Abstract The Versatile Electron Linear Accelerator (VELA) is a facility designed to provide high quality electron beams for accelerator systems development, as well as industrial and scientific applications. A key performance indicator for many applications is the inherent beam jitter on the machine (temporal, momentum and positional). Analysis of this beam jitter indicates that there are several independent mechanisms driving the beam motion. We use model independent analysis to correlate various dominant modes of beam jitter and compare them to simulations. We also compare the dominant modes before and after intervention work on the DLLRF timing system, and determine the relevant changes in beam motion.
