Proposal of a novel APPLE‐KNOT undulator by selecting the KNOT field as the dominant magnetic field

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
The degradation of circular polarization state in conventional APPLE‐KNOT undulators has been noted. To overcome this limitation, we propose a novel APPLE‐KNOT undulator design which utilizes the KNOT magnetic field as the dominant component.The APPLE‐KNOT undulator forms composite magnetic fields by superimposing an APPLE field and a KNOT field with ...
