WEPAC11 | Cornell's Main Linac Cryo-module Prototype | 811 |
|
||
Funding: Supported by NSF award DMR-0807731 In preparation to built an energy-recovery linac (ERL) based synchrotron-light facility at Cornell University which can provide greatly improved X-ray beams due to the high electron-beam quality that is available from a linac, a phase 1 R&D program was launched, adressing critical challenges in the design. One of them being a full linac cryo-module, housing 6 superconducting cavities (operated at 1.8 K in cw mode), 7 HOM absorbers and 1 magnet/ BPM section. The final design will be presented and a report on the fabrication status that started in late 2012 will be given |

Funding: NSF Grants: NSF DMR-0807731 and NSF PHY-1002467 Energy Recovery Linacs (ERLs) require strong damping of higher-order modes in main linac cavities to avoid beam loss from beam break-up effects. In addition, the cavities need to have very high intrinsic quality factors to minimize the size of cryogenic plants in CW cavity operation. We present world record results for a fully equipped multicell cavity in a cryomodule, reaching intrinsic quality factors at operating accelerating field of Q0(E =16.2 MV/m, 1.8~K) > 6.0\ee10 and Q0(E =16.2 MV/m, 1.6~K) = 1.0\ee{11}, corresponding to a residual surface resistance of 1.1~nΩ. |
