LCLS Machine Stability Tolerance Budget Lowest Noise Floor Requirement 0.5deg X-Band = 125fS Structure Fill time = 100nS Noise floor = -108dBc/Hz @ 11GHz 5MHz BW -134dBc/Hz @ 476MHz X-band X- RMS tolerance budget for <12% rms peak-current jitter or <0.1% rms final e− energy jitter. All tolerances are rms levels and the voltage and phase tolerances per klystron for L2 and L3 are Nk larger, assuming uncorrelated errors, where Nk is the number of klystrons per linac. P. Emma

SLAC Linac RF The PAD measures phase noise between the reference RF and the high power system. The beam sees 3.5uS of RF from SLED cavity which the klystron fills and is then dumped into the accelerator structure.
LINAC RF MEETS ALL LCLS SPECIFICATIONS for 2 Seconds when running well Amplitude fast time plots show pulse to pulse variation at 30Hz. Standard deviation in percent of average amplitude over 2 seconds are 0.026% for 22-6 and 0.036% for 22-7. Phase fast time plots show pulse to pulse variation at 30Hz. Standard deviation in degrees of 2856MHz over 2 seconds for the three stations are 0.037 for 22-6 and 0.057 for 22-7.

Phase as Seen by Electron is Difficult to Measure Accelerator Water Temperature Effects on SLED Phase[1] The tuning angle of the SLED cavity goes as: = tan -1 (2QLT), Where T = L/L = -/ QL= 17000 = 10-5 / F Thermal expansion of copper. =tan -1 (0.34T) Where T is in F. For small T, (S)= 20T(F) The relation between the tuning angle and the measured output phase of the klystron varies with the time after PSK with about the following relation: / = 0.35 just after PSK (S)= 7T(F) / = 0.50 800nS after PSK (S)= 10T(F) / T~ +8.5 S / F for SLED Cavity Accelerator Water Temperature Effects on the Accelerator Phase[2] The phase change of the structure goes as follows: = f Where = phase through structure = Angular frequency f = Filling time of structure = f = / x f / = -L/L = -T = -10-5 T / F for copper = -10-5 T / F22856MHz0.84S = -0.15 T rad/F = -8.6 T S / F / T = -8.6 S / F for Accelerator Structure Water / Accelerator Temperature Variation is 0.1F rms through structure is 0.86F rms [1] Info from D.
