| TUPOW036 | Recent Developments and Operational Status of the Compact ERL at KEK | 1835 |
|
||
| The Compact Energy Recovery Linac (cERL) at KEK is a test accelerator in order to develop key components to realize remarkable ERL performance as a future light source. After the beam commissioning in December 2013, the legal current limit has been increased step-by-step like 1 uA, 10 uA, and 100 uA. Survey for the source of beam losses has been conducted in each step, and the study on beam dynamics and tuning has also been carried out. As a next step, 1 mA operation is scheduled in February 2016. In parallel to the increase in beam current, a laser Compton scattering (LCS) system which can provide high-flux X-ray to a beamline has been successfully commissioned. We report recent progress in various kinds of beam tuning: improvement of electron gun performance, high bunch charge operation, mitigation of beam losses, LCS optics tuning and bunch compression for THz radiation. | ||

| WEPMB007 | Error Estimation in Cavity Performance Test for the European XFEL at DESY | 2128 |
|
||
| The cavity performance tests, that is, vertical test (V.T.) and cryomodule test (C.T.), in the cavity/cryomodule mass production for XFEL have been done since 2012 at DESY, and is still on-going at present. At the comparatively initial stage of the mass production, the error estimation in the cavity performance tests was done for understanding how precisely those measurements are done at AMTF (Accelerator Module Test Facility). There are two parameters for the error estimation in V.T. One is the cable calibration parameter, and the other is the external Q-value, which is related to the power emitted from cavity. The measurement precision in the external Q-value depends on the measurement of coupling coefficient (β) strongly. Therefore, it is essential not to miss the β measurement for the precise measurement in V.T. On the other hand, as for C.T., the change of parameter (Kt), which is related to the evaluation of accelerating gradient, was used. As the result of the data analysis for Kt, the error was estimated to be 6%, and is related to the cavity performance degradation from V.T. to C.T. In this paper, the detailed data analysis and error estimation will be presented. | ||

| WEPMB017 | High Gradient Cavity Performance in STF-2 Cryomodule for the ILC at KEK | 2158 |
|
||
| The high power test for STF-2 cryomodule has completed successfully in 2015. Before cooldown of cryomodule, at first, the input coupler conditioning at room temperature is done with detuned cavities. After cooldown, the cavity conditioning, which is the main part in the performance test, is done by monitoring the radiation level measured at three locations around the cryomodule, and the heating and RF output at two HOM (Higher Order Mode) couplers. Consequently, it became clear the average accelerating gradient is 30 MV/m for STF-2 cryomodule (39 MV/m at max. and 15 MV/m at min.), and the second cavity string with four cavities had the significant performance degradation by heavy field emission due to the additional clean room work in the STF tunnel. As the following next steps, there are the LFD (Lorenz Force Detuning) measurement, LFD compensation by piezo, and long run for check of stable operation at high gradient. In the long run around 32 MV/m, each cavity without degradation showed the stable operation with the successful LFD compensation by piezo and RF feedback system. In this paper, the detailed test result will be presented. | ||

| WEPMB024 | Study on Nondestructive Inspections for Super-conducting Cavity | 2174 |
|

Funding: The work is supported by Photon and Quantum Basic Research Coordinated Development Program from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, Japan. We have been studying nondestructive inspections for super-conducting spoke cavities. The temperature mapping (T-map) and X-ray mapping (X-map) are powerful inspection methods to locate a hot spot during the vertical RF tests. There would be a defect under the hot spot and the defect may be the cause of a quench. Our XT-map system (a combined system of T-map and X-map) has a high resolution in space. Because the huge amount of sensor signals are multiplexed at a hi-speed scanning rate in the vicinity of the sensors, the small number of signal lines makes the installation process easy and reduces the system complexity. Our XT-map got useful results on finding a defect in vertical RF tests of International Linear collider super-conducting cavity. The XT-map system is useful as low cost nondestructive inspections for superconducting spoke cavity. The study will be reported. progresses will be reported. |
