WEPWO056 | Update of the Mechanical Design of the 650 MHZ β=0.9 Cavities for Project X | 2432 |
|
||
Five-cell elliptical 650 MHz β=0.9 cavities to accelerate 1 mA of average H− beam current in the range 520-3000 MeV of the Project X Linac are currently planned. We will present the results of optimization of mechanical design of cavities with their Helium Vessel. We discuss the efforts to optimize the mechanical stability of the cavity versus the Helium bath pressure fluctuations, cavity tunability. We present also modal and thermal analysis; discuss tuner options and other issues. | ||
WEPWO057 | Update of SSR2 Cavities Design for Project X and RISP | 2435 |
|

Funding: Operated by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy. Single spoke resonators SSR2 (f=325 MHz) are under development at Fermilab. These cavities can meet requirements of Project X (FNAL) and RISP (Korea). The initial design of SSR2 cavities has been modified and optimized in order to satisfy the necessities of both projects. This paper will discuss the RF optimization for a single spoke resonator with a 50 mm beam pipe aperture and an optimal beta of 0.51. Further, the approach to the mechanical design of the cavity will be presented together with the proposed helium vessel. The latter is intended to guarantee a low He pressure sensitivity df/dp of the entire jacketed SSR2 and actively control the microphonics. |

WEPWO058 | Recent Progress at Fermilab Controlling Lorentz Force Detuning and Microphonics in Superconducting Cavities | 2438 |
|
||
Funding: Work is supported by U.S. Department of Energy SRF cavities are susceptible to detuning by mechanical deformations induced by the Lorentz force and microphonics. Providing the RF overhead required to maintain the accelerating gradient in detuned cavities can increase both the capital and operating costs of superconducting accelerators. Recent work at Fermilab has shown that active vibration control using a piezo actuator can reduce both Lorentz Force detuning and microphonics to the point where negligible RF overhead is required to maintain the accelerating gradient. |
