WEPRI013 | Investigation of Cryomodules for the Mainz Energy-recovering Superconducting Accelerator MESA | cryomodule, linac, HOM, operation | 2505 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by the German Federal Ministery of Education and Research (BMBF) and German Research Foundation (DFG) under the Cluster of Excellence "PRISMA" For the multiturn accelerator MESA it is planned to employ superconducting technology for the main linac, which is supposed to provide an energy gain of 50 MeV per turn. As continuous wave operation is mandatory for the experiments, it is important to minimise the cryogenic losses, hence to find cavities and the corresponding cryomodule meeting the framework conditions for the accelerator. The findings and the current statuts will be reported. |

WEPRI076 | Higher Order Mode Damping in Superconducting Spoke Cavities | HOM, cavity, damping, superconductivity | 2669 |
|
|||
Parasitic higher order modes (HOMs) can be severely detrimental to the performance of superconducting cavities. For this reason, the mode spectrum and beam coupling strength must be examined in detail to determine which modes must be damped. One advantage of the spoke cavity geometry is that couplers can be placed on the outer body of the cavity rather than in the beam line space. We present an overview of the HOM properties of spoke cavities and methods for suppressing the most harmful ones. | |||

THPRI065 | Effects of Beam Loading and Higher-order Modes in RF Cavities for Muon Ionization Cooling | cavity, beam-loading, plasma, space-charge | 3921 |
|
|||
Envisioned muon ionization cooling channel is based on vaccum and/or gas-filled RF cavities of frequencies of 325 and 650 MHz. In particular, to meet the luminosity requirement for a muon collider, the muon beam intensity should be on the order of 1012 muons per bunch. In this high beam intensity, transient beam loading can significantly reduce the accelerating gradients and deteriorate the beam quality. We estimate this beam loading effect using an equivalent circuit model. For gas-filled cavity case, the beam loading is compared with plasma loading. We also investigate the excitation of higher-order modes and their effects on the performance of the cavity. | |||

THPRI112 | Basic Research on RF Absorbing Ceramics for Beam Line HOM Absorbers | HOM, damping, vacuum, linac | 4040 |
|
|||
Higher Order Mode (HOM) absorbers for future high current machines have been a challenging component for many years. Even though many different materials are commercially, none of them seems to fully qualify for accelerator applications. Some of them are brittle or chippy, others porous, have small bandwidth of absorption, a high dc resistivity leading to charge-up or are unreliable in terms of batch to batch variations. Alfred University and Cornell University have recently partnered in developing a dedicated absorber ceramic material that tries to overcome these limitations. We will report on results from small samples of different compositions we produced based on SiC, graphene and graphite. | |||
