	Funding: This work was carried out at Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contracts No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 and at Stony Brook University under grant DE-SC0005713 with the U.S. DOE. A new GPU based 3D electron tracking code is developed at BNL and benchmarked with both popular existing parallel tracking code and experimental results. The code takes advantage of massive concurrency of GPU cards to track electrons under RF field in 3D Tetrahedron meshed structures. Approximately ten times of FLOPS can be achieved by utilizing GPUs compare to CPUs with same level of power consumption. Different boundary materials can be specified and the 3D EM field can be imported from the result of Omega3P calculation. CUDA_OpenGL interop was implemented so that the emerging of multipactors can be monitored in real time while the simulation is undergoing. Code also has GPU farm version that can run on multiple GPUs to further increase the turnover of multipacting simulation.

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.

Used NERSC resources by US DOE contract No.DE-AC02-05CH11231. The Lorentz detuning is the resonant frequency change in an RF cavity due to the radiation pressure on the cavity walls. We present benchmarking studies of Lorentz detuning calculations for a Double-Quarter Wave Crab Cavity (DQWCC) using the codes ACE3P. The results are compared with the Lorentz detuning measurements performed during the cold tests of the Proof-of-Principle DQWCC at BNL.

FPC and HOM couplers are located in high magnetic field region and have a hook shape. The FPC will be made in copper while HOM and pickup are in niobium. This paper explains the material choice for the FPC, HOM and pickup couplers given the calculated power dissipation for fundamental and selected high order modes. It also describes the envisaged cooling system and corresponding thermal distribution for each coupler.

THPB063	BNL 56 MHz HOM Damper Fabrication at JLab	1262
	N.A. Huque, W.A. Clemens, E. Daly JLab, Newport News, Virginia, USA S. Bellavia, G.T. McIntyre, S.K. Seberg, Q. Wu BNL, Upton, Long Island, New York, USA
	The Higher-Order Mode (HOM) Dampers for the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider’s (RHIC) 56 MHz cavity at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) are currently being fabricated at JLab. The coaxial damper is primarily constructed with high RRR niobium, with a combination of niobium and sapphire rings as the filter assembly. Several design changes have been made with respect to the performance of a prototype damper – also fabricated at JLab – which was found to quench at low power. The production dampers are being tuned and tested in the JLab vertical test area (VTA) prior to delivery. Two HOM dampers will be delivered to BNL; they are to be used in the RHIC in November, 2015. This paper outlines the challenges faced in the fabrication and tuning process.

	The High-Luminosity upgrade for the LHC relies on a set of RF Crab Cavities for reaching its goals. Two parallel concepts, the Double Quarter Wave (DQW) and the RF Dipole (RFD), are going through a comprehensive design process along with preparation of fabrication in view of extensive tests with beam in SPS. High Order Modes (HOM) couplers are critical in providing damping in RF cavities for operation in accelerators. HOM prototyping and fabrication have recently started at CERN. In this paper, an overview of the final shape is provided along with an insight in the mechanical and thermal analyses performed to validate the design of these critical components. Emphasis is also given to test campaigns, material selection, prototyping and initial fabrication that are aimed at fulfilling the highly demanding tolerances of the couplers.

	The HL-LHC project aims at increasing the LHC luminosity by a factor 10 beyond the design value. The installation of a set of RF Crab Cavities to increase bunch crossing angle is one of the key upgrades of the program. Two concepts, Double Quarter Wave (DQW) and RF Dipole (RFD) have been proposed and are being produced in parallel for test in the SPS beam before the next long shutdown of CERN accelerator’s complex. In the retained concept, two cavities are hosted in one single cryomodule, providing thermal insulation and interfacing with RF coupling, tuning, cryogenics and beam vacuum. This paper overviews the main design choices for the cryomodule and its different components, which have the goal of optimizing the structural, thermal and electro-magnetic behavior of the system, while respecting the existing constraints in terms of integration in the accelerator environment. Prototyping and testing of the most critical components, manufacturing, preparation and installation strategies are also described.
