Abstract

The volume capture in classical relativistic mechanics is considered as a scattering process for the high energy charged particles in a field with no central or mirror symmetry. The parameters of volume capture for potentials with smooth variable curvature are received and analyzed.

Integration of Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Knowledge Access in the ELBE Accelerator Control System

The efficient operation of accelerator facilities increas- ingly relies on rapid access to heterogeneous operational knowledge, including logbooks, interlock reports, machine parameters, and historical archive data. At ELBE, we pro- posed a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) frame- work that integrates facility documentation and operational records into a unified AI-assisted support tool for operators. The system is expected to index electronic logbooks, ma- chine archive time-series data, and subsystem manuals using domain-adapted embeddings stored in a vector database. User queries will be expected to be processed through a large language model that retrieves the most relevant oper- ational context and generates structured, operator-oriented responses with traceable source references. This contribu- tion presents the system architecture, data integration strat- egy, and challenges toward real-time AI-assisted accelerator operation

Stable 50 MeV Beams from a 100 Hz Laser-Wakefield Accelerator Driven by an OPCPA Laser

We demonstrate a laser-wakefield accelerator driven by a high-repetition-rate optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification (OPCPA) laser, producing stable, quasi-monoenergetic electron beams at 100 Hz. Using 70 mJ, 8.1 fs laser pulses, we obtain 47 MeV electron beams with 15 pC charge and an intrinsic energy spread below 10%. Measurements over 10,000 consecutive shots show rms fluctuations of only 1.4% in peak energy and 12% in charge, together with low pointing jitter. Principal-component analysis reveals that the beam fluctuations are described by five physically interpretable modes, dominated by slow variations below 1 Hz. Particle-in-cell simulations reproduce the measured spectrum and show that nonlinear self-focusing localizes ionization injection, resulting in the observed narrow energy distribution. The demonstrated combination of electron energy, charge, beam quality, and stability represents a significant step toward high-average-power laser-plasma accelerators.

Thermomechanical rf breakdown from magnetically focused field emission in high-gradient normal-conducting cavities

Normal-conducting radiofrequency (rf) cavities for muon-collider ionization cooling must operate at high accelerating gradients in strong solenoidal magnetic fields, where rf breakdown can be enhanced by the magnetic focusing of field-emitted electrons. In this work, field-emitted electrons were tracked in the realistic field maps of rectilinear cooling-lattice cavities to test the validity of the previously developed localized-bombardment picture with simplified field maps. Under comparable reduced-field assumptions, the tracking results show good agreement with previous results. The full rf eigenmode fields and nonuniform solenoidal fields modify the idealized beamlet structure, producing rf phase dependent centroid shifts and broadened impact distributions from solenoid fringe fields. Nevertheless, the original model remains a useful framework for estimating limits on operating gradients. The thermal response is evaluated analytically using this model, with material properties varied to assess the coupled effects of heat transport and thermomechanical damage threshold. These results can inform cavity testing in strong solenoidal fields, muon ionization cooling channel designs, and other applications requiring high-gradient rf operation in magnetic fields.
