  The Phase II upgrade to the LHC collimation system calls for complementing the 30 high robust Phase I graphite collimators with 30 high Z, low impedance Phase II collimators. The design for the collimation upgrade has not been finalized. One option is to use metallic rotatable collimators and this design will be discussed here. Simulations have been performed in MAFIA to study both the resistive wall and geometric impedance contributions of our rotatable collimator design. Benchtop stretched coil probe impedance measurements have also been performed on prototype components to directly measure the low frequency impedance contributions. The design also calls for an RF contact interface at the jaw end. This contact resistance must be a small fraction of a milliohm in order to limit transverse impedance. DC resistance measurements in a custom built test chamber have been performed to test the performance of various metal pairs and surface coatings.

  The successful operation of accelerator cavities has to satisfy both rf and mechanical requirements. It is highly desirable that electromagnetic, thermal and structural effects such as cavity wall heating and Lorentz force detuning in superconducting rf cavities can be addressed in an integrated analysis. Based on the SLAC parallel finite-element code infrastructure for electromagnetic modeling, a novel multi-physics analysis tool has been developed to include additional thermal and mechanical effects. The speedup from parallel computation enables virtual prototyping of accelerator cavities on computers, which would substantially reduce the cost and time of a design cycle. The multi-physics tool will be applied to the LCLS rf gun and a superconducting rf gun cavity.
