Higher order mode (HOM) beam position monitors (BPM) are being developed for the 3.9GHz third harmonic superconducting accelerating cavities at FLASH. The transverse beam position in a cavity can be determined utilizing beam-excited HOMs based on dipole components. The existing couplers used for HOM suppression provide the necessary signals. The diagnostics principle is similar to a cavity BPM, but requires no additional vacuum instruments on the linac. The challenges lie in the dense HOM spectrum arising from couplings of the majority HOMs amongst the four cavities in the cryo-module. HOMs with particularly promising diagnostics features were evaluated using various devices with various analysis methods. After careful theoretical and experimental assessment of HOMs, multi-cavity modes at ~5GHz were chosen to provide a global position over the complete module with superior resolution (~20μm) while trapped modes at ~9GHz provide local position in each cavity with comparable resolution (~50μm). A similar HOM-BPM system is planned for the European XFEL 3.9GHz module with 8 cavities. This paper reviews both the current status and the future prospects of HOM-BPMs in 3.9GHz cavities.

MOPWO008	Eigenmode Computation for Elliptical Cavities Subject to Geometric Variation using Perturbative Methods	900

	Funding: Work supported by Federal Ministry for Research and Education BMBF under contracts 05H09HR5 and 05K10H. Parametric studies of geometric variations are an essential part of the performance optimization and error estimation in the design of accelerator cavities. Using common eigenmode solvers the analysis of intentional and undesired geometric perturbations tend to be very extensive since any geometric variation involves an entire eigenmode recomputation. Perturbative methods constitute an efficient alternative for the computation of a multitude of moderately varying geometries. They require a common eigenmode computation of solely one (so called unperturbed) geometry and allow for deriving the eigenmodes of similar but modified (so called perturbed) geometries from these unperturbed eigenmodes. In [],[] the practicability of perturbative methods was already proven by means of simple cavity geometries. In this paper we investigate the applicability and efficiency for practically relevant cavities. For this, basic geometric parameters of elliptical cavities are varied and the respective eigenmodes are computed by using perturbative as well as common methods. The accuracy of the results and the computational effort of the different methods are compared. K. Brackebusch, H.-W. Glock, U. van Rienen, WEPPC096, IPAC 2011 **K.

	Funding: Supported by BMBF under contract number 05K10HRC Energy Recovery Linacs (ERLs) are the most promising candidates for next-generation light sources now under active development. An optimal performance of these machines requires the preservation of the high beam brightness generated in the injector. For this, the impact of the ionized residual gas on the beam has to be avoided as it causes instabilities and emittance growth. Typical measures to reduce the effect of ion clouds are clearing electrodes and clearing gaps in the bunch train. In this paper, we present numerical studies of the impact of ion clouds on the electron bunch train. The simulations are performed with the software package MOEVE PIC Tracking developed at Rostock University. ’The model for the bunch and the ion cloud takes into account a distribution of macro particles. The interaction of the bunch with the ion cloud is computed with a 3D space charge model. Hence, particle tracking allows for detailed studies of bunch characteristics such as the emittance. The presented numerical investigations take into account the parameters of the ERL BERLinPro with the objective to deduce appropriate measures for the design and operation of BERLinPro.
