TUPVA062 | Construction of the MYRRHA Injector | 2221 |
|
||
A collaboration of SCK•CEN, IAP and BEVATECH GmbH is currently constructing the room temperature CH section of the 16.6 MeV CW proton injector for the MYRRHA project. The elaboration of all the construction readiness files for the construction of the accelerating cavities of the first CH section (1.5 to 5.9 MeV) is ongoing. In parallel, the planning, development and fabrication of all further components of this accelerator section is in progress, while the full study for the remaining section is under preparation. This contribution is documenting the most recent status. | ||

Funding: BMBF Contr. No. 05P15RFRBA The High Charge State Injector (HLI) at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research in Darmstadt, Germany, serves as one of the two injector linacs for the UNILAC as well as dedicated injector for the upcoming cw linac project for super heavy element research. As the front end of the HLI is planned to be upgraded for cw operation a newly revised cw capable RFQ structure with an operating frequency of 108 MHz is required. The existent 4-rod structure, which was commissioned at the HLI in 2010, suffers from severe modulated rf power reflections originating from mechanical oscillations of the electrodes that both limit the achievable performance and impede stable operation*. Besides preceding vibration measurements that were done by GSI using a laser vibrometer**, the structural mechanical behavior of the 4-rod geometry was extensively analyzed using ANSYS Workbench. Thereby the crucial mechanical eigenmodes could be identified and their impact on the rf properties was investigated by simulations using CST MWS. A completely newly revised 4-rod RFQ design with optimized structural rigidity was developed of which a 6-stem prototype is currently being manufactured. *P.
