The most conspicuous example is the intense radiation produced by electron in a synchrotron orbit. It is sometimes concentrated in a certain frequency range by ‘wiggling‘ the beam as it leaves the machine with the help of a few magnets so as to follow a shape like the outline of a camel’s back. Such a device is called wiggler. Many wiggler in succession, say 50 or more, serve to concentrate the radiation spatially into a narrow cone, and spectrally into a narrow frequency interval. The beam is made wavy and waves are produced, and for this reason a multi-period wiggler is called an undulator. TÁMOP-4.1.1.C-12/1/KONV-2012-0005 projekt 3 History of insertion devices 1947 Vitaly Ginzburg showed theoretically that undulators could be built. 1951/1953 The first undulator was built by Hans Motz. 1976 Free electron laser radiation from a superconducting helical undulator. 1979/1980 First operation of insertion devices in storage rings. 1980 First operation of wavelength shifters in storage rings Today few tens of 3rd generation synchrotron radiation light sources (SASE FEL) TÁMOP-4.1.1.C-12/1/KONV-2012-0005 projekt 4 Dipole magnet A dipole magnet provides us a constant field, B. • The field lines in a magnet run from North to South. • The field shown at right is positive in the vertical direction. In an accelerator lattice, dipoles are used to bend the beam trajectory. The set of dipoles in a lattice defines the reference trajectory: TÁMOP-4.1.1.C-12/1/KONV-2012-0005 projekt 5 Quadrupole Partice focusing magnet system → Quadrupole • Quadrupole has 4 poles • A quadrupole magnet imparts a force proportional to distance from the center. • According to the right hand rule (the force on a particle on the right side of the magnet is to the right, and the force on a similar particle on left side is to the left.) • This magnet is horizontally defocusing. A distribution of particles in (x) would be defocused! What about the vertical direction? → A quadrupole which defocuses in one plane focuses in the other. TÁMOP-4.1.1.C-12/1/KONV-2012-0005 projekt 6 Focus-Drift-Defocus-Drift with quadrupole Quadrupoles focus in one plane while defocusing in the other. So, how can this be used to provide net focusing in an accelerator? Consider the optical analogy of two lenses, with focal lengths f1 and f2, separated by a distance d: 1 1 1 푑 푓 푓1=−푓2 1 푑 = + − = 푓12 푓1 푓2 푓1푓2 푓12 푓1푓2 The key is to alternate focusing and defocusing quadrupoles. This is called a FODO lattice (Focus-Drift-Defocus-Drift). : TÁMOP-4.1.1.C-12/1/KONV-2012-0005 projekt 7 Chicane • The most widely used longitudinally dispersive element is a chicane • Typically consists of four dipole magnets • Particles with lower energies are bent more and have longer path lengths, while particles with higher energies are bent less and have shorter path lengths • One primary application of a chicane is to compress the beam to obtain high peak currents • The process of bunch compression, to first order, can be described as a linear transformation TÁMOP-4.1.1.C-12/1/KONV-2012-0005 projekt 8 Chicane 2 3 ∆푧 = 푅56훿1 + 푇566훿1 + 푈5666훿1 + ⋯ 2 푅 ≈ −2휃2 퐿 + 퐷 56 3 3 푇 ≈ − 푅 566 2 56 푈5666 ≈ 2푅56 TÁMOP-4.1.1.C-12/1/KONV-2012-0005 projekt 9 Outline Introduction and history of insertion devices Dipole Quadropole Chicane Undulators .

Now, reaching up to 1.5 T is possible, but - requires very high remanent field material, - small magnet gap, - relatively long period. To reach higher field level is possible using permanent magnets if ferromagnetic poles are included in the design. ⟹ Hybrid design TÁMOP-4.1.1.C-12/1/KONV-2012-0005 projekt 16 Hybrid insertion devices Permanent magnet + Fe-pole: P.
