  In a collaboration between CERN, PSI and Sincrotrone Trieste (ST), a series of four multipurpose X-band accelerating structures has been designed and fabricated. The structures have 72 cells with a phase advance of 5 pi/6 and include upstream and downstream wakefield monitors to measure the beam alignment. We give an overview of the electrical and mechanical design and describe the fabrication of the first units. We also present the results of the low level RF tests. Using measurements of the internal cell to cell misalignment, the residual transverse wake and the noise floor of the wake field monitors are computed. Furthermore, we present the first experiences running the structures under high power.

  The luminosity goal of the CLIC collider, currently under study, imposes micrometer mechanical stability of the 2-m-long two-beam modules, the shortest repetitive elements of the main linacs. These modules will be exposed to variable high power dissipation during operation resulting in mechanical distortions in and between module components. The stability of the CLIC module is being tested in laboratory conditions at CERN in a full-scale prototype module. In this paper, the revised finite element model developed for the CLIC two-beam module is described. In the current model, the structural behavior of the module is studied in more detail compared to the earlier configurations, in particular for what regards the contact modeling. The thermal and structural results for the module are presented considering the thermo-mechanical behavior of the CLIC collider in its primary operation modes. These results will be compared to the laboratory measurements to be done in 2012 with the full-scale prototype module. The experimental results will allow for better understanding of the module behavior and they will be propagated back to the present thermo-mechanical model.
