Commissioning of the New Injector Laser System for the Short-Pulse Project at FLASH — •Tim Plath1, Juliane Rönsch-Schulenburg1, and Bernd Steffen2 — 1Universität Hamburg, Luruper Chaussee 149, 22761 Hamburg — 2DESY, Notkestraße 85, 22607 Hamburg
In order to extend the parameter range of FLASH towards shorter electron pulses down to a few femto-second self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) pulses, shorter bunches with very small charges of a few tens of picocoulombs directly at the photo injector are necessary. To achieve so short bunches at FLASH, a new injector laser delivering pulses of 1 to 5 ps duration has been installed and commissioned. The influence of the laser parameters on the electron beam was studied theoretically.
