Description
The Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ) focuses on the development of high brightness electron sources for Free Electron Lasers (FELs) as well as on the applications of high brightness electron beams. In this talk, we will introduce the PITZ facility with its wide spectrum of beam parameters and its advanced diagnostics capabilities. The latest results of all three research directions will be presented: the development of new L-band normal conducting photocathode RF guns, the worldwide first high-power tunable narrow-band THz SASE FEL, and the new R&D platform FLASHlab@PITZ which offers unique research capabilities for tumor radiotherapy and radiation biology.
