Funding: Work is supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the US DOE. A Quarter-Wave Resonator (QWR) type SRF gun operating at 112 MHz will be used for Coherent Electron Cooling Proof of Principle (CeC PoP) system under development for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The CeC PoP experiment will demonstrate the ability of relativistic electrons to cool a single bunch of heavy ions in RHIC. This cavity is designed to generate a 2 MeV, high charge (several nC), low repetition rate (78 kHz) electron beam using a new fundamental power coupler (FPC) design approach. Structural and thermal analysis, using ANSYS were performed to confirm the FPC structural stability and to calculate the deflection due to heat load from RF power generation. This paper provides an overview of the design, structural and thermal analysis, test results, and FPC tuning drive system for the 112 MHz gun. |
