Abstract
ARES is an electron linear accelerator at the SINBAD facility at DESY. It aims to deliver reliable high-brightness beams with an energy in the range of 50 MeV to 150 MeV with fs to sub-fs bunch lengths. This is ideal for injection into novel high-gradient acceleration devices, such as dielectric laser accelerators (DLA), accelerator components R&D and medical applications. The ARES linac has been recently commissioned. Here we report the results of beam based alignment of focusing solenoids of ARES. The alignment is an important part of commissioning and is crucial for the beam quality.
