Description
TRIUMF’s 30 MeV electron linac is transitioning from a commissioning operation to a user operation. The machine’s main user is ARIEL, which will be ready to take beam in 2026. But as of today, more users are upcoming, giving the machine the possibility to support scientific and medical experiments. Those upcoming users require modifications to the existing machine in order to support the change in the operational paradigm. For FLASH we needed technical development to shorten the access timeframe to the machine as well as small adaptions to the beamline. The optics adaptions we are putting forward to host the DarkLight experiment are more severe to handle the electron foil interaction. Terahertz is another upcoming user for the e-Linac, bringing high bunch charges, which are a challenge for our optics. All these changes will be presented.
