Layout of bunch compressor for Beijing XFEL test facility

In this paper, we describe the layout of the bunch compressor for the Beijing XFEL test facility (BTF). Our bunch compressor setup is different from the usual one due to the space limit. The compensation X-BAND cavity and the first bunch compressor are separate in distance. The electron bunch is decelerated first and then accelerated to enter the first bunch compressor. The simulation result shows that our setup works well, and the nonlinear term is well compensated. Also, we present the result about the CSR emittance dilution study. Finally, we develop a program to study microbunch instability in the second BTF bunch compressor.
