Popis: | The superconducting electron accelerator ELBE at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf is currently upgraded to enable continuous wave operation with bunch charges of up to 1 nC and durations down to 200 fs (RMS). The new beamline will drive a THz source and an X-ray source based on Thomson scattering. In collaboration with DESY, Hamburg, an optical synchronization system based on a mode locked master laser is currently being set up to ensure timing stability on the few 10 fs level. It allows high temporal resolution pump-probe experiments and new electron beam diagnostics like bunch arrival-time monitors. The synchronization system is assembled in a dedicated laboratory to ensure stable environmental conditions. In this paper the concept of the optical synchronization system is presented and first experience on the link stabilization system, its installation and commissioning is reported. |
