Abstract
The linac injector for the Advanced Light Source (ALS) at LBL (Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory) was recently put into operation. Energy is 50 MeV, and frequency is 3 GHz. The electron gun delivers up to 6 nC in a 3.0-ns bunch at 120 kV. A train of bunches is injected into a 1-Hz booster and accelerated to 1.5 GHz for storage ring injection. A magnetic analysis system is used for optimizing the linac. Measured beam properties from the gun and after acceleration in the linac are described.<>
