  In this paper we give an analytical solution of TM0n mode for wakefields generated by a relativistic electron beam passing through plasma-filled capillary waveguides. The numerical solution shows that the fields of TM0n modes could not be ignored when the plasma wave length is comparable with the effective radius of the capillary tube, which means that the boundaries are not shielded completely by plasma. Numerical examples are given in several typical cases.

A tapered choke-mode structure for the main linac of Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) had been designed. Wakefield suppression of this structure fits the beam dynamic requirements. But it has a lower RF performance compared to the baseline design of CLIC main linac. A genetic algorithm is used in the procedure to find the optimum solution. A new choke-mode structure with 24 regular cells working on 100MV/m has been design, which fits beam dynamic constraints and has higher RF efficiency and lower surface field.

  An X-band (11.7GHz) power extractor has been developed for RF power generation at Argonne Wakefield Accelerator (AWA). The structure is a 2pi/3-mode disk-loaded structure with group velocity of 22% of the speed of light and a total length of about 300mm. It is build with copper disks brazed together. This note presents the design and the fabrication of this structure, as well as the RF measurement results.

  A radial line experiment is proposed to test the SiC load disks of the choke-mode structure. However, the general calibration cannot work out in this situation due to lack of matched load. A new calibration method named multi-offset short calibration is proposed. The principles of the method and the calibration steps involved are presented and the results of actual experimentation are used to validate the method. The results show multi-offset short calibration is a feasible method and that this method can provide a viable calibration scheme for radial line measurements.

  The target in electron linear accelerator plays an important role in the production of photon. Different materials and thickness of target have influence on dose rate. For 6MeV electron beam, this study gives the thickness of target for several materials in which the dose rate can be higher and drain electron can be lower. Then a X-ray target had been designed for 6MeV electron linac by FLUKA simulations. It can deliver 1000 cGy/min at 1 meter in front of the target if providing 6 MeV electron beam with 100uA current, which can achieve high-dose rate radiotherapy.

  A C-band 6MeV standing-wave bi-periodic on-axis coupled linear accelerator has been developed at the accelerator laboratory of Tsinghua University [1,2]. In the recent high power RF test, the capture ratio, the energy spectrum, the spot size and the dose rate of this accelerator have been measured. With a 2.07-MW input power, the peak current is 130mA and the output spot root-mean-square diameter is about 0.8mm. The output kinetic energy is 6.0MeV with a spectrum FWHM of 7.5%. In this paper, the setup and detailed results of the high power RF test are presented.
