Octupole based current horn suppression in multistage bunch compression with emittance growth correction

High brightness electron beams are critical for x-ray free-electron laser performance. To achieve higher peak current, strong longitudinal compression often produces electron beams with peaks in the head and/or tail of the current profile. These current horns are formed after bunch compression due t...
