	An 11.4 GHz Photonic Band-gap (PBG) structure where the rods in the inner row have an elliptical cross-section has been designed at MIT and tested at high power and high repetition rate at SLAC. This structure exhibits lower surface magnetic fields on the rods relative to previous round-rod PBG structures tested at SLAC, which reduces the ohmic heating of the rod surface in an effort to reduce pulsed heating damage. This improved PBG structure was tested experimentally such as to avoid excessively high breakdown rates and surface temperature rise. The structure demonstrated performance comparable to disc-loaded waveguide (DLWG) structures with the same iris geometry, achieving greater than 100 MV/m gradient at a breakdown probability of less than 10-3 per pulse per m for 150 ns pulses. This level of performance demonstrates that elliptical-rod PBG structures could be candidates for future accelerator applications.

RF Breakdown experiments on short accelerating structures at SLAC have shown that properties of rf breakdown probability are reproducible for structures of the same geometry. At a given rf power and pulse shape, the rf breakdown triggers continuously and independently at a constant average rate. Hypotheses describing the properties of the rf breakdown probabilities involve defects of metal crystal lattices that move under forces caused by rf electric and magnetic fields. The dynamics of the crystal defects depend on the temperature of the structure. To study the dependence we designed and built an experimental setup that includes a cryogenically cooled single-cell, standing-wave accelerating structure. This cavity will be high power tested at the SLAC Accelerator Structure Test Area (ASTA).
