Abstract
Under a joint collaboration between Grumman and BNL, a high-duty factor (>1%) photocathode electron gun is being constructed for use at the ATF facility at BNL. This gun was designed as the electron source for the proposed UV FEL Users´ Facility at BNL. The thermally induced stresses exceed the yield strength of OFHC copper. For this reason, the gun is fabricated from GlidCop, an aluminum oxide dispersion strengthened copper alloy
