We propose and demonstrate that a gamma-gamma collider with W_gg < 12 GeV can be added to the European XFEL with a minimal disruption to its main program. High-energy photons will be obtained by Compton scattering of 0.5 micron laser photons on the existing 17.5 GeV electron beams. Such a gamma-gamma collider would be an excellent place for the development and application of modern technologies: powerful lasers, optical cavities, superconducting linacs, and low-emittance electron sources -- as well as training the next generation of accelerator physicists and engineers. The physics program would include spectroscopy of C=+ resonances in various J^P states bbar{b}, cbar{c}, four-quark states, quark molecules and other exotica) in a mass range barely scratched by past and not covered by any current or planned experiments. Variable circular and linear polarizations will help in the determination of quantum numbers and measurement of polarization components of the gamma-gamma cross section (sigma_perp, sigma_parallel, sigma_0, sigma_2).

We report measurements of the photon beam asymmetry $Sigma$ for the reaction $vec{gamma} pto K^+Sigma^0$(1193) using the GlueX spectrometer in Hall D at Jefferson Lab. Data were collected using a linearly polarized photon beam in the energy range of 8.2-8.8 GeV incident on a liquid hydrogen target. The beam asymmetry $Sigma$ was measured as a function of the Mandelstam variable $t$, and a single value of $Sigma$ was extracted for events produced in the $u$-channel. These are the first exclusive measurements of the photon beam asymmetry $Sigma$ for the reaction in this energy range. For the $t$-channel, the measured beam asymmetry is close to unity over the $t$-range studied, $-t=(0.1-1.4)~$(GeV/$c$)$^{2}$, with an average value of $Sigma = 1.00pm 0.05$. This agrees with theoretical models that describe the reaction via the natural-parity exchange of the $K^{*}$(892) Regge trajectory. A value of $Sigma = 0.41 pm 0.09$ is obtained for the $u$-channel integrated up to $-u=2.0$~(GeV/$c$)$^{2}$.

KEK-ATF is studying low emittance, multi-bunch electron beam for the future linear collider. The energy instability of the 1.5 GeV linac has been a problem making the beam injection to the damping ring unstable. Because the unstable beam generates al so large amount of the radiation, the beam current is limited by the KEK radiation safety policy much lower than what we expect. Stabilizing the S-band linac is therefore important not only to improve the beam quality, but also to clear the radiation safety limit to start the multi-bunch operation. We have made various modifications to solve the problem on the electron gun, modulator, klystron etc. For the modulator, we have developed a feed-forward controlled De-Q module. This module compensates the voltage jitter by controlling the deQ timing with a feed-forward circuit because the amount of the excessive charge up is strongly correlated to the charge up slope that can be measured prior to the deQ timing. The energy stability was examined and was improved by a factor of 3, from 0.6% to 0.2% of itself. Modification for the feed-forward circuit to get more stability was made. The test for the new circuit is in progress. For the long term instability, phase-lock system for klystron RF is being installed. In the test operation, it showed a good performance and compensate the phase drift less than 1 deg.
We present a numerical estimate of the $gamma^* gamma^*$ total cross section at the designed 500 GeV $e^+e^-$ Linear Collider, based upon the BFKL Pomeron. We find that the event rate is substantial provided electrons scattered under small angles can be detected, and a measurement of this cross section provides an excellent test of the BFKL Pomeron.
The output SASE characteristics of the baseline European XFEL, recently used in the TDRs of scientific instruments and X-ray optics, have been previously optimized assuming uniform undulators without considering the potential of undulator tapering in the SASE regime. Here we demonstrate that the performance of European XFEL sources can be significantly improved without additional hardware. The procedure simply consists in the optimization of the undulator gap configuration for each X-ray beamline. Here we provide a comprehensive description of the soft X-ray photon beam properties as a function of wavelength and bunch charge. Based on nominal parameters for the electron beam, we demonstrate that undulator tapering allows one to achieve up to a tenfold increase in peak power and photon spectral density in the conventional SASE regime. We illustrate this fact for the SASE3 beamline. The FEL code Genesis has been extensively used for these studies. Based on these findings we suggest that the requirements for the SASE3 instrument (SCS, SQS) and for the SASE3 beam transport system be updated.

We report a new extraction of nucleon resonance couplings using pi- photoproduction cross sections on the neutron. The world database for the process gamma n --> pi- p above 1 GeV has quadrupled with the addition of new differential cross sections fr om the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab in Hall B. Differential cross sections from CLAS have been improved with a new final-state interaction determination using a diagramatic technique taking into account the NN and piN final-state interaction amplitudes. Resonance couplings have been extracted and compared to previous determinations. With the addition of these new cross sections, significant changes are seen in the high-energy behavior of the SAID cross sections and amplitudes.
