MOPD001 | SRF Capabilities at ACCEL in view of ILC/XFEL | 445 |
|
||
In the last decade, ACCEL has manufactured a variety of prototype SRF cavities but also more than 100 TESLA shape 1.3 GHz 9 cell cavities and more than 100 SNS 805 MHz 6-cell cavities. For the ILC R&D at FNAL, we have delivered 12 ILC 9-cell 1.3 GHz cavities and are currently producing 12 additional such cavities. ACCEL is prepared for the industrial production of cavities, couplers and also the module assembly for the XFEL. We have internally evaluated the needs and costs for an in house production of the XFEL cavities. Within an industrial study we have analysed the coupler production for the XFEL, developed a series production adapted XFEL coupler design based on the TTF-III coupler and determined the costs for the series production. ACCEL participated also in a module assembly study and investigated the costs for manpower and infrastructure to manufacture the needed modules for the XFEL within the forseen time of three years. Last year ACCEL was contracted by DESY to built up an industrial plant for electropolishing 1.3 GHz 9 cell cavities. This plant is in routine operation since November 2007 and we have sucessfully electropolished the first series of 10 cavities for DESY. | ||
MOPD002 | Fabrication of ILC Prototype Cavities at Advanced Energy Systems, Inc. | 448 |
|
||
Advanced Energy Systems, Inc. has recently completed manufacture of four standard 9-cell TESLA-style ILC cavities, six single-cell ILC prototype cavities, six 9-cell symmetric ILC cavities, and one 9-cell re-entrant cavity of the Cornell design. This paper will present an overview of these fabrication projects and of the evolution of AES capability in cavity manufacturing. To date four of the 9-cell ILC cavities have been tested, the six single-cell cavities have been tested, and the 9-cell reentrant cavity has been tested. Preliminary results will be shown. | ||
MOPD003 | ILC Cavity Fabrication Optimization for High Production | 451 |
|
||
In 2006, AES performed a US based industrial Cost Study of RF units in production quantities sufficient for the ILC. During this study detailed costs were estimated for the fabrication steps of the SRF cavities in high production quantities. In late 2007, AES carried out a more detailed study specifically oriented toward optimizing the high production methods of only the SRF cavities to arrive at a best estimate of cost. We have found that the revised estimate shows a 34% reduction in cavity fabrication cost. We have optimized many of the machining and welding steps to take advantage of automated operations were possible. Our high production cost estimates were based upon actual machining, welding and parts handling times derived during the prototype fabrication of ILC type cavities at AES. These values were then applied with learning as appropriate to more automated operations to reduce labor costs. In addition, the type and size of e-beam welding machines was optimized. We found that the use of all single chamber welders covering three specific sizes was most cost effective. Details of steps leading to the stated conclusions are presented herein. | ||
MOPD004 | CPI RF Components for the ILC | 454 |
|
||
Communications & Power Industries, Inc. (CPI) has active programs to refine key components for the European XFEL. These components, the fundamental power coupler and the multibeam klystron (MBK) are also suited for the International Linear Collider (ILC). CPI power couplers are manufactured to our customer's specifications using processes which are standard to the electron device industry as well as processes which are specific to power couplers. We have developed the capability of plating high-RRR copper on stainless steel. We have developed the capability of applying TiN coatings to ceramic windows. Both processes are done in-house under carefully controlled conditions. Both processes have been fully qualified. CPI has manufactured nearly 100 power couplers of various designs. Our presentation will focus on power couplers for the XFEL and the ILC. CPI is currently developing a second-generation, horizontal MBK for DESY. This MBK operates at 10 MW, at an RF frequency of 1.3 GHz, 1.5 ms pulse length, and 10 Hz pulse repetition rate. Our presentation will provide an update on this development program. | ||
MOPD005 | Recent Activities in ILC R&D at Hitachi | 457 |
|
||
We participated in the construction of STF (Superconducting RF Test Facility) cryomodule. This paper describes our recent activities in ILC R&D. | ||
MOPD007 | Waveguide Directional Couplers for High Vacuum Applications | 460 |
|
||
Directional couplers have always been critical elements in the RF feed systems for accelerator structures. Until now, however, such devices have been confined to areas outside of the high vacuum cavity feeds. The level control of the RF signal required at the cavity inputs is continually increasing and it has become apparent that a directional coupler design for the high vacuum side of the system is necessary. The following paper highlights a novel coupler design to allow high vacuum directional couplers to be realized. Results are presented for both electrical and mechanical characteristics for an L-band device. | ||
MOPD009 | Status of the Superconducting Cavity Development for ILC at MHI | 463 |
|
||
We report on the activities and achievements at MHI in the field of the superconducting cavity development for ILC. We describe especially the new procedures of cavity production for mass production. | ||
MOPD010 | Design of XFEL facility in Harima | 466 |
|
||
The 700m-long 8 GeV XFEL that was launched by RIKEN is now under construction and will be operational in FY 2010. The strong point of the XFEL facility in Japan is compact under keeping high-performance by applying Spring-8 numerous breakthroughs in accelerator-driven light sources technology. In order to support the high-performance of XFEL, the building was designed with a few architectural ideas. In this paper we introduce the design of building foundation and ground so as to control the transformation of floor which the devices are fixed to, and the design of air conditioning so as to control the temperature change around the devices. | ||
MOPD012 | Half Wave Injector Design for WiFEL | 469 |
|
||
Seeded FELs will require exceptional beam quality. The Wisconsin FEL (WiFEL) requires peak currents of greater than 1 kA with less than 1 mm-mrad transverse slice emittance and 1·10-4 δp/p at the undulator. To perform the obligatory bunch compression after the injector without allowing micro-bunching will require very smooth bunch energy and density profiles and relatively low compression ratios. An injector which uses a low frequency, superconducting, half wave resonator gun combined with self-inflating, ellipsoidal bunches* to meet those requirements is described. The superconducting radio frequency TEM-class cavities have been in use for more than 25 years and because of their potential for flat field profiles, are desirable as electron gun structures. A Superfish model and field map of the specific gun cavity is presented. ASTRA** simulations from the cathode to 120MeV are provided. A description is given of the technique used to emittance compensate the space charge induced energy chirp while maintaining the peak bunch current.

MOPD014 | First Test Results of ILC/STF Cryogenic System at KEK | 472 |
|
||
The STF (Superconducting RF Test Facility) cryogenic system, of which capacity is 30W at 2.0K, has been constructed and commissioned for testing STF cryomodule. In the first operation phase, the STF cryogenic system was successfully cooled down to maintain a superconducting RF cavity at the working temperature of 2.0K. Presented in this session will be the results of the first operation of the cryogenic system and the future collaboration plan among KEK and Japanese cryogenic industrial members. | ||
MOPD015 | Current Status of Development in TETD of High-power Vacuum Microwave Devices | 475 |
|
||
TETD (Toshiba Electron Tubes & Devices Co., LTD.) has been developing a wide variety of klystrons and input couplers in collaboration with some Japanese research institutes. This article presents recent results of the development including a C-band and an S-band pulsed klystrons for SPring-8 Joint Project for XFEL, 1.3-GHz horizontal MBK for DESY and a 1.3-GHz TTF-type input coupler for the European XFEL. As an application to fusion experimental devices, development of a 5-GHz, 500-kW CW klystron for KSTAR and a 170-GHz quasi CW gyrotron for ITER are also presented. | ||
MOPD016 | ALS Storage Ring RF System Upgrade | 478 |
|
||
ALS is one of the first third generation synchrotron light sources which has been operating since 1992 at Berkeley Lab. Presently, the ALS Storage Ring System is comprised of a single 330kW klystron feeding two normal-conducting single-cell RF cavities via a WR1800 circulator and magic-tee transmission system. The klystron has operated well beyond its expected lifetime and even though replacement klystrons are available from a different manufacturer, we have opted to build the replacement amplifier with a system of four Inductive Output Tubes, (IOT). The new amplifier system will use Cavity Combiners (CaCo) to combine IOT outputs and a magic-tee to combine IOT pairs to feed the existing transmission line connected to the cavities. The existing HVPS will be upgraded to interface with the four IOT amplifiers and its crowbar will be replaced with a series solid-state switch. The system is being designed to operate with the industry standard external cavity IOTs (80kW) and integral cavity IOTs (90-100kW). In this paper we will present the details of the upgrade of each of the sub-systems in the ALS Storage Ring RF System. | ||
MOPD017 | G4Beamline Program for Radiation Simulations | 481 |
|
||
G4beamline, a program that is an interface to the Geant4 toolkit that we have developed to simulate accelerator beamlines, is being extended with a graphical user interface to quickly and efficiently model experimental equipment and its shielding in experimental halls. The program is flexible, user friendly, and requires no programming by users, so that even complex systems can be simulated quickly. This improved user interface is of much wider application than just the shielding simulations that are the focus of this project. As an initial application, G4beamline is being extended to provide the simulations that are needed to determine the radiation sources for the proposed experiments at Jefferson Laboratory so that shielding issues can be evaluated. Since the program already has the capabilities needed to simulate the transport of all known particles, including scattering, attenuation, interactions, and decays, the extension involves implementing a user-friendly graphical user interface for specifying the simulation, and creating general detector and shielding component models and interfacing them to existing Geant4 models of the experimental halls. | ||
MOPD018 | Energy Dependent Measurements of Gamma and Neutron Dose at ANKA | 484 |
|
||
Gamma and neutron radiation dose rate around an electron storage ring are proportional to the number of lost particles in a certain time. They are depending on beam energy, current, lifetime and operating conditions of the storage ring. The online area monitoring network of ANKA makes it possible to measure the radiation from the decaying beam at eight stations distributed all over the ANKA hall. Measurements of the ambient dose at beam energies from 800 MeV to 2.5 GeV show higher dose rates around and in the forward direction of insertion devices and other devices with restricted horizontal or vertical aperture. | ||
MOPD019 | Construction and Quality Control of Synchrotron SOLEIL Beam Position Monitors | 487 |
|
||
SOLEIL is a third generation synchrotron light source located near Paris. Due to the high performance required for SOLEILs diagnostics, a special production procedure was tailored. During the production of 131 Beam Position Monitors (BPM) more than 500 feedthroughs were inspected; all of them passed strict tests at different stages of the production: Leak test (< 10-10 mbar l/s), Dimensional control (Displacement <0.050 mm), Vacuum test (Specific Outgassing < 10-12 mbar l/s cm2, Residual Gas Analysis) and Electrical test (Capacitance measure ~8pF, Insulation >50 MΩ, Impedance <0.1 Ω). All the established procedures and tests have been performed in a tight partnership that was more than a simple contractual framework, in which an intensive collaboration led to a knowledge transfer between SOLEIL and Rial Vacuum. The result has been a high percentage of success (few feedthroughs over 500 were replaced) during preliminary tests and a deeper knowledge of BPM problem solving; in this article are presented different test procedures to obtain high quality and high performance BPMs. | ||
MOPD022 | New 1MW 704MHz RF Test Stand at CEA-Saclay | 490 |
|
||
In the frame of the european CARE/HIPPI programme, superconducting accelerating cavities for pulsed proton injectors are developed. Qualification of these 704 MHz RF structures fully equipped (housed in a helium tank, with tuning system and power coupler), requires to perform high power tests in the existing horizontal cryostat CryHoLab. During the last years, CEA-Saclay built and ordered the necessary RF equipments to make such a platform for high power RF tests in a cryogenic environment available to the partners in HIPPI and later on to any other interested European teams. The main components of the RF test stand (95 kV-275kVA DC High Voltage Power Supply, 50Hz modulator and 1MW 704.4MHz RF klystron amplifier) are now installed and tested. In this paper, we present the different components with a focus on the new design of the hard tube modulator to match the new specifications and the compatibility with the floating HVPS, the results of the HV and RF measurements performed and we give a brief description of the PXI-based controller for the interlocks and klystron auxiliary controls. | ||
MOPD023 | Parametric Study of a Novel Coaxial Bunched Beam Space-charge Limit | 493 |
|
||
Recently, a non-trivial space-charge limit for off-axis bunched electron beams in a coaxial conducting structure was derived theoretically*. The space-charge limit describes the minimum strength of an external solenoidal focusing field which is needed to stabilize the beams center-of-mass motion in the presence of induced surface charges on the coaxial structure. In this paper, we perform a parametric study of the space-charge limit to numerically determine its dependency on the conducting structure geometry, i.e., the ratio of the inner and outer conductor radii, as well as its dependency on the transverse and longitudinal bunch distributions. As an application, we show how this parametric study can be important for the design of high-power microwave sources, such as the UC-Davis/SLAC 2.8 GHz coaxial ubitron oscillator**.

MOPD024 | RF Power System for the IFMIF-EVEDA Prototype Accelerator | 496 |
|
||
The IFMIF-EVEDA accelerator will be a 9 MeV, 125 mA cw deuteron accelerator prototype for verifying the validity of the accelerator design for IFMIF. The RFQ, matching section and DTL resonant cavities must be fed with continuous RF power at 175 MHz frequency with an accuracy of 1% in amplitude and ± 1° in phase. Currently two possible solutions for the DTL design are considered. The first option consists of normal conducting (NC) Alvarez type cavities and the second option consists of superconducting (SC) Half Wave Resonator cavities. Both options impose different demands on the RF system which are analyzed in this paper. The RF power system will be made of several amplification stages and will be based on vacuum tube amplifiers. The main characteristics of RF system including those of the high voltage power sources required to feed the anodes of the high power tubes will be presented in this paper. | ||
MOPD025 | Status of the 805-MHz Pulsed Klystrons for the Spallation Neutron Source | 499 |
|
||
Communications and Power Industries, Inc (CPI) produced 81 klystrons for the Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The klystrons are rated for 550 kW peak at 805 MHz. Seventy units have accumulated 1.2M hours of filament operation and 820K hours of high voltage operation through January 2008. A higher power 700 kW version has been developed and is now in production with 12 of the 38 units on order delivered through January 2008. Performance specifications, computer model predictions, operating results, production statistics, and operational status will be presented. | ||
MOPD026 | Radiological Hazards Assessment for the Beam Dump of High Intensity Deuteron Accelerators | 502 |
|
||
Several of the most important aspects with regards to the radiological potential hazards assessment in the beam dump of a high intensity deuteron accelerator are analyzed. Deuteron and neutron induced activation as well as neutron production for the beam dump cartridge, in order to select low activation materials; evaluation of the tritium production due to the implanted deuterium in the material and the presence of water in the cooling and local shielding systems, relevant for the associated radiotoxicity; estimation of gamma dose rate in beam-off phase in the vicinity of the cartridge, important issue for accessibility and maintenance works of the system. All these points are assessed both for normal operation and commissioning phase in the IFMIF-EVEDA accelerator prototype. Several materials are studied according to neutron production using transport codes (MCNPX and PHITS) and EAF2007 libraries. Activation calculations with ACAB code use irradiation fluxes obtained with MCNPX. Evaluation of tritium production due to implanted deuterium is calculated with SRIM-TMAP7 coupled code. Tritium in water is calculated by activation procedures. Gamma dose rate is computed with MCNPX. | ||
MOPD027 | AMC-based Radiation Monitoring System | 505 |
|
||
This paper reports a novel radiation monitoring system able to monitor gamma and neutron radiation in an accelerator tunnel in the nearest proximity of the electronic components of the control system. The monitoring system is designed as an Advanced Mezzanine Module (AMC) and it is dedicated for the Low Level Radio Frequency (LLRF) control system based on the Advanced Telecommunication Computing Architecture (ATCA). The AMC module is able to communicate with LLRF control system using both I2C interface defined by Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) standard and PCI Express. The measured gamma radiation dose and neutron fluence are sent to data acquisition computer using Ethernet network and stored in a database. Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) is applied as a neutron dosimeter. The principle of the detector is based on the radiation effect initiating the Single Event Upsets (SEUs) in a high density microelectronic SRAMs. A well known RadFET dosimeter is used to monitor gamma radiation. | ||
MOPD028 | Radio Frequency Power Sources for the Muon Ionisation Cooling Experiment | 508 |
|
||
For any future Neutrino Factory the accelerator aperture will be a major cost driver. Potentially the aperture can be reduced and significant capital savings made if ionisation cooling is utilised on the muon beam. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of ionisation cooling a demonstrator needs to be built and operated. MICE, the Muon Ionisation Cooling Experiment is that demonstrator. The RF requirements of MICE will be met using high power vacuum tube based RF circuits donated by LBNL and CERN. This paper will discuss these circuits, their refurbishment, the construction of HT power supplies and ancillary equipment and high power testing. | ||
MOPD029 | Commissioning of the 2,2 kW, 476 MHz Solid State RF Power Source for the LNLS Booster Synchrotron | 511 |
|
||
A 2.2 kW, 476 MHz unconditionally stable solid state RF amplifier for CW operation has been built, tested, and is being used since july 2007 at LNLS. The amplifier, designed and developed in collaboration with Synchrotron SOLEIL, is made of 9 modules, each one containing one push-pull 290 W MOSFET equipped with an internal circulator and RF load. Low cost, reliability, linearity and high efficiency are the main features we aimed for in this device, which was developed for the LNLS Booster Injector. In this paper, we present technical characteristics as well as test results of the system. | ||
MOPD030 | The LHC radiation monitoring system for the environment and safety: from design to operation | 514 |
|
||
The RAdiation Monitoring System for the Environment and Safety (RAMSES) has been installed and successfully commissioned. The system was originally designed for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), it was extended to the CNGS and it is also planned to further extend it to the rest of the CERN accelerators. This state-of-the-art radiation monitoring and alarm system provides permanent ambient dose equivalent rates and ambient dose equivalent measurement in the underground areas as well as on the surface inside and outside the CERN perimeter; it permanently monitors air and water released from the LHC and CNGS installations; it also integrates some conventional environmental measurement such as physicochemical parameters of released water. This paper illustrates the experience gained during the various project phases outlining the problems encountered and the solutions implemented. In addition, it gives a first feedback on the operational experience gained with the CNGS. | ||
MOPD031 | Automatic Implementation of Radiation Protection Algorithms in Programs Generated by GCC Compiler | 517 |
|
||
Radiation influence on microprocessor-based systems is serious problem especially in places like accelerators and synchrotrons, where sophisticated digital devices operate closely to the radiation source. Reliability of such systems is significantly decreased due to effects like SEU or SEFI. One of the possible solutions to increase radiation immunity of the microprocessor systems is a strict programming approach known as Software Implemented Hardware Fault Tolerance. SIHFT methods are based on the redundancy of variables or procedures. Sophisticated algorithms are used to check the correctness of control flow in application. Unfortunately, manual implementation of presented algorithms is difficult and can introduce additional problems with program functionality cased by human errors. Proposed solution is based on modifications of the source code of the C language compiler. Protection methods are applied at intermediate representation of the compiled source code. This approach makes it possible to use standard optimization algorithms during compilation. In addition, a responsibility for implementing fault tolerant is transferred to the compiler and is transparent for programmers. | ||
MOPD032 | Neutronics Calculations to Support the SNS Accelerator Facility | 520 |
|
||
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is an accelerator driven neutron scattering facility for materials research that recently started operations. After commissioning, the facility started at low power and is presently in the process of a power ramp to reach the Megawatt power level within two years of operations, maintenance, and tuning cycles. Extensive neutronics work for shielding development and dose rate predictions was completed during design and construction for various operational and shut down scenarios. Now that the facility is successfully operating, there is still demand for neutronics analyses for radiation-protection support. This need arises from redesigning some parts of the facility, facility upgrades, designing additional structures, designing test stands for accelerator structures, and verification and code validation analyses on the basis of the measured data. | ||
MOPD033 | The ALBA RF Amplifier System Based on Inductive Output Tubes (IOT) | 523 |
|
||
The ALBA accelerator RF systems include a complete new transmitter developed in collaboration between Thomson Broadcast & Multimedia (TBM), Thales Electron Devices (TED) and CELLS. A new IOT version, based on the previous TH793 has been developed by TED: the TH793-1, dedicated to scientific applications. It has demonstrated cw operation up to 90 kW at 500 MHz. In addition, a TH18973 LS cavity has also been developed, featuring a 61/8 coaxial RF output, an optimized cooling system and centred operation at 500 MHz, 7 MHz bandwidth and ± 5 MHz tuning range. TBM developed a new amplifier system to achieve high reliability and performance. Each IOT is powered by an individual power supply based on the Pulse Step Modulator technology. The amplifier control system was designed on a PLC controller with the possibility to interface with the Tango control system. The first amplifier was delivered to ALBA in summer 2007 and is already in use for the conditioning and testing of the first RF cavity. The remaining 13 amplifiers will be delivered in the second half of 2008. The paper gives an overview on the design and operation performance during commissioning and cavity testing. | ||
MOPD034 | Status of the High Power, Solid-State RF Amplifier Development at Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro | 526 |
|
||
The development of high power, unconditionally stable solid-state amplifiers for superconducting low-beta cavities, performed at Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro in the framework of the EURISOL Design Study, has led to the construction and testing of two, newly designed 10 kW units that can be used both individually or coupled together to obtain a 20 kW source. Characteristic of this family of amplifiers, based on parallel assemblies of 300W modules equipped with mosfets and individual circulators, is their possibility of operating in any matching conditions and also, at a reduced power, in case of failure of one mosfet. Characteristics of the amplifiers and of the high power combiner will be described, and their performance and test results will be reported. | ||
MOPD035 | 20 MW Pulse Amplifier Klystron with Multiple Frequency Two-Gap Bunching Resonators for Linear Electron Accelerators | 529 |
|
||
A klystron design with a two-gap bunching resonator which provides interaction with electron beam by fields of multiple frequencies of two-gap resonator fundamental oscillations for increasing the klystron efficiency is being considered. At that the two-gap resonator is tuned to antiphased oscillation at operating frequency and to in-phase oscillation at the second harmonic. Such choice of frequency oscillation types allows to make the resonator compact and provide optimal conditions for electron beam interaction with microwave fields of the two-gap resonator both in antiphased and in-phase oscillation types. The relations for choosing two-gap resonator interaction area size providing a stable klystron operation without self-excitation are given. The compactness of the realized two-gap resonator with multiple frequencies allowed to locate it into klystron drift tube between the main resonators without increasing the klystron overall dimensions. The results of experimental research of klystron with such a two-gap resonator showed a possibility to increase its efficiency significantly. | ||
MOPD037 | Safety Testing for LHC Access System | 532 |
|
||
This paper presents the validation and verification activities carried out for the LHC Access Control and Safety System. It also presents a new strategy for the future that includes the application of formal methods based on model checking techniques, commonly used to prove the correctness of software algorithms or system functional specifications through automatic exploration of the system state space. We will show how to apply these techniques in order to automate the testing process. The paper also presents the results of the performances and the applicability of a series of tools that have been tested in order to carry out a formal correctness proof for the LHC Access System. | ||
MOPD038 | First Radiation Monitoring Results During Elettra Booster Commissioning | 535 |
|
||
The new injection system for the Elettra storage ring is based on a 100 MeV linac and a booster synchrotron, where the electron energy can be raised up to 2.5 GeV. The new machine is designed to perform full energy injection, also in top-up mode. Outside the shielding, radiation monitoring is performed through a real-time network of gamma and neutron dosimeters as well as through TLD passive dosimeters. The radiation monitors placed next to the beamlines are interlocked with the machine operation and prevent injection into the storage ring if the alarm threshold is exceeded. This paper reports the first results of the radiation monitoring performed during the new injector commissioning. | ||
MOPD039 | The Personnel Safety System of the Elettra Booster | 538 |
|
||
The new injector of the Elettra storage ring is based on a 100 MeV linac feeding a 3 Hz booster synchrotron. The booster is designed to accelerate the electron beam up to the maximum energy of 2.5 GeV, providing full-energy injection into the storage ring. The Personnel Safety System (PSS) of the new injector protects personnel from radiation hazards by controlling access to restricted areas and interrupting the machine operation in case unsafe conditions occur. The system is based on Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) technology providing redundant logic in a fail-safe configuration. This paper describes the radiation safety criteria that have been defined to minimize radiation exposure hazards as well as the technology and architecture chosen for the PSS implementation. | ||
MOPD041 | The SSRF Radiation Safety Interlock System | 541 |
|
||
Radiation Safety Interlock System (RSIS) for the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) is composed of two subsystems, the Access Control System (ACS) and the radiation containment system (RCS).The ACS prevents personnel from being exposed to the extremely high radiation inside the SSRF shielding tunnel (or called the interlock area) during machine operation. The RCS prevents personnel from being exposed to the high radiation outside a shielding tunnel during either normal or abnormal operation. The implementation of the ACS is based on the Programmable Logic Controllers, key transfer interlocking systems and IC card system. The RSIS is based on fail-safe, redundancy, multiplicity. Any violation of the RSIS will result in the inhibiting of redundant permission to the associated interlock systems, and cease the injection process and eliminate the entire stored electron beam in the SSRF. This paper describes the design philosophy, the logic, and the implementation of the RSIS at SSRF. | ||
MOPD042 | Design and Testing of the Horizontal Version of the Multi Beam Klystron for European XFEL Project | 544 |
|
||
Toshiba Electron Tubes & Devices (TETD) has been developing 10-MW L-band Multi-Beam Klystrons (MBKs) for the European XFEL project and possibly for future linear colliders. In order to allow horizontal installation in the XFEL tunnel, the horizontal version of MBK, MBK E3736H, has been designed, fabricated and tested by TETD. The MBK has six low-perveance beams operated at low voltage of less than 120 kV (for 10MW) and six ring-shaped cavities. In the successful acceptance testing at TETD in August 2007, the MBK achieved an output power of 10.3 MW at the beam voltage of 117 kV and at the RF pulse width of 1.5ms with efficiency of 67%. This test demonstrated that MBK E3736H fulfills all the requirements necessary as the RF power source of the XFEL linac. |
