higher luminosity than a traditional linac. The high-current, high-energy electron beam can also be used to drive a free electron laser (FEL). In this study, we investigate the performance of an LHeC-based FEL, operated in the self-amplified spontaneous emission mode using electron beams after one or two turns, with beam energies of, e.g., 10, 20, 30 and 40 GeV, and aim at producing x-ray pulses at wavelengths ranging from 8 to 0.5 angstrom. In addition, we explore a possible path to use the 40 GeV electron beam for generating photon pulses at much lower wavelengths, down to a few picometer. We demonstrate that such ERL-based high-energy FEL would have the potential to provide orders of magnitude higher average brilliance at angstrom wavelengths than any other FEL either existing or proposed. It might also allow a pioneering step into the picometer wavelength regime.

dc.description.sponsorshipWe thank Herwig Schopper, the Chair of the LHeC International Advisory Committee, for hinting at the use of the LHeC as an FEL. Particular thanks go to Sven Reiche from PSI, and to Gianluca Geloni and Svitozar Serkez from the European XFEL, for enlightening discussions on GENESIS simulations and effects at very short wavelengths. We are grateful to Alex Bogacz from Jefferson Lab for providing the LHeC optics files in MAD-X [76] format, which we converted to ELEGANT [37] . We also acknowledge continued encouragement from Oliver Bruning and Max Klein.
