Design of a New Preinjector for the MAX Recirculator to be Used in EUROFEL

The MAX-lab recirculator injector will be equipped with a new preinjector system. The aim is to reduce the emittance, increase the charge and achieve a proper timing between accelerator and laser systems. All is aimed at the MAX-lab test facility for HG built in collaboration with BESSY in the EUROFEL program. The preinjector system consists of a photo cathode RFgun with an emittance compensating solenoid. Special issues regard the injection of the new beam into the beam path of the MAX recirculator and the conservation of beam parameters.
