Abstract :
A 5 GeV superconducting radiofrequency (SCRF) linac for the dual application of FEL driver and top-off injector for a storage ring is described. Starting from the FEL drive beam requirements of subpicosecond bunch lengths and kiloamp peak current the choice of frequency, gradient and operating modes of the linac are presented. Magnetic optics and RF system descriptions follow to provide the specified beam parameters. Accelerator design issues are identified for future studies.
