Description
The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) project [1] at SLAC uses a dense 15 GeV
electron beam passing through a long undulator to generate extremely bright x-rays
at 1.5 angstroms. The project requires electron bunches with a nominal peak current
of 3.5kA and bunch lengths of 0.020mm (70fs). The RF stability required by the
bunch
compressors is tighter than what is currently required to run experiments. This
paper discribes the upgrades to the RF monitoring and control system required to
meet the 100fS phase stability requirements.
