Abstract

The SPARC project foresees the realization of a free electron laser operating at 500 nm driven by a high brightness photo-injector at a beam energy of 150-200 MeV. The SPARC photoinjector is also the test and training facility for the recently approved VUV/soft X-ray FEL project named SPARX [1]. The second stage of the commissioning, that is currently underway, foresees a detailed analysis of the beam matching with the linac in order to confirm the theoretically prediction of emittance compensation based on the “invariant envelope” matching, the demonstration of the “velocity bunching” technique in the linac and the characterisation of the spontaneous and stimulated radiation in the SPARC undulators. In this paper we report the experimental results obtained so far.
