	The Variable pulse length Storage Ring (BESSY VSR) upgrade to BESSY II at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) requires an upgrade on the RF systems in the form of high-voltage longitudinally focusing super conducting RF cavities of 1.5 GHz ad 1.75 GHz. For operation, coaxial RF power couplers capable of handling 13 kW peak power at standing wave operation are required for both the 1.5 GHz and 1.75 GHz cavities. The coupler is based on a design by Cornell University with modifications to suit frequency and coupling requirements. The coupler is intended to provide variable coupling with a range of Qext from 6x10⁶ to 6x10⁷ to allow flexibility to adjust to operating conditions of BESSY VSR. Here we present the RF design of the high-power coaxial coupler for BESSY VSR along with the design of the test stand for conditioning a pair of couplers.

The project goal is to simultaneously circulate both standard (some 10 ps long) and short (ps and sub-ps long) pulses offering the BESSY user community picosecond dynamics and high-resolution experiments. The concept relies on the installation of high-voltage SRF cavities operating at the 3rd and 3.5th harmonic whereby the beating of the two frequencies provides RF buckets for long and short bunches. Since these cavities will operate in CW and with high beam current (Ib=300 mA), the cavity design represents a challenging goal. In addition the need to avoid coupled bunch instabilities (CBI's), the installation of the VSR Cryomodule must fit in one of the available 4-m long low beta straights. To address the technological and engineering challenges techniques such as waveguide-damped cavities have been developed. First prototypes have been produced. In this paper, the present SRF developments are presented, including the cavities, high power couplers, higher-order mode absorbers and the cryomodule design.

Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin is developing BESSY VSR, a novel upgrade of the BESSY II facility to provide highly flexible pulse lengths while maintaining the flux and brilliance. The project goal is to simultaneously circulate both standard (some 10 ps long) and short (ps and sub-ps long) pulses offering the BESSY user community picosecond dynamics and high-resolution experiments.
