SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the design of beam lines for Free Electron Lasers (FELs), specifically seeking tools for creating scaled diagrams that include named devices and their properties. Participants recommend using MAD (Methodical Accelerator Design) for optics design and Draftsight for drawing, noting that while CAD software is costly, Draftsight is a free alternative. The importance of accurate and detailed schematics in beam line design is emphasized, as illustrated by shared examples of existing beam line diagrams.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Free Electron Laser (FEL) principles
  • Familiarity with MAD (Methodical Accelerator Design) software
  • Knowledge of Draftsight for technical drawing
  • Basic concepts of beam line components and their properties
NEXT STEPS
  • Research advanced features of MAD for optimizing beam line design
  • Explore Draftsight tutorials for effective technical drawing techniques
  • Investigate the specifications and properties of common beam line components
  • Examine case studies of successful Free Electron Laser beam line designs
USEFUL FOR

Engineers, physicists, and researchers involved in the design and implementation of Free Electron Lasers, as well as those interested in technical drawing and optics design.

Hi friends.

Does any of you knows anything about the beam line design tools ? I mean which program could be used to drow an electron beam line of a free electron laser from the gun to the dump ?

Each device have to be indicated by name and with some other properties. The diagram must be in scale.

I'm waiting for your answers ?

PS: Some examples are given below.

MAD for optics design and CAD/Draftsight for drawings.

CAD is expensive, though your institution may have a licence, Draftsight and MAD are free.
