6. Thereis a strong Connection between ultra-shortBunches andnovelAccelerators Why do we build a “conventional” Photo-Injector for SINBAD? Conventional S-band RF technology allows to produce stable and reproducible electron bunches. R&D on producing high brightnesse-buncheswith bunch length at fs/sub-fs and excellent arrival time stability: important research in its own right, enables understanding ultimate limitations in photo injectors. Characterization of ultra-short (~fs), low charge (~pC to sub-pC) bunches is technically challenging  R&D on novel diagnostics devices and fs-level synchronization. Short bunches fit into very compact (novel) accelerators with short accelerating field wavelength. They constitute excellent probes to measure energy gain and the quality of the acceleration. The chosen electron bunch energy (100-230MeV) helps with damping the space charge effect and velocity dispersion in beam transport, thus allowing reaching high brightness and >1kA local peak current; | ARES Linac | Barbara Marchetti, EAAC 2019

28. Conclusions and Outlook The SINBAD-ARES accelerator at DESY is a normal conducting S-band accelerator for the production of ultra-short bunches to be injected into novel accelerators. The accelerator will foresee two experimental areas for performing experiments in the different frameworks such as ACHIP collaboration, ARIES program and ATHENA project. The RF-gun and first cavity of the linac section are in the conditioning-phase. The photo-cathode laser has been commissioned. First electron beam is expected soon. The installation of the bunch compressor and high energy diagnostics beamline is planned for 2020. The design of the high energy diagnostics beamline including the novel PolariX TDS aims at the complete characterization of the phase-space of the beam with temporal resolution down to 0.2fs. | ARES Linac | Barbara Marchetti, EAAC 2019
