WEBA07 | Beam Commissioning of the 56 MHz QW Cavity in RHIC | 982 |
|

Funding: This work was supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. DOE. A 56 MHz superconducting RF cavity has been designed, fabricated and installed in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The cavity operates at 4.4 K with a “quiet helium source” to isolate the cavity from environmental acoustic noise. The cavity is a beam driven quarter wave resonator. It is detuned and damped during injection and acceleration cycles and is brought to operation only at store energy. We have observed clear luminosity increase and bunch length reduction in the first operation of the cavity with Au + Au and Au + He3 collisions. The cavity voltage was limited by quenching in the Higher Order Mode coupler. This paper also discusses the cavity beam experiments with no higher order mode coupler in p + p and p + Au RHIC operation. |

THAA03 | SRF Gun at BNL: First Beam and Other Commissioning Results | 1001 |
|
||
The talk shall cover two SRF photoemission electron guns under commissioning at BNL: a 704 MHz elliptical ERL gun and a 112 MHz quarter-wave gun for coherent electron cooling experiment. In particular, the speaker shall report on generating first photoemission beam current from the 704 MHz SRF gun, multipacting issues in the SRF guns, photocathode behavior as well as other commissioning experiences and results. | ||

THPB058 | Commissioning of the 112 MHz SRF Gun | 1240 |
|
||
Funding: Work is supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the US DOE. A 112 MHz superconducting RF photoemission gun was designed, fabricated and installed in RHIC for the Coherent electron Cooling Proof-of-Principle (CeC PoP) experiment at BNL. The gun was commissioned first without beam. This was followed by generating the first photoemission beam from a multi-alkali cathode. The paper presents the commissioning results. |
