Designs for ultimate storage rings typically employ two strategies to lower the emittances: 1) adding more bending magnets, and 2) using only focusing quadrupole magnets, with additional defocusing in the bending magnets. In an existing storage ring, the first strategy is precluded because the number of bends is typically fixed, but the second strategy could be used at modest expense. With the CESR storage ring as an example, we show how this is possible and propose an optics that reduces its emittance by more than a factor of 20. Furthermore, such an upgrade would could be installed incrementally without any long dark-time period.

The proposed energy recovery linac at Cornell aims for high beam currents and short bunch lengths, the combination of which requires efficient damping of the higher order modes (HOMs) being present in the superconducting cavities. Numerical simulations show that the expected HOM power could be as high as 200 W per cavity with frequencies ranging to 40 GHz. Consequently, a beam line absorber approach was chosen. We will review the design, report on first results from a prototype and discuss further improvements.

Cornell University has proposed an energy-recovery linac (ERL) based synchrotron-light facility which can provide greatly improved X-ray beams due to the high electron-beam quality that is available from a linac. As part of the phase 1 R&D program, critical challenges in the design were addressed, one of them being a full linac cryo-module. It houses 6 superconducting cavities- operated at 1.8 K in cw mode- HOM absorbers and a magnet/ BPM section. We will present the design being finalized recently and report on the fabrication status that started in late 2012.

Energy-Recovery Linacs (ERLs) are proposed as drivers for hard x-ray sources because of their ability to produce electron bunches with small, flexible cross sections and short lengths at high repetition rates. Cornell University has pioneered the design and hardware for ERL lightsources. This preparatory research for ERL-lightsource construction will be discussed. Important milestones have been achieved in Cornell's prototype ERL injector, including the production of a prototype SRF cavity that exceeds design specifications, the regular production of long-lived and low emittance cathodes, the acceleration of ultra-low emittance bunches, and the world-record of 65 mA current from a photoemission DC gun. We believe that demonstration of the practical feasibility of these technologies have progressed sufficiently to allow the construction of an ERL-based lightsource like that described in [erl.chess.cornell.edu/PDDR].

Cornell has recently ﬁnished producing and testing the ﬁrst prototype 7-cell main linac cavity for the Cornell Energy Recovery Linac, and completed the prototype cavity qualification program. This paper presents quality factor results from the horizontal test cryomodule (HTC) measurements, from the HTC-1 through HTC-3 experiments, reaching Q's up to 6 x 10¹⁰ at 1.6 K. We investigate the effect of thermal cycling on cavity quality factor and show that high quality factors can be preserved from initial mounting to fully outfitting the cavity with side-mounted input coupler and beam line absorbers. We also discuss the production of six additional main-linac cavities as we progress toward constructing a full 6-cavity cryomodule.

The Cornell energy recovery linac is designed to run a high energy (5 GeV), high current (100 mA), very low emittance beam (30 pm at 77 pC bunch charge). A major challenge to running such a large current continuously through the machine is the effect of strong higher-order modes(HOMs) that can lead to beam breakup. This paper presents the results of HOM studies for the prototype 7-cell cavity installed in a horizontal test cryomodule (HTC) from initial RF test, to being fully outfitted with side-mounted input coupler and beam line absorbers. We compare the simulated results of the optimized cavity geometry with measurements from all three HTC experiments.

Quench and High Field Q-SLOP Studies using a Single Cell Cavity with Artificial Pits

2465

Surface defects such as pits have been identified as some of the main sources of limitations of srf cavity performance. A single cell cavity was made with 30 artificial pits in the high magnetic field region to gain new insight in how pits limit the cavity performance. The test of the pit cavity showed clear evidence that the edges of two of the largest radius pits transitioned into the normal conducting state at field just below the quench field of the cavity, and that the quench was indeed induced by these two pits. Insights about quench and non-linear rf resistances will be presented.

Previously Cornell University developed Oscillating Superleak Transducers (OST) to locate quench spots on superconducting cavities in superfluid helium. This work builds upon this research and presents a technique to automatically visualize quench locations from OST data [1]. This system is now fully automated. The current system consists of between 8 and 16 OSTs, a high gain low noise preamplifier, and a data acquisition card that can log up to 16 simultaneously recorded inputs. The developed software allows computing quench locations on various cavity geometries, adjustment of the location of each OST and a choice between several quench finding algorithms. Observed results are in excellent agreement with optical inspection and temperature map data.
