Simulations of stray radiation in the European XFEL undulators with the Geant4 toolkit

Lopez Basurco, Guillermo January 2022 (has links)
The European XFEL is an X-ray free electron laser research facility that generates ultrashort, high intensity flashes. Three SASE undulator systems are made of undulator segments and intersection components. Permanent magnets that form the segments, may potentially suffer demagnetization due to the stray radiation that comes from the interaction between electrons and the beam pipe. A gamma spectrometer (GR1-A, developed by Kromek) is planned to be placed at the entrance of one of the undulator segments of SASE1. Monte Carlo simulations, using Geant4, have been performed to study gamma radiation flux at possible measurement areas. The results show that in some cells the expected flux is larger than the maximum throughput, while for two segments there are areas which satisfy the limitations of the detector. An improvement of the geometry of the Geant4 code has also been done to make simulations more in line with the real systems. A comparison between dose results from the new and the former code shows that components placed at the intersections have a significant impact on dose distributions, especially quadrupole magnets.
