Abstract

The CompactLight European consortium is designing a state-of-the-art x-ray free-electron laser driven by radiofrequency X-band technology. Rooted in experimental data on photo-injector performance in the recent literature, this study estimates analytically and numerically the performance of the CompactLight delivery system for bunch charges in the range 75–300 pC. Space-charge forces in the injector, linac transverse wakefield, and coherent synchrotron radiation in bunch compressors are all taken into account. The study confirms efficient lasing in the soft x-rays regime with pulse energies up to hundreds of microjoules at repetition rates as high as 1 kHz.
