Generation of energy bands in the electron beam with an asymmetric chicane-type emittance exchange beamline

An asymmetric chicane-type transverse to longitudinal emittance exchange beam line is investigated and presented in this paper. This design is more feasible for existing machines due to its coaxial arrangement of the components and dispense of symmetric requirement of two doglegs compared to two-dogleg type one. By inserting quadrupoles between the dogleg and deflecting cavity, the dispersion can be amplified and hence the bending angle of the chicane is reduced with the same deflecting cavity parameters which will reduce the coherent synchrotron radiation effect.
