Abstract

Electron-Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (eRHIC) is an upgrade project for RHIC. A 30GeV energy recovery linac (ERL) will provide a high quality electron beam to collide withproton and ion beams. It is natural to think about taking advantage of using this electronbeam for FEL operation [1]. Since the beam current in ERL arcs has to stay low, a strongbunch compressor is a crucial component for such FEL scheme. In such compressors, the CSReffect plays very important role and can adversely affect the beam quality. In this paper,we present our novel bunch compressor design with CSR suppression scheme. We also study itspotential for FEL operation at eRHIC.
