|
|||
Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science under Cooperative Agreement DE-SC0000661 The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is based upon a high power heavy ion driver linac under construction at Michigan State University under a cooperative agreement with the US DOE. The construction of conventional facilities already started in the summer, 2013, and the accelerator production began from the summer, 2014. FRIB will accelerate all the stable ion beams from proton to uranium beyond a beam energy of 200 MeV/u and up to a beam power of 400 kW to produce a great number of various rare isotopes using SRF linac. The FRIB SRF driver linac makes use of four kinds of SRF structures. Totally 332 two gap cavities and 48 cryomodules are needed. All SRF hardware components have been validated and are now moving to production. The SRF infrastructure also has been constructed in MSU campus. This talk will present FRIB project and challenges regarding SRF technologies. The status of SRF linac hardware validation and their production, SRF infrastructure status and plan shall be addressed. The information that can be relevant for future large scale proton/ion SRF linacs will also be provided. |

MOAA02 | Recent Progress with EU-XFEL | cavity, linac, operation, cryogenics | 14 |
|
|||
The superconducting accelerator of the European XFEL consists of the injector part and the main linac. The injector includes one 1.3 GHz accelerator module and one 3.9 GHz third-harmonic module, while the main linac will consist of 100 accelerator modules, operating at an average design gradient of 23.6 MV/m. The fabrication and surface treatment by industry as well as RF acceptance tests of the required 808 superconducting 1.3 GHz cavities are close to an end by the time of SRF15. The accelerator module assembly, testing and installation in the tunnel is in full swing. First steps of commissioning have been made. The status and results of cavity and module RF tests at 1.3 GHz and 3.9 GHz are presented. | |||

MOPB028 | Preservation of Very High Quality Factors of 1.3 GHz Nine Cell Cavities From Bare Vertical Test to Dressed Horizontal Test | cavity, factory, shielding, HOM | 149 |
|
|||
In this contribution we will report quality factor evolution of several different nine cell N doped cavities with very high Q. The evolution of the quality factor will be reported from bare to dressed in vertical test to dressed in horizontal test with unity coupling to dressed in horizontal test and CM-like environment/configuration (with RF ancillaries). Cooling studies and optimal cooling regimes will be discussed for both vertical and horizontal tests and comparisons will be drawn also for different styles titanium vessels. Studies of sensitivities to magnetic field in final horizontal configuration have been performed by applying a field around the dressed cavity and varying the cooling; parameters required for a very good flux expulsion will be presented. | |||

MOPB033 | LCLS-II SRF Cavity Processing Protocol Development and Baseline Cavity Performance Demonstration | cavity, SRF, linac, vacuum | 159 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported, in part, by the US DOE and the LCLS-II Project under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177 and DE-AC02-76SF00515. The ”Linac Coherent Light Source-II” Project will construct a 4 GeV CW superconducting RF linac in the first kilometer of the existing SLAC linac tunnel. The baseline design calls for 280 1.3 GHz nine-cell cavities with an average intrinsic quality factor Q0 of 2.7·1010 at 2K and 16 MV/m accelerating gradient. The LCLS-II high Q0 cavity treatment protocol utilizes the reduction in BCS surface resistance by nitrogen doping of the RF surface layer, which was discovered originally at FNAL. Cornell University, FNAL, and TJNAF conducted a joint high Q0 R&D program with the goal of (a) exploring the robustness of the N-doping technique and establishing the LCLS-II cavity high Q0 processing protocol suitable for production use, and (b) demonstrating that this process can reliably achieve LCLS-II cavity specification in a production acceptance testing setting. In this paper we describe the LCLS-II cavity protocol and analyze combined cavity performance data from both vertical and horizontal testing at the three partner labs, which clearly shows that LCLS-II specifications were met, and thus demonstrates readiness for LCLS-II cavity production. |

MOPB035 | Nature and Implication of Found Actual Particulates on the Inner Surface of Cavities in a Full-Scale Cryomodule Previously Operated With Beams | cavity, ion, vacuum, operation | 164 |
|
|||
Field emission in an SRF cavity is often the result of small foreign particulates lodging on the cavity inner surface. To avoid these particulate field emitters, careful cleaning and handling of individual cavities and clean room assembly of cavity strings are common practice. Despite these elaborate processes, some particulates persist to stay on the final surface of a beam-ready cavity. Moreover, as will be shown in this contribution, new particulates accumulate after a cryomodule is placed in the accelerator tunnel. The nature of these accumulated particulates on the inner surface of a beam-accelerating cavity is largely unknown for two reasons: (1) lack of access to such surfaces; (2) lack of a workable procedure for investigation without destroying the cavity. In this contribution, we report the first study on found actual particulates on the inner surface of 5-cell CEBAF cavities in a full-scale cryomodule previously operated with beam. The nature of the studied particulates is presented. The implication of the findings will be discussed in view of reliable and efficient operation of CEBAF and future large-scale SRF accelerators. | |||

Initial vertical RF test results and quench studies for six of the eight undressed 9 cell cavities slated for use in the Jefferson laboratory LCLS-II prototype cryomodule were presented at IPAC2015*. For the final string 2 more cavities AES029 and AES030 (work done at Cornell) are being processed and tested for qualification before helium vessel welding. In addition, AES034 (initial R&D treatment) is being reworked with the current production protocol after a surface reset to improve the overall performance. After final qualification all 8 cavities will be welded into helium vessels and equipped with HOM couplers. In this paper we will present the final undressed and dressed vertical RF data comparing the changes in the surface resistance before their installation in the cryomodule string. *A.D.

MOPB041 | Cryomodule Testing of Nitrogen-Doped Cavities | cavity, HOM, SRF, linac | 182 |
|
|||
Funding: DOE and the LCLS-II High Q Project The Linac Coherent Light Source-II (LCLS-II) is a new FEL x-ray source that is planned to be constructed in the existing SLAC tunnel. In order to meet the required high Q0 specification of 2.7x1010 at 2 K and 16 MV/m, nitrogen-doping has been proposed as a preparation method for the SRF cavities in the linac. In order to test the feasibility of these goals, four nitrogen-doped cavities have been tested at Cornell in the Horizontal Test Cryomodule (HTC) in five separate tests. The first three tests consisted of cavities assembled in the HTC with high Q input coupler. The fourth test used the same cavity as the third but with the prototype high power LCLS-II coupler installed. Finally, the fifth test used a high power LCLS-II coupler, cavity tuner, and HOM antennas. Here we report on the results from these tests along with a systematic analysis of change in performance due to the various steps in preparing and assembling LCLS-II cavities for cryomodule operation. These results represent one of the final steps to demonstrate readiness for full prototype cryomodule assembly for LCLS-II. |

MOPB061 | Suppression of Upstream Field Emission in RF Accelerators | electron, cavity, SRF, site | 246 |
|
|||
Funding: Authored by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177 So-called electron loading is the primary cause for cavity performance limitations in modern RF accelerating cavities. In superconducting RF cavities in particular, the onset of parasitic electron effects may start at field levels as low as a few MV/m. Electron loading can be attributed to mainly three phenomena: field emission, multiple impact electron amplification, and RF electrical breakdown. Field emission has been a persistent issue despite advances in SRF technology, whereas RF electrical breakdown and multipacting can be controlled by appropriate cavity design choices. Field emission becomes a major concern when the electrons emitted are captured by the accelerating RF field and directed along the beam axis through a series of cavities or even entire cryomodules. Consequently, electrons can accumulate energy comparable to that of the main beam over similar distances. This can represent a considerable dark current, which can travel downstream or upstream depending on the field-emitting site of origin. In this paper, a method is presented that can significantly suppress the upstream field emission by design. |

MOPB063 | Design of the Superconducting LINAC for SARAF | cavity, solenoid, cryogenics, linac | 250 |
|
|||
CEA is committed to delivering a Medium Energy Beam Transfer line and a superconducting linac (SCL) for SARAF accelerator in order to accelerate 5mA beam of either protons from 1.3 MeV to 35 MeV or deuterons from 2.6 MeV to 40.1 MeV. The SCL consists 4 cryomodules equipped with warm diagnostics. The first two identical cryomodules host 6 half-wave resonator (HWR) low beta cavities (β = 0.091), 176 MHz. As the last two identical welcome 7 HWR high-beta cavities (β = 0.181), 176 MHz. The beam is focused through the superconducting solenoids located between cavities housing steering coils. A Beam Position Monitor is placed upstream each solenoid. A diagnostic box containing a beam profiler, a bunch length monitor and a vacuum pump will be inserted between 2 consecutive cryomodules. The HWR cavities, the solenoid package and the cryomodules are being designed. These studies will be presented in this poster. | |||

MOPB069 | Superconducting Linac Upgrade Plan for the Second Target Station Project at SNS | cavity, linac, HOM, accelerating-gradient | 268 |
|
|||
Funding: This work was supported by SNS through UT-Battelle, LLC, under contract DE-AC05-00OR22725 for the U.S. DOE. The beam power of the Linac for the Second Target Station (STS) at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) will be doubled to 2.8 MW. For the energy upgrade seven additional cryomodules will be installed in the reserved space at the end of the linac tunnel to produce the linac output energy of 1.3 GeV. The cryomodules for STS will have some changes that do not require changes of overall layout based on the lessons learned from operational experience over the last 10 years and the high beta spare cryomodule developed in house. The average macro-pulse beam current for the STS will be 38 mA that is about 40 % increase from that for the present 1.4 MW operation. Plans for the existing cryomodules to support higher beam current for the STS is also presented in this paper. |

MOPB071 | Technology Readiness Levels Applied to Current SRF Accelerator Technology for ADS | SRF, proton, cavity, TRIUMF | 276 |
|
|||
Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS) are comprised of high power accelerators supplying a proton beam to a reactor vessel. The reactor vessel could contain fuels such as used uranium nuclear fuels or Thorium. The proton beam will be used to produce Neutrons by spallation in the reactor vessel. Technology readiness levels (TRL’s) can be used to chart technology status with respect to end goal and as such can be used to outline a road map to complete an ADS system. TRL1 defines basic principles observed and reported, whereas TRL9 is defined as system ready for full scale deployment. SRF technology when applied to ADS reflects a mix of TRL levels since worldwide many SRF Accelerators are in operation. The paper will identify the building blocks of an ADS accelerator and analyze each for technical readiness for industrial scale deployment. The integrated ADS structure is far more complex than the individual systems, but the use of proven sub-systems allows to build SRF accelerators that could deliver the beam required. An analysis of the technical readiness of SRF technology for ADS will be presented. | |||

MOPB076 | Horizontal RF Test of a Fully Equipped 3.9 GHz Cavity for the European XFEL in the DESY AMTF | cavity, HOM, operation, controls | 301 |
|
|||
In order to validate the cavity package concept before the module preparation for the European XFEL Injector, one 3.9 GHz cavity, complete with magnetic shielding, power coupler and frequency tuner was tested in a specially designed single cavity cryomodule in one of the caves of the DESY Accelerator Module Test Facility (AMTF). The cavity was tested in high power pulsed operation up to the quench limit of 24 MV/m, above the vertical test qualifications and all subsystems under test (coupler, tuner, waveguide tuners, LLRF system) were qualified to design performances. | |||

The European X-ray Free Electron Laser is under construction at DESY, Hamburg. During preparation for tunnel installation 100 Cryomodules are tested in a dedicated facility on the DESY campus. Up to now around 50 cryomodules have been measured at 2K. This paper describes the current status of the measurements, especially single cavity limitations. In addition we present a comparison between the vertical test results of the individual cavities and the corresponding performance measurements of the cavities once assembled into the accelerator string inside the cryomodule. | |||

MOPB086 | Update and Status of Vertical Test Results of the European XFEL Series Cavities | cavity, status, linac, niobium | 337 |
|
|||
The series production by two industrial vendors of the 800 1.3-GHz superconducting cavities for the European XFEL has been on-going since the beginning of 2013 and will conclude towards the end of this year. As of publication some 740 cavities (~93%) have been produced at an average rate of 6 cavities per week. As part of the acceptance testing, all cavities have undergone at least one vertical RF test at 2K at the AMTF facility at DESY. The acceptance criterion for module assembly is based on the concept of a “usable gradient”, which is defined as the maximum field taking into account Q0 performance and allowed thresholds for field emission, as well as breakdown limits. Approximate 20% of the cavities have undergone further surface treatment in the DESY infrastructure to improve their usable gradient performance. In this paper we present the performance statistics of the vertical test results, as well as an analysis of the limiting criteria for the usable gradient, and finally the impact of the surface retreatment on both usable gradient and Q0. | |||

MOPB088 | HOM Measurements on the ARIEL eLINAC Cryomodules | HOM, cavity, simulation, linac | 347 |
|
|||
The ARIEL eLINAC is a 50 MeV, 10 mA electron LINAC designed for the creation of rare isotopes via photo-fission. Future upgrade plans include the addition of a recirculating beam line to allow for either further energy increase of the beam beyond 50 MeV or to operate a free electron laser in an energy recovery mode. For both recirculating LINAC and ERL the higher order modes (HOM) have to be sufficiently suppressed to prevent beam-break-up. The design of the 1.3 GHz nine-cell cavity incorporated this requirement by including beam line absorbers on both ends of each cavity and an asymmetric beam pipe configuration on the cavity to allow trapped modes to propagate to the beam line absorbers. Measurements of the higher order modes on the completed injector cryomodule and the first cavity in the accelerating cryomodules will be shown and compared to simulations. | |||

MOPB112 | SRF Quality Assurance Studies and Their Application to Cryomodule Repairs at SNS | cavity, vacuum, HOM, hardware | 428 |
|
|||
Funding: This work was supported by SNS through UT-Battelle, LLC, under contract DE-AC05-00OR22725 for the U.S. DOE. Many of the SRF activities involve interactions to cavities which presents risk for particulate contamination to RF surfaces. In order to understand and reduce contamination in cavities during cleaning, vacuum pumping and purging, and in-situ cryomodule repairs, a Quality Assurance (QA) studies were initiated to evaluate these activities and improve them where possible. This paper covers the results of investigations on the effectiveness of the SNS ultrasonic cleaning systems, particulate control during pumping and purging, procedure development for in-situ cryomodule repairs, the application of these studies to the repair of a linac cryomodule, and discussion of further improvement in these areas. |

MOPB118 | Cleanliness and Vacuum Acceptance Tests for the UHV Cavity String of the XFEL Linac | cavity, vacuum, operation, controls | 452 |
|
|||
The main linac of the European XFEL will consist of 100 accelerator modules, i.e. 800 superconducting accelerator cavities operated at a design gradient of 23.6MV/m. In this context CEA-Saclay built an assembly facility designed to produce one module per week, ready to be tested at DESY. The facility overcame the foreseen production rate. We would like to highlight and discuss the critical fields: cleanliness and vacuum. A new assembly method to protect final assembly against particulates contamination has been implemented on the production line. Impact on cryomodule RF test is presented. Particle transport measurements on components used for the European XFEL accelerator module are presented. The results indicate that the nominal operation of the automated pumping and venting units will not lead to particle transport. Vacuum acceptance tests are of major interest: leak tests and residual gas analysis (RGA) are used to control the absence of air leak and contamination. The RGA specifications have been slightly relaxed to ensure the production rate. | |||

TUBA01 | Status of the SRF Systems at HIE-ISOLDE | cavity, vacuum, cryogenics, solenoid | 481 |
|
|||
The HIE-ISOLDE project has been approved by CERN in 2009 and gained momentum after 2011. The final energy goal of the upgrade is to boost the radioactive beams of REX-ISOLDE from the present 3 MeV/u up to 10 MeV/u for A/q up to 4.5. This is to be achieved by means of a new superconducting linac, operating at 101.28 MHz and 4.5 K with independently phased quarter wave resonators (QWR). The QWRs are based on the Nb sputtering on copper technology, pioneered at CERN and developed at INFN-LNL for this cavity shape. Transverse focusing is provided by Nb-Ti superconducting solenoids. The cryomodules hosting the active elements are of the common vacuum type. In this contribution we will report on the recent advancements of the HIE-ISOLDE linac technical systems involving SRF technology. The paper is focused on the cavity production, on the experience with the assembly of the first cryomodule (CM1), and on the results of the first hardware commissioning campaign. | |||

TUPB006 | The CLS SRF Cryogenic System Upgrade | cavity, storage-ring, SRF, cryogenics | 539 |
|
|||
The Canadian Light Source currently makes use of a 500 MHz CESR-B type SRF cavity in its storage ring. While the performance of this cavity has generally been good, the reliability of the cryostat and cryogenic system has suffered a few setbacks over the 10 years of operation. The position of CLS as a user facility requires reliable beam to be consistently delivered. For this reason CLS is undertaking an upgrade project to improve system reliability and reduce downtime due to planned and unplanned maintenance. The upgrade is to include a redundant helium compressor, and new cryogenic infrastructure. In addition, the spare CESR-B cryomodule will be installed and operating in the storage ring. This talk reviews the problems with the current system to date, and discusses the proposals for the upgrade of the system. | |||

TUPB012 | LCLS-II High Power RF System Overview and Progress | linac, LLRF, gun, radiation | 562 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by DoE, Contract No. DE-AC02-76SF00515 A second X-ray free electron laser facility, LCLS-II, will be constructed at SLAC. LCLS-II is based on a 1.3 GHz, 4 GeV, continuous-wave (CW) superconducting linear accelerator, to be installed in the first kilometer of the SLAC tunnel. Multiple types of high power RF (HPRF) sources will be used to power different systems on LCLS II. The main 1.3 GHz linac will be powered by 280 1.3 GHz, 3.8 kW solid state amplifier (SSA) sources. The normal conducting buncher in the injector will use four more such SSAs. Two 185.7 MHz, 60 kW sources will power the photocathode dual-feed RF gun. A third harmonic linac section, included for linearizing the bunch energy spread before the first bunch compressor, will require sixteen 3.9 GHz sources at about 1 kW CW. A diagnostic line at 94 MeV, for tuning and characterizing the beam prior to acceleration through the rest of the linac, will contain an S-band transverse deflection cavity (TCAV) to time-resolve the energy spread of the beam. A 2.856 GHZ model 5045 pulsed klystron already existing at SLAC will be used to power the TCAV. A description and an update on all the HPRF sources of LCLS-II and their implementation is the subject of this paper |

TUPB016 | Progress on Superconducting Linac for the RAON Heavy Ion Accelerator | cavity, linac, ion, electron | 578 |
|
|||
The RISP (Rare Isotope Science Project) has been proposed as a multi-purpose accelerator facility for providing beams of exotic rare isotopes of various energies. It can deliver ions from proton to uranium. Proton and uranium ions are accelerated upto 600 MeV and 200 MeV/u respectively. The facility consists of three superconducting linacs of which superconducting cavities are independently phased. Requirement of the linac design is especially high for acceleration of multiple charge beams. In this paper, we present the RISP linac design, the prototyping of superconducting cavity and cryomodule. | |||

TUPB017 | 1.3 GHz SRF Technology R&D Progress of IHEP | cavity, vacuum, cryogenics, HOM | 581 |
|
|||
IHEP started the 1.3GHz SRF technology R&D in 2006 and recently enters the stage of integration and industrialization. After successfully making several single cell and 9-cell cavities of different shape and material, we designed and assembled a short cryomodule containing one large grain low loss shape 9-cell cavity with an input coupler and a tuner etc. This module will perform horizontal test in 2016 with the newly commissioned 1.3GHz 5MW klystron and the 2K cryogenic system. Beam test with a DC photocathode gun is also foreseen in the near future. We report here the problems, key findings and improvements in cavity dressing, clean room assembly, cryomodule assembly and the liquid nitrogen cool down test. A fine grain TESLA 9-cell cavity is also under fabrication in a company as the industrialization study. | |||

TUPB021 | Measurement of the Cavity Performances of Compact ERL Main Linac Cryomodule During Beam Operation | operation, cavity, linac, radiation | 592 |
|
|||
We developed ERL main linac cryomodule for Compact ERL (cERL) in KEK. The module consists of two 9-cell 1.3 GHz superconducting cavities, two 20 kW high power coupler, two mechanical tuner and three HOM dampers. After construction of cERL recirculation loop, beam operation was started in 2013 Dec. First electron beam of 20 MeV successfully passed the main linac cavities. After adjusting beam optics, energy recovery operation was achieved. Main linac cavity was enough stable for ERL beam operation with digital LLRF system and energy recovery was successfully done with CW 80 uA beam. However, field emission was a problem for long term operation. In this paper, we express the measurement of the cavity performances of long term beam operation. | |||

TUPB074 | High-Vacuum Simulations and Measurements on the SSR1 Cryomodule Beam-Line | vacuum, cavity, simulation, niobium | 754 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DEAC02- 07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy In order to guarantee an effective cool-down process for the SSR1 cryomodule, a high-vacuum level must be achieved at room temperature in the beam-line before introducing gaseous and liquid helium. The SSR1 cavities in the beamline have a small beam aperture compared to the size of their internal volume. To avoid unnecessary complications for the vacuum piping of the cryomodule cold-mass, a pilot study was conducted on the string prior to processing and qualification of the components to investigate the vacuum level achievable by pumping only through the beam-line. To estimate the pressure distribution inside the cavity string we used a mathematical model implemented in a test-particle Monte-Carlo simulator for ultra-high-vacuum systems. |

TUPB097 | The Study on Microphonics of Low Beta HWR Cavity at IMP | cavity, LLRF, SRF, FPGA | 837 |
|
|||
The superconducting linac of China Accelerator-Driven System Injector II will operate at CW-mode. The mechanical vibrations of the superconducting cavity, also known as microphonics, cause shifts in the resonant frequency of the cavity. The microphonics is the main disturbance source of cavity frequency shifts when the cavity running in CW mode. In order to understand the effects, microphonics measurements were performed on the half-wave superconducting cavities when they were operated in the cryostat. And the experimental modal test was also performed to identify noise source and improve the cavity structure optimization. The measurement method and results will be shown and analyzed in this paper. | |||

TUPB100 | CEA Experience and Effort to Limit Magnetic Flux Trapping in Superconducting Cavities | cavity, solenoid, SRF, vacuum | 847 |
|
|||
Protecting superconducting cavities from the surrounding static magnetic field is considered as a key point to reach very good cavity performances. This can be achieved by both limiting the causes of magnetic flux around the cavity in the cryomodule, and enclosing cavities and/or cryomodules into magnetic shields. We will present the effort made at CEA into this direction: shield design, shield material characterization, at room and cryogenic temperature, and search and attenuation of the magnetic background present in the cryomodule during the cavities superconducting transition. This last point will be especially studied for the IFMIF project where the cryomodule houses the focusing magnets. Aspects of the cold magnetic shields for ESS will also be discussed. | |||

TUPB101 | Design of the Thermal and Magnetic Shielding for the LHC High Luminosity Crab-Cavity Upgrade | cavity, shielding, simulation, operation | 852 |
|
|||
Before the High Luminosity (Hi-Lumi) upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), two pairs of superconducting compact Crab Cavities are to be tested within separate cryomodules, on the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) at CERN in 2018 prior to Long Shutdown 2. Two novel side-loaded cryomodules, which allow ease of access for assembly, inspection and maintenance, have been developed for the prototype tests. The cryomodule shielding includes a thermal shield and double layer magnetic shield, consisting of a warm-outer shield, and two cold-inner shields (one per cavity). Various constraints and considerations have led to unique cold shielding, mounted inside the cavity helium vessels, resulting in several design challenges. The shielding adopts and utilises the module’s side-loaded configuration, for continuity and accessibility, while satisfying tight spatial constraints and requirements to meet the functional specification. This paper outlines the design, analysis, manufacture and assembly of the Hi-Lumi SPS test cryomodule’s thermal and magnetic shielding, which are critical to achieving the operational stability. | |||

TUPB102 | Validation of Local Magnetic Shielding for FRIB Using a Prototype Cryomodule | solenoid, cavity, operation, shielding | 857 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science under Cooperative Agreement DE-SC0000661, and the U.S. National Science Foundation under Grant No. PHY-1102511. The local magnetic shield design and cryogenic magnetic shielding material for the FRIB QWR cryomodule was validated in a two cavity, one solenoid prototype cryomodule. The magnetic fields were measured inside and outside the magnetic shielding before, during, and after operation of an 8 T superconducting solenoid. The effect of demagnetization cycles of the solenoid was also examined. The magnetic field at the cavity’s high RF magnetic field area, inside the magnetic shield and with the solenoid off, was measured using a single-axis fluxgate to be less than 0.3 μT (3 mG) after cool down of the cryomodule. A 3.07 μT (30.7 mG) residual field was observed at high magnetic field area after conclusion of solenoid operation. This was attributed to the persistent currents circulating in the superconducting solenoid. Demagnetization cycles were therefore determined to be unnecessary for FRIB cryomodules, as long as the solenoid is normal conducting when the cavity is cooled through the superconducting critical temperature.

TUPB103 | Cryomodule Protection for ARIEL e-Linac | cavity, beam-loading, linac, vacuum | 861 |
|
|||
The e-Linac cryomodules require high RF power, cryogenics, ultra-high vacuum, and precise mechanical adjustment. They require protection against of failures, like quench in the cavity, bad vacuum or multipacting in power couplers, low liquid helium level or high temperatures. The protection unit should stop RF power in the cryomodule in case of the listed failures. A Interlock Box is developed to implement protection function for the cryomodule. The paper will describe the design of Interlock Box for e-Linac cryomodule protection. As quench protection required, quench evolution analysis with RF transient analysis is investigated. The details of quench detection for e-Linac will also be reported. | |||

TUPB107 | Development of a Test Bench to Prepare the Assembly of the IFMIF LIPAC Cavity String | cavity, solenoid, alignment, SRF | 879 |
|
|||
The IFMIF LIPAc cryomodule houses eight half-wave resonators and eight solenoids which will be assembled on a support frame in clean room. Due to the short lattice defined by beam dynamics constraints, there is not much room between two elements for the operators’ hands to connect them. In order to test, optimize and validate the clean room assembly procedures and the associated tools, a test bench, consisting of a frame, a little bigger than one eight of the final support has been manufactured. In order to start the tests before the delivery of the actual key components of the cryomodule, a dummy cavity, solenoid and coupler were manufactured and will be used to perform tests outside and inside the clean room to validate the assembly procedure and the tools. The mock-up will then be used to train the operators for the assembly of the whole string. | |||

TUPB108 | Connection of EU-XFEL Cryomodules, Caps, Boxes in EU-XFEL Main Linac and Injector: Welding of Cryo-Pipes and Assembly of Beam-Line Absorbers Under Requirements of PED Regulation | linac, vacuum, cryogenics, operation | 883 |
|
|||
The European X-ray Free Electron Laser (EU-XFEL) cold linac consists of 100 assembled cryomodules, 6 feed-/end-boxes and 6 string connection boxes fixed to the ceiling of the accelerator tunnel; the injector consists of a radio frequency gun, one 1.3 GHz and one 3.9 GHz cryomodule, one feed- and one end-cap lying on ground supports. The components are connected together in the tunnel, after cold testing, transport, final positioning and alignment. The cold linac is a pressure equipment and is therefore subjected to the requirements of the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED). This paper describes the welding and subsequent non-destructive testing of the cryo-pipes (with a deeper look at the technical solutions adopted to satisfy the PED requirements), the assembly of the beam line absorbers and the final steps before closing the connection with a DN1000 bellows. A special paragraph will be dedicated to the connection of the injector components, where the lack of space makes this installation a particularly challenging task. | |||

TUPB109 | Assembly and Cool-Down Tests of STF2 Cryomodule at KEK | cavity, HOM, vacuum, network | 888 |
|
|||
As the next step of the quantum beam project, the STF2 project is in progress at KEK. Eight 9-cell SC cavities and one superconducting quardrapole magnet were assembled into the cryomodule called CM1. Four 9-cell SC cavities were assembled into the cryomodule called CM2a. These two cryomodules were connected as one unit, and the examination of completion by a prefectural government was carried out. The target value of beam energy in the STF2 accelerator is 400 MeV with a beam current of 6 mA. The first cool down test for low power level RF measurements was performed in autumn of 2014. In this paper, the assembly procedure of the STF2 cryomodules and the results of the low-power measurement are reported. | |||

TUPB110 | LCLS-II 1.3 GHz Design Integration for Assembly and Cryomodule Assembly Facility Readiness at Fermilab | cavity, vacuum, instrumentation, alignment | 893 |
|
|||
Funding: DOE LCLS-II is a planned upgrade project for the linear coherent light source (LCLS) at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). The LCLS-II linac will consist of thirty-five 1.3 GHz and two 3.9 GHz superconducting RF continuous wave (CW) cryomodules that Fermilab and Jefferson Lab will assemble in collaboration with SLAC. The LCLS-II 1.3 GHz cryomodule design is based on the European XFEL pulsed-mode cryomodule design with modifications needed for CW operation. Both Fermilab and Jefferson Lab will each assemble and test a prototype 1.3 GHz cryomodule to assess the results of the CW modifications. After prototype cryomodule tests, both laboratories will increase cryomodule production rate to meet the challenging LCLS-II project installation schedule requirements of approximately one cryomodule per month per laboratory. This paper presents the 1.3 GHz CW cryomodule design integration for assembly at Fermilab, Fermilab Cryomodule Assembly Facility (CAF) infrastructure modifications for the LCLS-II cryomodules, and readiness for the required assembly throughput. |

TUPB113 | JLab Cryomodule Assembly Infrastructure Modifications for LCLS-II | cavity, vacuum, cryogenics, controls | 898 |
|
|||
Funding: This work was supported by the LCLS-II Project and the U.S. Department of Energy, Contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. The Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility is currently engaged, along with several other DOE national laboratories, in the Linac Coherent Light Source II project (LCLS II). The SRF Institute at Jefferson Lab will be building 1 prototype and 17 production cryomodules based on the TESLA / ILC / XFEL design. Each cryomodule will contain eight nine cell cavities with coaxial power couplers operating at 1.3 GHz. New and modified infrastructure and assembly tooling is required to construct cryomodules in accordance with LCLS-II requirements. The approach for modifying assembly infrastructure included evaluating the existing assembly infrastructure implemented at laboratories world-wide in support of ILC and XFEL production activities and considered compatibility with existing infrastructure at JLab employed for previous cryomodule production projects. These modifications include capabilities to test cavities, construct cavity strings in a class 10 cleanroom environment, assemble cavity strings into cryostats, and prepare cryomodules for cryogenic performance testing. This paper will give a detailed description of these modifications. |

TUPB115 | Improvements of the Mechanical, Vacuum and Cryogenic Procedures for European XFEL Cryomodule Testing | vacuum, operation, cryogenics, detector | 906 |
|
|||
The European X-ray Free Electron Laser is under construction at DESY, Hamburg. The linear accelerator part of the laser consists of 100 SRF cryomodules. Before installation in the tunnel the cryomodules undergo a series of performance tests at the AMTF Hall. Testing procedures have been implemented based on TTF (Tesla Test Facility) experience. However, the rate of testing and number of test benches is greater than in the TTF infrastructure. To maintain the goal testing rate of one module per week, improvement to the existing procedures were implemented at AMTF. Around 50% of the testing time is taken by connection of the cryomodule to the test bench, performing all necessary checks and cool down. Most of the preparation procedures have been optimized to decrease mounting time. This paper describes improvements made to the mechanical connections, vacuum checks and cryogenics operation. | |||

TUPB117 | Cavities and Cryomodules Managing System at AMTF | cavity, cryogenics, status, vacuum | 910 |
|
|||
800 SRF cavities and 100 SRF cryomodules are under test in the AMTF Hall at DESY, Hamburg. Testing of such a large volume of components requires a management system which can store the measurement data. In addition the system should simplify tasks which are recurrent. In the case of the system developed at AMTF, communication with external databases has also been developed. An added complication is that not all the test procedures are identical for each component, and therefore the management system keeps track of all work done for each of the individual components. In the case of the vertical acceptance tests for the 800 SRF cavities, the management system provides an interface for specifying a decision of the next step each cavity (e.g. send for module assembly or retreatment). This paper describes the most important parts of this system. | |||

TUPB118 | Improvements of the RF Test Procedures for European XFEL Cryomodule Testing | cavity, cryogenics, HOM, LLRF | 914 |
|
|||
The testing of the 100 SRF cryomodules for E-XFEL is currently ongoing at the AMTF Hall, located at DESY, Hamburg. Cold tests for the cryomodules have been developed based on TTF (Tesla Test Facility) experience. However, to be able to test the cryomodules with required test rate of one a week, some improvements to the measurements had to be made. The goal of these improvements was to reduce the time needed for testing without losing any of the important data for the cryomodule. Currently, after testing more than 30% of the cryomodules, gathered experience is now allowing us to skip or combine some of the measurements. This paper describes changes in the cold test procedures which have been made since the testing of the first serial cryomodules delivered by IRFU. | |||

|
|||
Funding: Canada Foundation for Innovation, British Columbia Knowledge Development Fund, and National Research Council Canada. At the moment TRIUMF operates one superconductive radio-frequency (SRF) accelerator and is building the second one. The superconducting heavy ion linear accelerator of the Isotope Separation and Acceleration (ISAC) facility utilizes medium beta quarter wave cavities cooled down to 4 K. The Advanced Rare IsotopE Laboratory (ARIEL) is a major expansion of the ISAC facility. ARIEL SRF electron linear accelerator (e-linac) operates nine-cell TESLA type cavities at 2 K. Both accelerators have dedicated cryogenic systems including liquid helium plants and distribution systems. In addition to accelerator cryogenic support, ISAC cryoplant provides liquid helium for the SRF testing facility at both 4 K and 2 K temperatures. TRIUMF’s SRF development involves both SRF testing facility and accelerators cryogenic support systems. This paper presents the details of the SRF testing cryogenic systems as well as recent commissioning results of the new e-linac cryogenic system. |

All SPIRAL2 cryomodules (twelve with one quarter wave resonator (QWR) at β=0.07 and seven with two QWRs at β=0.12) have been produced and qualified, and are now in installation phase on the LINAC at GANIL. After a general introduction on the LINAC, we will first remember and compare the different design choices taken for the two families of cryomodules. We will then present a summary of the techniques used for the preparation and integration of the cavities in the cryomodules, and compare the achieved performances with design parameters. At last, we describe the status of the LINAC installation as of end of August 2015. | |||

Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science, Office of Nuclear Physics contract number DE-AC02-06CH11357, and the Office of High Energy Physics contract number DE-AC02-76CH03000. We have designed, fabricated and tested two new half-wave resonators following the successful development of a series of niobium superconducting quarter-wave cavities. The half-wave resonators are optimized for β = 0.11 ions, operate at 162.5 MHz and are intended to provide up to 2 MV effective voltage for particles with the optimal velocity. Testing of the first two half-wave resonators is complete with both reaching accelerating voltages greater than 3.5 MV with low-field residual resistances of 1.7 and 2.3 nΩ respectively. The intention of this paper is to provide insight into how Argonne achieves low-residual resistances and high surface fields in low-beta cavities by describing the cavity design, fabrication, processing and testing. |

WEBA06 | Design Studies for Quarter-Wave Resonators and Cryomodules for the Riken SC-LINAC | linac, beam-loading, simulation, ion | 976 |
|
|||
Recently we proposed a new project aimed at intensity upgrade of uranium beams of RIKEN RIBF. In this new project, construction of a superconducting linac is planned replacing the injector cyclotron so called RRC. The RIKEN superconducting linac consists of 14 cryomodules each of which contains four quarter-wave-resonators (QWRs) in each. The QWR operates at an rf frequency of 73 MHz in the continuous wave mode with beta as low as 0.055-1.008. A coaxial probe-type RF fundamental power-coupler which transmits RF power of several kW will be utilized for beam loading of 1.3 kW/resonator at the maximum with Qext of several x106. Tuning of the resonant frequency will be realized with a mechanical tuner pressing the resonator wall in the direction parallel to the beam. This year, we started a development of a test cryomodule with SC-QWRs. In this paper, design studies for a SC-QWR and its cryomodule, e.g., QWR, coupler, and, tuner will be presented together with a construction schedule of the prototype. Prototyping of a superconducting cavity and its test cryomodule was funded by ImPACT Program of Council for Science, Technology and Innovation (Cabinet Office, Government of Japan). | |||

THAA06 | Precise Studies on He-Processing and HPR for Recovery From Field Emission by Using X-Ray Mapping System | cavity, radiation, operation, linac | 1019 |
|
|||
We usually met the degradation of superconducting RF cavity on the cryomodule test and beam operation even if the performance of this cavity is good on the vertical test (V.T). Field emission is the most severe problem for this degradation after reassembly work from vertical test. Not only high pressure rinsing (HPR) but also He-processing, which is more suitable method without the reassembly work for recovery, is recommended and tried to recover this degradation. However, we did not investigate the details of how field emission sources were processed and removed after HPR and He-processing. We deeply investigated the processing procedure during He-processing and how many field emission sources removed after HPR by using rotating X-ray mapping system* in V.T .

THPB008 | RF Simulations for an LCLS-II 3rd Harmonic Cavity Cyromodule | cavity, HOM, damping, dipole | 1078 |
|
|||
The FNAL designed 3.9 GHz third harmonic cavity for XFEL will be used in LCLS-II for linearizing the longitudinal beam profile. The 3.9 GHz SRF cavity is scaled down from the 1.3 GHz TESLA cavity shape, but has a disproportionately large beampipe radius for better higher-order mode (HOM) damping. The HOM and fundamental power (FPC) couplers will generate asymmetric field in the beam region, and thereby dilute the beam emittance. Meanwhile, due to the large beampipe, all but a few of the HOMs are above the beampipe cutoff. Thus the HOM damping analyses need to be performed in a full cryomodule, rather than in an individual cavity. The HOM damping in a 4-cavity cryomodule was investigated to determine possible trapped modes using the parallel electromagnetic code suite ACE3P developed at SLAC. The coupler RF kicks induced by the HOM and FPC couplers in the 3.9 GHz cavity were evaluated. A possible cavity-to-cavity arrangement is proposed which could provide effective cancellation of these RF kicks. In this paper we present and discuss the RF simulation results in the 3.9 GHz third harmonic cavity cryomodule.

THPB014 | Mechanical Optimization of High Beta 650 MHz Cavity for Pulse and CW Operation of PIP-II Project | cavity, operation, simulation, resonance | 1093 |
|
|||
The proposed design of the 0.8 GeV PIP-II SC Linac employs two families of 650 MHz 5-cell elliptical cavities with 2 different beta. The β=0.61 will cover the 185-500 MeV range and the β=0.92 will cover the 500-800 MeV range. In this paper we will present update of RF and mechanical design of dressed high beta cavity (β=0.92) for pulse regime of operation at 2 mA beam current. In previous CW version of PIP-II project the mechanical design was concentrated on minimization of frequency shift due to helium pressure fluctuation. In current case of pulse regime operation the main goal was Lorentz force detuning minimization. We present the scope of coupled RF-Mechanical issues and their resolution. Also detailed stress analysis of dresses cavity will be presented. | |||

Funding: Marie Curie action: Grant agreement PCOFUND-GA-2010-267194 A superconducting 800 MHz second harmonic system is proposed for HL-LHC. It serves as a cure for beam instabilities with high beam currents by improving Landau damping and will allow for bunch profile manipulation. This can potentially help to reduce intra-beam-scattering, beam induced heating and e-cloud effects, pile-up density in the detectors and beam losses. An overview of the 800 MHz cavity design and RF power requirements is given. In particular the design parameters of the cavity shape and HOM couplers are described. Some other aspects such as RF power requirements and cryomodule layout are also addressed. |

THPB025 | Exchange and Repair of Titanium Service Pipes for the EXFEL Series Cavities | cavity, alignment, linac, SRF | 1122 |
|
|||
Longitudinally-welded 72 mm ID service pipes (HSP) made from titanium grade 2 is used by the two suppliers of the helium tanks for the EU-XFEL accelerator. From the perspective of the PED DESY is legally designated as the manufacturer and is responsible for conformity to all relevant codes. During module assemblies at CEA Saclay the orbital welds of the interconnection bellows between cavities showed pores with dimensions outside the specifications set by DESY. These welds needed to be redone which caused a project delay of several months. The X-ray examination of the HSP showed that the pipes already exhibited many out-of- DESY spec pores in the longitudinal welds and were most likely the main cause of the problems in the orbital welds. It was decided to replace the extremities of the service pipes with seamless titanium tubes both on “naked” helium tanks as well as on tanks with cavities already welded in. At DESY more than 750 service pipes were exchanged over a period of 2 years. The qualification of the repair line according to PED regulation and the prove with RF test at 2 K that the repairs do not influence the high performance of the s.c. cavities were done. | |||

THPB028 | ESS Medium Beta Cavity Prototypes Manufacturing | cavity, HOM, linac, coupling | 1136 |
|
|||
The ESS elliptical superconducting linac consists of two types of 704.42 MHz cavities, medium and high beta, to accelerate the beam from 216 MeV (spoke cavity linac) up to the full energy at 2 GeV. The last linac optimization, called Optimus+, has been carried out taking into account the limitations of SRF cavity performance (field emission). The medium and high-beta parts of the linac are composed of 36 and 84 elliptical cavities, with geometrical beta values of 0.67 and 0.86 respectively. We describe here the procedures and numerical analysis leading from half-cells to a complete medium cavity assembly, which take into account not only the frequency of the fundamental accelerating mode but also the higher order modes near the machine line. The half cell selection process to form dumb bells will be described, as well as the reshaping and trimming procedure. | |||

THPB045 | Progress in IFMIF Half Wave Resonators Manufacturing and Test Preparation | cavity, simulation, vacuum, controls | 1191 |
|
|||
The IFMIF accelerator aims to provide an accelerator-based D-Li neutron source to produce high intensity high energy neutron flux to test samples as possible candidate materials to a full lifetime of fusion energy reactors. The first phase of the project aims at validating the technical options for the construction of an accelerator prototype, called LIPAc (Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator). A cryomodule hosting 8 Half Wave Resonators (HWR) at 175 MHz will provide the acceleration from 5 to 9 MeV. We report on the progress of the HWR manufacturing. A pre-series cavity will be used to assess and optimize the tuning procedure of the HWR, as well as the processing steps and related tooling. A new horizontal test cryostat (SATHORI) is also being set up at Saclay in the existing SRF test area. The SATHORI is dedicated to the IFMIF HWR performance check, fully equipped with its power coupler and cold tuning system. A 30kW-RF power will be available for these tests. | |||

THPB060 | Development of SRF Cavity Tuners for CERN | cavity, vacuum, operation, SRF | 1247 |
|
|||
Superconducting RF cavity developments are currently on-going for new accelerator projects at CERN such as HIE ISOLDE and HL-LHC. Mechanical RF tuning systems are required to compensate cavity frequency shifts of the cavities due to temperature, mechanical, pressure and RF effects on the cavity geometry. A rich history and experience is available for such mechanical tuners developed for existing RF cavities. Design constraints in the context of HIE ISOLDE and HL-LHC such as required resolution, space limitation, reliability and maintainability have led to new concepts in the tuning mechanisms. This paper will discuss such new approaches, their performances and planned developments. | |||

THPB062 | Accelerated Life Testing of LCLS-II Cavity Tuner Motor | cavity, acceleration, operation, SRF | 1257 |
|
|||
An Accelerated Life Test (ALT) of the Phytron stepper motor used in the LCLS-II cavity tuner is being carried out at JLab. Since the motor will reside inside the cryomodule, any failure would lead to a very costly and arduous repair. As such, the motor will be tested for the equivalent of five lifetimes before being approved for use in the production cryomodules. The 9-cell LCLS-II cavity will be simulated by disc springs with an equivalent spring constant. Hysteresis plots of the motor position vs. tuner position – measured via an installed linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) – will be used to determine any drift from the required performance. The titanium spindle will also be inspected for loss of lubrication. This paper outlines the ALT plan and latest results. | |||

THPB070 | Design of Dressed Crab Cavities for the HL-LHC Upgrade | cavity, niobium, SRF, operation | 1284 |
|
|||
The HL-LHC upgrade 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 geometry is provided along with an insight in the mechanical and thermal analyses performed to validate the design of this critical component. Emphasis is also given to material selection, prototyping, initial fabrication and test campaigns that are aimed at fulfilling the highly demanding tolerances of the couplers. | |||

THPB078 | Status of the Power Couplers for the ESS Elliptical Cavity Prototypes | cavity, vacuum, status, simulation | 1309 |
|
|||
In the frame of the European Spallation Source (ESS) project, a linear accelerator composed of a superconducting section is being developed. This accelerator owns two kinds of cavities called “medium beta cavity” (β=0.67) and “high beta cavity” (β= 0.86). These cavities are equipped with RF power couplers whose main characteristics are: fundamental frequency: 704.42MHz, peak RF power: 1.1MW, repetition rate: 14Hz, RF pulse width>3.1ms. These couplers are common to the two cavities. The CEA Saclay is responsible for the design, the manufacture, the preparation and the conditioning of the couplers used for the Elliptical Cavities Cryomodule Technological Demonstrators (ECCTD). This work is performed in collaboration with ESS and the IPNO. This paper describes the coupler architecture, its different components, the main characteristics and the specific features of its elements (RF performance, dissipated power, cooling, coupler box test for the conditioning). The status of the manufacture of each coupler part is also presented. | |||

THPB079 | Improved Capacitive Coupling Type RF Power Couplers for a Cryomodule With Two 9-Cell Cavities | coupling, impedance, SRF, simulation | 1313 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by Major State Basic Research Development Program of China(Grant No. 2011CB808302 and 2011CB808304) A capacitive coupling RF power coupler was used for the DC-SRF photoinjector at Peking University. Recently, improved capacitive coupling power couplers, which will be used for a new cryomodule with two 9-cell cavities have been designed and fabricated. The main modifications include enlarging the supporting rods of inner conductors in order to increase heat conduction, moving the bellows from the quarter-wave transformer to the 50 Ω coaxial line to avoid the mismatch during Qext adjusting. Two modified power coupler have already finished RF conditioning up to 10kW, TW, duty factor 30%. In this paper, detailed design based on multi-physics analysis and the conditioning of this improved capacitive coupling RF Power coupler will be presented. |

|
|||
ESS project aims being the world’s most powerful neutron source feeding multidisplinary researches. The superconducting part of the ESS linear accelerator includes 28 b=0.5 352.2 MHz SRF niobium double Spoke cavities. Paired in 13 cryomodules and held at 2K in a saturated helium bath those cavities will generate of an accelerating field of 9MV/m. The prototype Spoke cryomodule holds two cavities and their RF power couplers and integrates all the interfaces necessary to be operational within the linac machine. It is now being fabricated and its assembly will be performed with dedicated tooling and procedures in and out of the clean room. This prototype will be tested by the end of 2015 at IPNO site and then at full power at FREIA (Uppsala university) test stand. A valve box has thus been designed to take into account the specific features of this prototype cryomodule and of the cryogenic environments of both test sites. This valve box is also considered as a prototype of the cryogenic distribution of the linac Spoke section. This element will then be used for the tests of the series cryomodules. We propose to present this prototype Spoke cryomodule for ESS and the test valve box. | |||

Funding: Work supported, in part, by the US DOE and the LCLS-II Project. We will present the design of the 1.3 GHz cryomodule for the Linear Coherent Light Source upgrade (LCLS-II) at SLAC. Fermilab is responsible for the design of this cryomodule, a modified TESLA-style cryomodule to accommodate continuous wave (CW) mode operation and LCLS-II beam parameters, consisting of eight 1.3 GHz superconducting RF cavities, a corrector magnet package, and instrumentation. Thirty-five of these cryomodules, approximately half built at Fermilab and half at Jefferson Lab, will become the main accelerating elements of the 4 GeV linac. The modifications and special features of the cryomodule include: thermal and cryogenic design to handle high heat loads in CW operation, magnetic shielding and cool-down configurations to enable high quality factor (Q0) performance of the cavities, liquid helium management to address the different liquid levels in the 2-phase pipe with 0.5% SLAC tunnel longitudinal slope, support structure design to meet California seismic design requirements, and with the overall design consistent with space constrains in the existing SLAC tunnel. The prototype cryomodule assembly will begin in August 2015 and is to be completed in early 2016. |

FRBA02 | Crab Cavity and Cryomodule Development for HL-LHC | cavity, HOM, shielding, operation | 1460 |
|
|||
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. | |||
