Abstract
The Gun Test Facility (GTF) was built to test high-brightness sources for the proposed Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at SLAC. The longitudinal emittance has been determined by measuring the energy spectrum after the linac as a function of the linac phase. The phase-space parameters defining the beam pulse width, correlated energy spread, and slice energy spread at the linac entrance (∼5 MeV beam energy) are fit to the measured energy spectra. A large, linear energy–time correlation is observed for bunch charges from 15 to 300 pC. Preliminary Parmela calculations show this correlation results from the strong longitudinal space charge forces in this short 2-ps long bunch.
