TI - Study and Comparison of Mode Damping Strategies for the UA9 Cherenkov Detector Tank J2 - Proc. of IPAC2015, Richmond, VA, USA, May 3-8, 2015 C1 - Richmond, VA, USA T2 - International Particle Accelerator Conference T3 - 6 LA - english AB - In the framework of the UA9 experiment, the Cherenkov detector is useful to measure the amount of particles deflected by a bent crystal, proving the crystal collimation principle. The tank used to host this device is taken as a case study for an in-depth analysis of different damping strategies for electromagnetic modes which otherwise would give rise to important beam-coupling impedance contributions. Such strategies involve the use of ferrite, damping resistors and a mode-coupler, a solution which intercepts the modes inside the cavity but damps the related power outside the vacuum tank (potentially avoiding heating). Such solutions are discussed through experimental measurements and the relative quality factor is taken as a figure of merit.
