  We present our parallel 3D3V particle-in-cell code for the numerical simulations of ultrarelativistic charged beams in supercolliders. In the algorithm we employ the three-dimensional set of Maxwell equations and the Vlasov-Liouville equation for the distribution function of beam particles in 6-dimensional phase space. The code allows performing numerical experiments with an arbitrary density distribution, beam crossing angle and relative offset. From the mathematical point of view the main problem of the three-dimensional modeling is the presence of the high relativistic factor values (the field gradients are high), the convergence conditions for PIC method and the necessary number of particles in 3D cell. Thus the parallel algorithm is based on the mixed Euler-Lagrangian decomposition in order to achieve good load balancing, and demonstrates the high scalability. With the advances of the code it will be possible to apply it for one-passage beam-beam simulations in linear colliders with supercritical parameters. We present the results of numerical simulations of colliding beams using dummy parameters and parameters close to the ones of the newest ILC project.

High energy, short-pulse modulators are being re-examined for the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) and numerous X-Band accelerator designs. At the very high voltages required for these systems, all of the existing designs are based on pulse transformers, which significantly limit their performance and efficiency. There is not a fully optimized, transformerless modulator design capable of meeting the demanding requirements of very high voltage pulses at short pulse widths. Under a U.S. Department of Energy grant, Diversified Technologies, Inc. (DTI) is developing a short pulse, solid-state Marx modulator. The modulator is designed for high efficiency in the 100 kV to 500 kV range, for currents up to 250 A, pulse lengths of 0.2 to 5.0 μs, and risetimes <300 ns. Key objectives of the development effort are modularity and scalability, combined with low cost and ease of manufacture. For short-pulse modulators, this Marx topology provides a means to achieve fast risetimes and flattop control that are not available with hard switch or transformer-coupled topologies. The system is in the final stages of testing prior to installation at Yale University.

  Spin polarized electron beam is essential for "International Linear Collider". In Nagoya University, transmission-type spin-polarized photocathodes have been developed, and the quantum efficiency of 0.5 % and the polarization of 90 % were achieved*,**. Recently, we succeeded in making the active layer several times thicker with keeping the spin polarization on the GaAs/GaAsP strain-compensated superlattice photocathode***. Increasing the thickness of the active layer is very advantageous for high quantum efficiency, but might be disadvantageous for pulse response. In order to investigate the pulse response, we have developed a pulse length measurement system by using an RF deflecting cavity. In the measurement, magnetic field induced on the beam axis kicks electron pulse transversely and the pulse length is projected to the transverse plane, which is measured by knife-edge method. The pump laser pulses are provided by a Ti:sapphire laser oscillator. By using a pulse stretcher, the pulse width of the pump laser can be changed in the range between 130 fs and 20 ps. In the poster session, we will describe the details of the measurement system and the most recent experimental results.

  Beam tuning in the beam delivery system (BDS) is one of the major challenges for the future linear colliders. Up to now single beam tuning has been performed, both in simulations and experiments at the Accelerator Test Facility (ATF). However, in future linear colliders, due to fast detuning of the final focus optics both beamlines will need to be tuned simultaneously. In this paper a first two-beam tuning study for the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) BDS is presented applying the usual toolbox of beam-based alignment (BBA) and sextupole knobs.

  The 42 km long CLIC Drive Beam Decelerator (DBD) will decelerate beams of electrons from 2.4 GeV to 240 MeV. ASTeC in collaboration with CERN has developed a novel type of tunable permanent magnet quadrupole for the DBD. Two versions of the design were produced, for the high-energy and low-energy ends of the DBD respectively. This paper outlines the design of the low-energy version, which has a tuning range of 3.5-43 T/m. A prototype was built at Daresbury Laboratory (DL) in 2013, and extensive magnetic measurements were carried out at DL.

  The requirements on the Final Focusing System (FFS) for a new linear collider has lead to lattice designs where chromaticity is corrected either locally or non-locally. Here, alternative proposals of lattice design are presented for the current CLIC 500GeV beam parameters, combining the local chromaticity correction on the vertical plane and non-local correction on the horizontal. The tight tolerance on phase advances and beta functions imposed to obtain -I transformation required to cancel the chromatic terms is relaxed by enlarging the system length and using a more general transformation definition, aiming to obtain better results in tuning simulations.

  Since 2009 the CERN Magnet Group (CERN-TE-MSC) started R&D activities in order to focalize the most challenging and interesting cases to be studied among the magnets needed for CLIC the Compact Linear Collider. In the last four years several theoretic studies, models and prototypes were realized mainly in two domains: magnets for the Modules, the modular elements that are composing the backbone of the two-beam linac structure of CLIC, and the Machine Detector Interface (MDI) including the Final Focus elements, and the anti-solenoid. In this paper we revise the status for the procured magnets. Among them the Drive Beam Quadrupoles, Main Beam Quadrupoles, Steering Correctors all challenging for the required compactness, performances and production size, and the QD0 final quadrupole and the close SD0 sextupole, challenging for the high performances required in terms of gradients and stability.

  Six UK institutes are engaged in a collaborative R&D programme with CERN aimed at demonstrating key aspects of technology feasibility for the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC). We give an overview and status of the R&D being done on: 1) Drive-beam components: quadrupole magnets and the beam phase feed-forward prototype. 2) Beam instrumentation: stripline and cavity beam position monitors, an electro-optical longitudinal bunch profile monitor, and laserwire and diffraction and transition radiation monitors for transverse beam-size determination. 3) Beam delivery system and machine-detector interface design, including beam feedback/control systems and crab cavity design and control. 4) RF structure design. In each case, where applicable, we report on the status of prototype systems and performance tests with beam at the CTF3, ATF2 and CesrTA test facilities, including plans for future experiments.

  With pinpoint accuracy, the next generation of Linear Collider such as CLIC will collide electron and positron beams at a centre of mass energy of 3 TeV with a desired peak luminosity of 2*1034 cm-2s−1. One of the many challenging features of CLIC is its ability to collide beams at the sub-nanometer scale at the Interaction Point (IP). Such a high level of accuracy could only be achieved by integrating Active Vibration Isolation system (AVI) upstream the collision to prevent the main source of vibration; Ground Motion (GM). Complementary control systems downstream the collision (Interaction Point FeedBack (IPFB), Orbit FeedBack(OFB)) allow low frequency vibration rejection. This paper focus on a dedicated AVI table designed for the last focusing quadrupole QD0 where the specifications are the most stringent. Combining FeedForward (FF) and FeedBack (FB) techniques, the prototype is able to reduce GM down to 0.6 nm RMS(4Hz) experimentally without load. These performances couldn’t be achieved without cutting edge-technology such as sub-nanometer piezo actuator, ultra-low noise accelerometer and seismometers and an accurate guidance system. The whole AVI system is described in detail.

  CERN is currently studying the feasibility of building a high energy e+ e linear collider: the CLIC (Compact LInear Collider). One of the engineering challenges is the pre-alignment precision and accuracy requirement on the alignment of the linac components. For example, the magnetic axis of a Drive Beam Quadrupole will need to be aligned within 20 um rms with respect to a straight reference line of alignment. The fiducialisation process which is the determination of the magnetic axis with respect to external alignment targets, that is part of this error budget, will have to be performed at an accuracy never reached before. This paper presents the strategy proposed for the fiducialisation of the Drive Beam quadrupole, based on a combination of CMM measurements, WPS measurements and Laser tracker measurements. The results obtained on a dedicated test bench will be described as well.

  Aligning accelerator components over 200m with 10 μm accuracy is a challenging task within the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) study. A solution based on laser beam in vacuum as straight line reference is proposed. The positions of the accelerator’s components are measured with respect to the laser beam by sensors made of camera/shutter assemblies. To validate these sensors, laser pointing stability has to be studied over 200m. We perform experiments in air and in vacuum in order to know how laser pointing stability varies with the distance of propagation and with the environment. The experiments show that the standard deviations of the laser spot coordinates increase with the distance of propagation. They also show that the standard deviations are much smaller in vacuum (8 μm at 35m) than in air (2000 μm at 200m). Our experiment validates the concept of laser beam in vacuum with camera/shutter assembly for micrometric positioning over 35m. It also gives an estimation of the achievable precision.

  Since several years CERN is studying the feasibility of building a high energy e+ e linear collider: the CLIC (Compact LInear Collider). The pre-alignment precision and accuracy requirement for the transverse positions of the linac components is typically 14 micrometers over a sliding window of 200m. One of the challenges is precise adjustment of Drive Beam quadrupole’s magnetic axis. It has to be done with micrometric resolution along 5 DOF in a common support’s coordinate system. This paper describes the design and the study of a solution based on flexural components in a type of “Stewart Platform” configuration. The engineering approach, the lessons learned (“know how”), the issues of adjustment solution and the mechanical components behaviors are presented.

  In August 2013, the Japanese ILC Site Evaluation Committee has recommended the Kitakami area in northern Japan as the technically preferred site for the International Linear Collider (ILC) in Japan. With this decision, the ILC planning has moved into a new stage where the Technical Design Report baseline design has to be adapted to the specific site, and refined in preparation for a possible construction project. Engineering data management provides the methods and supporting tools to create and maintain the design data throughout the entire life of the ILC project. The Management and integration of engineering data from the design teams around the globe that contribute to the ILC requires a carefully structured body of documentation, clearly defined processes including configuration control, and efficient vision sharing through 3D modelling.

In the facility, we have installed a deep-drawing machine, a half-cup trimming machine, an electron-beam welding machine, and a chemical etching room in one place. We started the studies on the fabrication of 9-cell cavity for International Linear Collier (ILC) using this facility. The studies are focusing on the cost reduction with keeping high performance of cavity, and the goal is the establishment of mass-production procedure for ILC. We already finished the fabrication of two 9-cell cavities in this facility. This article reports the current status of the studies.

Fermilab has built a cryomodule comprised of eight 1.3 GHz superconducting RF cavities for use in its Advanced Superconducting Test Accelerator (ASTA) facility. This cryomodule (RFCA002) was intended to achieve the International Linear Collider (ILC) “S1” goal of demonstrating an average accelerating gradient of 31.5 MV/m, and is the first of its kind built in the United States. The module has been cooled down and operated without beam at ASTA in order to assess its performance. The results from these tests are presented here.

  The drive-beam linac which is required for generation RF power at Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) has to accelerate an electron beam with 8.4 nC per bunch up to 2.4 GeV in almost fully loaded structures. The required beam stability in both transverse and longitudinal directions are of concern for such a high bunch charge. We present different bunch compressor designs for the Drive Beam and compare their performance including the effects beam energy and phase jitters.

  Tuning the CLIC Beam Delivery System (BDS), and in particular the final focus, is a challenging task. In simulations without misalignments, the goal is to reach 120~\% of the nominal luminosity target, in order to allow for 10~\% loss due to static imperfections, and another 10~\% loss from dynamic imperfections. Various approaches have been considered to correct the magnet misalignments, including 1-1 correction, dispersion free steering (DFS), and several minimization methods utilizing multipole movers. In this paper we report on the recent advancements towards a feasible tuning approach that reach the required luminosity target in a reasonable time frame.

  An updated design of a beam-driven Plasma Wake-Field Acceleration Linear Collider (PWFA-LC) covering a wide range of beam collision energy from Higgs factory to multi-TeV is presented. The large effective accelerating field on the order of 1 GV/m and high wall-plug to beam power transfer efficiency of the beam driven plasma technology in a continuous operation mode allows to extend linear colliders to unprecedented beam collision energies up to 10 TeV with reasonable facility extension and power consumption. An attractive scheme of an ILC energy upgrade using the PWFA technology in a pulsed mode is discussed. The major critical issues and the R&D to address their feasibility in dedicated test facilities like FACET and FACET2 are outlined, especially the beam quality preservation during acceleration and the positron acceleration. Finally, a tentative scenario of a series of staged facilities with increasing complexity starting with short term application at low energy is developed.
