SIMULATIONS AND STUDIES OF ELECTRON BEAM DYNAMICS UNDER COMPTON BACK-SCATTERING FOR THE COMPACT X-RAY SOURCE ThomX

In this article are presented beam dynamics investigations of a relativistic electron bunch in the compact storage ring ThomX (50MeV), which is under construction at LAL to produce hard X-ray using Compton Back-Scattering (CBS). The effect of CBS has been implemented in a 6D tracking code. In addition to CBS, the influence of lattice non linearities and various collective effects on the flux of scattered Compton photons is investigated.
