Two normal conducting cavities operating at 704 MHz and 2.1 GHz will be used for the Low Energy RHIC electron Cooling (LEReC) under development at BNL to improve RHIC luminosity for heavy ion beam energies below 10 GeV/nucleon. The single cell 704 MHz cavity and the 3-cell 2.1 GHz third harmonic cavity will be used in LEReC to correct the energy spread introduced in the SRF cavity. The successful operation of normal RF cavities has to satisfy both RF and mechanical requirements. 3-D coupled RF-thermal-structural analysis has been performed on the cavities to confirm the structural stability and to minimize the frequency shift resulting from thermal and structural expansion. In this paper, we will present an overview of the mechanical design, results from the RF-thermal-mechanical analysis, progress on the fabrication and schedule for the normal conducting RF cavities for LEReC.

To improve RHIC luminosity for heavy ion beam energies below 10 GeV/nucleon, the Low Energy RHIC electron Cooler (LEReC) is currently under development at BNL. The Linac of LEReC is designed to deliver 2 MV to 5 MV electron beam, with rms dp/p less than 5·10-4. The HOM in this Linac is carefully studied to ensure this specification.

Two normal conducting cavities, a single cell 704 MHz cavity and a 3 cell 2.1 GHz third harmonic cavity, will be used in LEReC for energy spread correction. Currently these two cavities are under fabrication. In this paper we report the RF design of these two cavities.

High-gradient CW photo-injectors operating at high ac-celerating gradients promise to revolutionize many sci-ences and applications. They can establish the basis for super-bright monochromatic X-ray and gamma-ray sources, high luminosity hadron colliders, nuclear- waste transmutation or a new generation of microchip produc-tion. In this paper we report on our operation of a super-conducting RF electron gun with a record-high accelerat-ing gradient at the CsK2Sb photocathode (i.e. ~ 20 MV/m) generating a record-high bunch charge (i.e., 2 nC). We briefly describe the system and then detail our experimental results.

  The LHC double quarter wave (DQW) crab cavities have two different types of Higher Order Mode (HOM) couplers in addition to a fundamental power coupler (FPC). The FPC requires conditioning, so to achieve this we have designed a radio-frequency (RF) quarter wave resonator to provide high transmission between two opposing FPCs. For the HOM couplers we must ensure that the stop-band filter is positioned at the cavity frequency and that peak transmission occurs at the same frequencies as the strongest HOMs. We have designed two test boxes which preserve the cavity spectral response in order to test the couplers.

The proposed eRHIC electron ion collider at BNL must use a relatively large crossing angle between the ion and electron beams for various reasons, including the reduction of long-range beam-beam effects and minimization of synchrotron radiation noise in the detector. To prevent significant loss of the luminosity due to this large crossing angle, the design of the collider requires the use of groups of crab cavities to provide local crabbing for both proton/ion and electron beams. We will base our design for eRHIC crab cavities based on our experience in the design of the 400 MHz double quarter wave crab cavity (DQWCC) for the Hi-Lumi upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. This DQWCC design is scaled to different frequencies of a main crab cavity and its higher harmonics for eRHIC. In this paper, we discuss the preliminary designs of the eRHIC crab cavities and their major parameters.

The nominal operating frequency for the HL-LHC crab cavities is 400.79 MHz within a bandwidth of ±60kHz. Attaining the required cavity tune implies a good understanding of all the processes that influence the cavity frequency from the moment when the cavity parts are being fabricated until the cavity is installed and under operation. Different tuning options will be available for the DQW crab cavity of LHC. This paper details the different steps in the cavity fabrication and preparation that may introduce a shift in the cavity frequency and introduces the different tuning methods foreseen to bring the cavity frequency to meet the specifications.

  Photon diffraction model (PDM) is one of the most promising candidates to study High Order Mode (HOM) power absorption on absorbing materials for high current SRF cavities. Because at very high frequency (>10GHz), the wavelengths of HOMs are much smaller compared with accelerators dimension, the phase of those HOM will be negligible. Meanwhile, Finite Element Method (FEM) cannot lend a high resolution on evaluation the HOM field patterns due to limited meshing capability. This PDM model utilizes Monte Carlo simulation to trace the ray diffusive reflection in a cavity. This method can directly estimate the power absorption on the cavity and absorber wall. This method will help design the HOM damper setup for eRHIC HOM damper. In this report, we evaluate HOM absorption on the cavity wall with different absorber setup and give a possible solution for power damping scheme for high frequency HOMs.
