Final quality assurance plan

Final quality assurance plan: Specifying the definitions and standards used in the project. Describing the guidelines for preparing consistent reports and design estimates in the study. (Task 1.3)

Report on optimal beam handling

It is also necessary to match and diagnose the electron beam in order to deliver high brightness electron beams, with given optical functions (i.e. emittance, Twiss functions) to the plasma channel. The optics of the transfer lines with their performance will be given. Explanations about the made choices will be exposed.

Design report photo-injector

The goal of the simulation campaign is the definition of the best properties of the injected bunch, i.e. charge, separation, bunch length, in order to achieve the best final brightness. Simulations will allow completing the design report for the most suitable RF photo-injector for LWFA scheme, in order to accomplish the most stable and performing acceleration regime and to define the accelerator working point. The main characteristics of the photo-injector will be detailed (i.e. laser characteristics, photocathode, cavities, emittance compensation schemes) and tools for the diagnostics of the required electron beam parameters will be defined.
