The new accelerator MESA (Mainz Energy Recovering Superconducting Accelerator) will provide an average CW electron beam current of up to 10 mA. Operating at 1.3 GHz, this corresponds to a bunch charge of 7.7 pC. The new DC photoemission source MIST is optimized for these requirements. A challenge is heating of the photocathode at high laser power. By a suitable mechanical construction and the use of specific materials, the heat can be dissipated during operation. Options for further improvements are discussed.
