AbstractMany applications of accelerator technology require electron bunches with length of up to 1 ps, the peak current exceeding 1 kA and the normalized emittance being less than 100 mm·mrad. To produce such bunches, special electron-optical systems ensuring beam bunching, known as magnetic bunchers, are widely used. Designing a 540° magnetic buncher has started several years ago at BINP [1]. Such a device enables users to obtain extremely short bunches with large charge. Effective bunching is ensured by the particularly strong dependence of the time of flight on the particle energy. In addition, for reduction of the maintenance costs, the whole electron-optical system is based on permanent magnets. This paper presents a brief review of the current state of the buncher design and the impact of space charge on transverse beam dynamics in electron optical elements of the device under construction.
