MOPMB006 | First Tests of SuperKEKB Luminosity Monitors during 2016 Single Beam Commissioning | luminosity, simulation, scattering, background | 81 |
|
|||
The SuperKEKB e+e− collider aims to reach a very high luminosity of 8 1035 cm-2s−1, using highly focused ultra-low emittance bunches colliding every 4ns. Fast luminosity monitoring is required for luminosity feedback and optimisation in presence of dynamic imperfections. The aimed relative precision is about 10-3 in 1ms, which can be in principle achieved thanks to the very large cross-section of the radiative Bhabha process at zero degree scattering angle. Diamond, Cherenkov and scintillator sensors are to be placed just outside the beam pipe, downstream of the interaction point in both rings, at locations with event rates consistent with the aimed precision and small enough backgrounds from single-beam particle losses. The initial configuration installed for the 2016 "phase 1" single beam commissioning will be described, including the sensors, mechanical setup, readout electronics and first stage DAQ. Preliminary measurements and analysis of beam gas Bremsstrahlung loss data collected with the luminosity monitors will be reported and compared with a detailed simulation, for several experimental conditions during the SuperKEKB commissioning. | |||

MOPMB008 | Modeling and Experimental Studies of Beam Halo at ATF2 | scattering, coupling, damping, optics | 88 |
|
|||
The Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2) at KEK is a prototype of the final focus system for the next generation of Future Linear Colliders(FCL). It aims to focus the beams to tens of nanometer transverse sizes and to provide stability at the few nm level. Achieving these goals requires modelling, measuring and suppressing of the transverse beam halo before the interaction point (IP). This paper presents a beam tail/halo generator based on realistic model and the investigation of vertical and horizontal beam tail/halo distribution at ATF2. | |||

MOPMB011 | ROSE, Measuring the Full 4D Transverse Beam Matrix of Ion Beams | emittance, ion, coupling, detector | 98 |
|
|||
A ROtating System for Emittance measurements ROSE, to measure the full 4 dimensional transverse beam matrix of an ion beam has been developed and commissioned. Different ion beams behind the HLI at GSI have been used in two commissioning beam times. All technical aspects of ROSE have been tested, ROSE has been benchmarked against existing emittance scanners for horizontal and vertical projections, and the method, hard-, and software to measure the 4D beam matrix has been upgraded, refined, and successfully commissioned. The inter plane correlations of the HLI beam have been measured, yet as no significant initial correlations were found to be present, controlled coupling of the beam by using a skew triplet has been applied and confirmed with ROSE. The next step is to use ROSE to measure and remove the known inter plane correlations of a uranium beam before SIS18 injection. | |||

MOPMB012 | A High-Energy-Scrapersystem for the S-DALINAC Extraction - Design and Installation | electron, extraction, linac, dipole | 101 |
|
|||
Funding: *Funded by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft under grant No. SFB 634 The superconducting Darmstadt linear electron accelerator (S-DALINAC) of the Institute for Nuclear Physics at Technische Universität Darmstadt delivers electron beams in cw-mode with energies up to 130 MeV. The accelerator consists of a 10-MeV injector and a 30-MeV main linac where superconducting 3-GHz microwave cavities are operated at a temperature of 2 K for beam acceleration. With three recirculation beamlines the main linac can be used up to four times. To improve the energy spread and the energy stability of the beam a new scrapersystem has been developed and installed. It changes the extraction beam line into a dispersion-conserving chicane consisting of four dipole magnets and three scrapers. The system includes scraping of x- and y-halo in two positions as well as improving and stabilizing energy spread on a dispersive part. We will present the design of the system and report on its installation into the accelerator complex. |

MOPMB024 | Electron Cloud Measurements at J-PARC Main Ring | electron, detector, proton, extraction | 137 |
|
|||
Electron cloud instability is presented in most of the high intensity proton rings. During the Slow beam extraction (SX) mode at Main Ring of J-PARC, signals related with its formation were observed. An electron cloud detector is installed downstream of the ElectroStatic Septum (ESS), to measure the electron signal. Additionally, scintillation detector with photomultiplier, a proportional counter and photo-diode were set closely to the electron cloud detector to observe the beam lost. This paper presents the measurements of the electron cloud and some of the conditions which support its creation, for instance the signal of lost particle from the beam loss monitors, the residual gas in the vacuum duct by using vacuum pressure gauges, etc. | |||

MOPMB026 | Frequency and Time Domain Measurement of Coherent Transition Radiation | electron, laser, radiation, polarization | 143 |
|
|||
Ultrashort electron beams are essential for light sources and time-resolved measurements. Electron beams can emit terahertz (THz) pulses using coherent transition radiation (CTR). Michelson interferometer is one of can-didates for analyzing the pulse width of an electron beam based on frequency-domain analysis. Recently, electron beam measurement using a photoconductive antenna (PCA) based on time-domain analysis has been investi-gated. In this paper, to improve beam diagnostics of ul-trashort electron beam, investigation of characteristics of a PCA for generation and frequency and time-domain measurement of THz pulses was conducted.

MOPMB029 | Development Status of Linear Focal Cherenkov Ring Camera | electron, laser, photon, experiment | 152 |
|
|||
Linear focal Cherenkov ring camera (LFC-Camera) has been developed for single shot measurement of longitudinal phase space distribution of quasi-relativistic electron beam, where the electron's velocity still depends on its energy. The LFC-camera employs velocity dependence of opening angle of Cherenkov light produced by electron beam to observe its energy (momentum) distribution. Since the Cherenkov light contains the time information if the radiator medium is thin enough, we can get the longitudinal phase space distribution measuring both time and energy spectra simultaneously using a streak camera. We employ a thin silica aerogel with water-free hydrophobic treatment as Cherenkov radiator. We have evaluated characteristics of the silica aerogel radiator, and demonstration of the LFC-camera at a beam diagnosis section of t-ATCS is being proceeded. | |||

MOPMB039 | Design of Bunch Length Measurement System at the IRFEL Using a Martin-Puplett Interferometer | radiation, electron, detector, polarization | 178 |
|
|||
Funding: Supported by the National Science Foundation of China (11575181, 11175173) Electron bunch length measurement is of great significance for optimizing IRFEL performance. An optical autocorrelation system using coherent transition radiation (CTR) would be set up to measure the electron bunch length at the IRFEL. CTR can be occurred when short electron bunches traverse a vacuum-metal interface. A Martin-Puplett interferometer allowed measurement of the autocorrelation of the CTR signal. The basic principle and the main components of Martin-Puplett interferometer are elaborated in this paper. |

MOPMB042 | Design and Simulation of Button Beam Position Monitor for IR-FEL* | FEL, simulation, electron, electronics | 187 |
|
|||
Funding: * Supported by the National Science Foundation of China (11575181, 11175173) A new button-type beam position monitor(BPM) was designed for the IR-FEL project. Firstly, the longitudinal size of BPM needs to be short enough to save space because the entire machine of IR-FEL is very compact. And in the matter of installation problem, all four electrodes are deviated 30 degrees from the horizontal axis. Then, according to these two limited conditions and beam parameters, we builded up a simple model and did some simulated calculations to ensure a good performance of position resolution, which should be better than 50μm. The simulations include an estimation of induced signals in both time and frequency domains, horizontal and vertical sensitivities, mapping figures and so on. This button BPM will be manufactured in the near future and then we can do some off-line experiments to test it. # Corresponding author (email: bgsun@ustc.edu.cn) |

MOPMR023 | Surface Characterization and Field Emission Measurements of Copper Samples inside a Scanning Electron Microscope | electron, controls, experiment, radio-frequency | 283 |
|
|||
Vacuum breakdown in normal-conducting accelerating structures is a limiting factor for high gradient acceleration. Many aspects of the physics governing the breakdown process and its onset are yet to be fully understood. At Uppsala University we address these questions with an in-situ experimental setup mounted in an environmental scanning electron microscope. It consists of a piezo motor driven tungsten needle and a sample surface mounted on a piezo stage, allowing for nano-meter 3D-position control. One of the piezo motors controls the needle-sample gap while the two other scan across the surface. A DC-voltage up to 1 kV is applied across the gap and field emission currents from a copper surface are measured with an electrometer. Here we present the setup and some initial results. | |||

MOPMR027 | Employing Beam-Gas Interaction Vertices for Transverse Profile Measurements | detector, emittance, luminosity, real-time | 296 |
|
|||
Interactions of high-energy beam particles with residual gas offer a unique opportunity to measure the beam profile in a non-intrusive fashion. Such a method was successfully pioneered* at the LHCb experiment using a silicon microstrip vertex detector. During the recent Large Hadron Collider shutdown at CERN, a demonstrator Beam-Gas Vertexing system based on eight scintillating-fibre modules was designed**, constructed and installed on Ring 2 to be operated as a pure beam diagnostics device. The detector signals are read out and collected with LHCb-type front-end electronics and a DAQ system consisting of a CPU farm. Tracks and vertices will be reconstructed to obtain a beam profile in real time. Here, first commissioning results are reported. The advantages and potential for future applications of this technique are discussed.

MOPMR046 | Characterizing Supersonic Gas Jet-based Beam Profile Monitors | ion, simulation, diagnostics, electron | 357 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by EU under contracts 215080 and 289191, Helmholtz Association (VH-NG-328) and STFC under the Cockcroft Institute core grant ST/G008248/1. The next generation of high power, high intensity accelerators requires non-invasive diagnostics, particularly beam profile monitors. Residual gas-based diagnostics such as ionization beam profile or beam induced fluorescence monitors have been used to replace commonly used scintillating screens. At the Cockcroft Institute an alternative technique using a supersonic gas jet, shaped into a 45o curtain screen, was developed. It has already demonstrated its superior performance in terms of resolution and signal-to-noise ratio in comparison with residual gas monitors in experimental studies. The performance of this type of monitor depends on the achievable jet homogeneity and quality. Using a movable vacuum gauge as a scanner, the dynamic characteristics of the jet are studied. In this paper we also give an analysis of the resolution for this monitor in detail from the theory and ion drift simulation. |

MOPMR052 | Single-shot Bunch-by-Bunch Horizontal Beam Size Measurements using a Gated Camera at CesrTA | electron, positron, ion, synchrotron-radiation | 364 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by NSF NSF PHY-1416318, PHYS-1068662, PHYS-1535696 A visible-light beam size monitor has been built and commissioned to measure transverse beam profiles at CESR-TA*. In order to eliminate beam jitter and to study bunch-by-bunch beam dynamics, a fast-gating camera has been utilized to measure single bunch transverse beam profiles. The minimum camera gate width is ~ 3ns which allows us to resolve single bunch beam dynamics along a CesrTA bunch train. Using single bunch interferometry at different bunch currents, we found that the horizontal beam sizes measured by gated camera are consistently less than those measured by a conventional CCD camera, demonstrating the elimination of turn-by-turn beam jitter with single shot capability. By stepping the camera trigger delay, we collected transverse beam profile images from each bunch in a 14ns-spacing 30-bunch train. The horizontal motion of each bunch as well as the horizontal beam size increases dramatically along an electron train but not along positron bunch trains under the same machine condition. The difference in single bunch horizontal dynamics may be a signature for the difference between electron cloud build-up for positron bunch trains versus ions present for electron bunch trains. * S.T.

MOPMR056 | Single-shot THz Spectrometer for Measurement of RF Breakdown in mm-wave Accelerators | detector, radiation, alignment, laser | 374 |
|
|||
Funding: This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of High Energy Physics, under contract DE-SC0013684 We present a new instrument designed to detect RF pulse shortening caused by vacuum RF breakdown in mm-wave particle accelerators. RF breakdown limits the performance of high gradient RF accelerators. To understand the properties of these breakdowns, it is necessary to have diagnostics that reliably detect RF breakdowns. In X-band or S-band accelerators, RF breakdowns are detected by measuring RF pulse shortening, vacuum burst, or, if current monitors are available, spikes in the field-emitted currents. In mm-wave accelerators, all of these methods are difficult to use. In our experiments, we could not measure RF pulse shortening directly with a crystal detector because the RF pulse is very short'just a few nanoseconds'and changes in the measured signal were masked by RF amplitude jitter. To overcome this limitation, we built a single-shot spectrometer with a frequency range of 117-125 GHz and a resolution of 0.1 GHz. The spectrometer should be able to measure the widening of the spectrum caused by the shortening of nanosecond-long pulses. We present design considerations, first experimental results obtained at FACET, and planned future improvements for the spectrometer. |

MOPMR060 | C-Band Deflecting Cavity for Bunch Length Measurement of 2.5 MeV Electron Beam | cavity, electromagnetic-fields, coupling, simulation | 386 |
|
|||
The C-band deflecting cavity designed last year is finished. In this paper, the RF measurement of the cavity is introduced. After tuning, it works well at 5.712GHz with a coupling factor degree around 1.05. And we measured the electromagnetic field with bead-pull method. The flatness of the magnetic field is around 0.9, which is not ideal but meet the requirements of the bunch length measurement. And we propose a method of tuning to make sure both frequency and field flatness. | |||

MOPMW004 | Realization and High Power Tests of Damped C-Band Accelerating Structures for the ELI-NP Linac | ion, HOM, klystron, damping | 399 |
|
|||
The ELI-NP C-Band structures are 1.8 m long travelling wave accelerating structures, quasi-constant gradient, with a field phase advance per cell of 2pi/3. They operate at a repetition rate of 100 Hz and, because of the multi-bunch operation, they have been designed with a dipole HOM damping system to avoid beam break-up (BBU). The structures have symmetric input and output couplers and integrate, in each cell, a waveguide HOM damping systems with silicon carbide RF absorbers. An optimization of the electromagnetic and mechanical design has been done to simplify the fabrication and to reduce their cost. After the first full scale prototype successfully tested at the nominal gradient of 33 MV/m, the production of the twelve structures started. In the paper we illustrate the main design criteria, the realization process and the high power test results. | |||

MOPMW005 | Design of Linac with the New Gaskets Clamping Fabrication Technique | coupling, impedance, linac, gun | 403 |
|
|||
Recently, a new technique for the realization of high gradient accelerating structures based on the use of gaskets without brazing processes, has been successfully tested at high power on a 1.6 cells RF gun (D. Alesini, et al, PRST 18, 02001, 2015). The new technique developed at the Laboratories of Frascati of the INFN (Italy) in the framework of the SPARC_LAB project has been also adopted for the ELI-NP RF gun. The use of the special gaskets that simultaneously guarantee the vacuum seal and a perfect RF contact allow to avoid the brazing process, strongly reducing the cost, the realization time and the risk of failure. Moreover, without copper annealing due to the brazing process, it is possible, in principle, to decrease the breakdown rate increasing, at the same time, the maximum achievable gradient. The extension of this new fabrication process to complex LINAC structures is the next step on the application of this new technique on particle accelerator. In the paper, we discuss how to extend this process to S-band and C-band Travelling Wave accelerating structures illustrating their electromagnetic design and their mechanical realization. | |||

MOPMW025 | Vacuum RF Breakdown of Accelerating Cavities in Multi-Tesla Magnetic Fields | cavity, operation, Windows, electron | 444 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by Fermilab Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359. Ionization cooling of intense muon beams requires the operation of high-gradient, normal-conducting RF structures within multi-Tesla magnetic fields. The application of strong magnetic fields has been shown to lead to an increase in vacuum RF breakdown. This phenomenon imposes operational (i.e. gradient) limitations on cavities in ionization cooling channels, and has a bearing on the design and operation of other RF structures as well, such as photocathodes and klystrons. We present recent results from Fermilab's MuCool Test Area (MTA), in which 201 and 805 MHz cavities were operated at high power both with and without the presence of multi-Tesla magnetic fields. We present an analysis of damage due to breakdown in these cavities, as well as measurements related to dark current and their relation to a conceptual model describing breakdown phenomena. |

MOPMW040 | Electron Beam Excitation of a Surface Wave in mm-Wave Open Accelerating Structures | electron, detector, experiment, simulation | 494 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by the US DOE under contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. As part of research on the physics of rf breakdowns we performed experiments with high gradient traveling-wave mm-wave accelerating structures. The accelerating structures are open, composed of two identical halves separated by an adjustable gap. The electromagnetic fields are excited by an ultra-relativistic electron beam. We observed that a confined travelling-wave mode exists in half of the accelerating structure. The experiments were conducted at FACET facility at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. Depending on the gap width, the accelerating structure had beam-synchronous frequencies that vary from 90 to 140 GHz. When we opened the gap by more than half wavelength the synchronous wave remains trapped. Its behavior is consistent with the so called "surface wave". We characterized this beam-wave interaction by several methods: measurement of the radiated rf energy with the pyro-detector, measurement of the spectrum with an interferometer, measurement of the beam deflection by using the beam position monitors and profile monitor. |

MOPMW041 | Measurements of RF Breakdowns in Beam Driven mm-Wave Accelerating Structures | electron, experiment, detector, collider | 497 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by the US DOE under contract DE-AC02-76SF00515 We studied the physics and properties of rf breakdowns in high gradient traveling-wave accelerating structures at 100 GHz. The structures are open, made of two halves with a gap in between. The rf fields were excited in the structure by an ultra-relativistic electron beam generated by the FACET facility at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. We observed rf breakdowns generated in the presence of GV/m scale electric fields. We varied the rf fields excited by the FACET bunch by moving structure relative to the beam and by changing the gap between structure halves. Reliable breakdowns detectors allowed us to measure the rf breakdown rate at these different rf parameters. We measured radiated rf energy with a pyro-detector. When the beam was off-axis, we observed beam deflection in the beam position monitors and on the screen of a magnetic spectrometer. The measurements of the deflection allowed us to verify our calculation of the accelerating gradient. |

MOPMW043 | Overview of High Power Vacuum Dry RF Load Designs | linac, klystron, accelerating-gradient, interface | 504 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by US Department of Energy under contract DE-AC02-76SF00515 A specific feature of RF linacs based on the pulsed traveling wave (TW) mode of operation is that only a portion of the RF energy is used for the beam acceleration. The residual RF energy has to be terminated into an RF load. Higher accelerating gradients require higher RF sources and RF loads, which can stably terminate the residual RF power. This overview will outline vacuumed RF loads only. A common method to terminate multi-MW RF power is to use circulated water (or other liquid) as an absorbing medium. A solid dielectric interface (a high quality ceramic) is required to separate vacuum and liquid RF absorber mediums. Using such RF load approaches in TW linacs is troubling because there is a fragile ceramic window barrier and a failure could become catastrophic for linac vacuum and RF systems. Traditional loads comprising of a ceramic disk have limited peak and average power handling capability and are therefore not suitable for high gradient TW linacs. This overview will focus on 'vacuum dry' or 'all-metal' loads that do not employ any dielectric interface between vacuum and absorber. The first prototype is an original design of RF loads for the Stanford Two-Mile Accelerator. |

MOPMY007 | Mechanical Design and 3-D Coupled RF, Thermal-Structural Analysis of Normal Conducting 704 MHz and 2.1 GHz Cavities for LEReC Linac | cavity, simulation, software, operation | 525 |
|
|||
Funding: Work is supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the US DOE. 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. |

MOPMY032 | Design and Upgrade the Safety System for the SRF Electronic System at the Taiwan Photon Source | SRF, cryogenics, storage-ring, PLC | 567 |
|
|||
This paper presents some new designs and upgrades of a SRF interlock and electronic system. Based on the experience from Taiwan Light Source (TLS) that uses one Cornell-type superconducting cavity made by ACCEL in the storage-ring RF system [1], in the new TPS SRF system [3] home-made LLRF and SRF electronics [4] are constructed for two KEKB-type superconducting cavities [2] that are installed in the storage ring of circumference 518 m. For reliable operation of the TPS SRF system, enhanced safety functions of the system were added to improve the original SRF system in TLS. The improved functions can provide both the operators and the RF systems with a safer environment and clearer messages for trouble-shooting and malfunction status indications. | |||

MOPMY036 | High-harmonic mm-Wave Frequency Multiplication using a Gyrocon-like Device | cavity, electron, coupling, plasma | 579 |
|
|||
Funding: This project was funded by U.S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC02-76SF00515, and the National Science Foundation. Traditional linear interaction RF sources, such as Klystrons and Traveling Wave Tubes, fail to produce significant power levels at millimeter wavelengths. This is because their critical dimensions are small compared to the wavelength, and the output power scales as the square of the wavelength. We present a vacuum tube technology, where the device size is inherently larger than the operating wavelength. We designed a low–voltage mm–wave source, with an output interaction circuit based on a spherical sector cavity. This device was configured as a phased-locked frequency multiplier. We report the design and cold test results of a proof-of-principle fifth harmonic frequency multiplier with an output frequency of 57.12 GHz. |

MOPMY037 | GaN Class-F Power Amplifier for Klystron Replacement | klystron, electron, operation, controls | 583 |
|
|||
Funding: This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy (award No. DE-SC0013136) The vacuum-tube-based RF amplifiers are relatively inefficient and becoming obsolete as the RF world has been progressively converting to solid state technology. Currently, the JLAB upgrade program requires 340 amplifiers capable of 8 kW CW at 1497 MHz while operating at more than 55-60% efficiency to replace their klystrons. Here we explore the possibility of a klystron replacement employing high electron mobility packaged GaN transistors applied in an array of Class-F amplifiers. The inputs and outputs of the many modules needed to make a complete amplifier are connected via precise, in-phase, low-loss, broadband, combiners-dividers. We describe early prototypes of the amplifiers as well as the combiners-dividers and discuss the design features and challenges of such a scheme. This approach can be applied to other national facilities and also for replacement of the klystrons in Middle Energy Electron-Ion Collider which requires about 1.8 MW CW power in total to be produced at 952.6 MHz frequency including 2x12.5 kW power for "crabbing" and 0.53 MW for electron cooling. |

MOPOR007 | Local Impedance Measurements at ALBA from Turn-by-Turn Acquisition | impedance, insertion, lattice, optics | 598 |
|
|||
A transverse impedance source manifests itself, among other ways, by producing a small defocusing kick which depends on the beam bunch charge. By repeating optics measurements for different bunch charges, it is possible to disentangle the contribution produced by each impedance source from the dominating focusing effects given by the machine optics. But hunting for such faint defocusing effects poses strong requirements on the precision and sensibility of the measurements, and slow machine drifts or different thermal conditions shall be avoided. In this report, we present a novel method to assess in a fast and precise manner machine optics for different bunch charges using BPM turn-by-turn data and hybrid filling patterns. Finally, measurements for different ALBA machine components like scrapers and In-vacuum undulators are compared with simulation results. | |||

MOPOR008 | Beam Induced RF Heating in LHC in 2015 | impedance, operation, injection, monitoring | 602 |

Following the recurrent beam induced RF issues that perturbed LHC operation during LHC Run 1, a series of actions were put in place to minimize the risk that similar issues would occur in LHC Run 2: longitudinal impedance reduction campaign and/or improvement of cooling for equipment that were problematic or at the limit during Run 1, stringent constraints enforced on new equipment that would be installed in the machine, tests to control the bunch length and longitudinal distribution, additional monitoring of temperature, new monitoring tools and warning chains. This contribution reports the outcome of these actions, both successes as well as shortcomings, and details the lessons learnt for the future runs. | |||

MOPOW001 | Status of the 1.3 GeV Booster Synchrotron for Generating High Energy Gamma Rays at Tohoku University | controls, dipole, operation, booster | 701 |
|
|||
The reconstruction work of accelerator complex for the Great East Japan Earthquake in March 2011 had been conducted in Research Center of Electron Photon Science, Tohoku University. Since restoration of the user machine time in 2013, the approved beam time have been regularly implemented as scheduled. Currently, the 1.3 GeV Booster STorage (BST) ring has been well utilized to generate the high energy gamma-rays as before the disaster. The high energy gamma-rays were produced via Bremsstrahlung by inserting an internal target wire to the beam orbit after the beam acceleration. Since the user machine time was recovered, there were some improvements so far, i.e. realignment of synchrotron magnets, orbit correction in energy ramping process by updating the control of power supplies for steering magnets etc., which brought an increase of the beam current in the maximum energy. Present operational status and recent progress of beam performance in the BST ring are reported. | |||

MOPOW006 | Planning and Controlling of the Cold Accelerator Sections Installation in XFEL | status, laser, electron, free-electron-laser | 716 |
|
|||
The installation of the main linear accelerator in the 2 km European XFEL (X-Ray Free-Electron Laser) tunnel is currently under way. The accelerator consists of nine so-called cryo-strings. A typical cryo-string comprises 12 accelerator modules, which will be fed by three RF stations. Furthermore, the installation of electronic racks, cables, power and water supply etc. takes place. To enable a most effective installation of the accelerator components, planning and controlling methods, which had first been developed for the RF system work package, were adapted for the entire main linear accelerator. As a first step, a process plan was developed in cooperation with the work package leaders. On the basis of this plan, the installation process is promoted by several measures: The status of the installation is precisely registered by weekly queries which enable monitoring of the progress and feedback to everyone involved. With this information at hand, the installation process can be controlled and plan deviations can be corrected. Furthermore, the experience gained at one cryo-string is used to optimise the plan for the next cryo-string installation. | |||

Impedance could represent a limitation of running high intensity bunches in the Fermilab recycler. With high intensity upgrades foreseen, it is important to quantify the impedance. To do this, studies have been performed measuring the tune shift as a function of bunch intensity allowing the transverse impedance to be derived. | |||

MOPOY024 | Development of a 325 MHz Ladder-RFQ of the 4-Rod-Type | rfq, proton, linac, ion | 899 |
|
|||
In order to have an inexpensive alternative to 4-Vane RFQs above 200 MHz, we study the possibilities of a Ladder-RFQ. The 325 MHz RFQ is designed to accelerate protons from 95 keV to 3.0 MeV according to the design parameters of the research program with cooled antiprotons at FAIR. This particular high frequency for an RFQ creates difficulties, which are challenging in developing a cavity. In order to define a satisfactory geometrical configuration for this resonator, both from the RF and the mechanical point of view, different designs have been examined and compared. Very promising results have been reached with a ladder type RFQ, which has been investigated since 2013. Due to its geometric size the manufacturing as well as maintenance is not that complex compared with welded accelerators. The manufacturing, coppering and assembling of a 0.8 m prototype RFQ is finished. We present recent measurements of the rf-field, frequency-tuning, field flatness and the mode spectrum. | |||

The new accelerator complex Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) is now under development and construction at JINR. New complex is assumed to operate using two injectors: the Alvarez-type linac LU-20 as injector of light ions, polarized protons and deuterons and a new linac HILac of heavy ions. Now the modernization of LU-20 is also realized and old pulse DC injector is planning to replace by RFQ linac. New RFQ linac was developed and manufactured and is now under commissioning at Nuclotron injectors hall. New results of RFQ linac resonator testing and measurements, RF power load and linac testing with deuterium and carbon beam will discuss in this report. | |||

MOPOY049 | The PXIE LEBT Design Choices | ion, rfq, ion-source, solenoid | 958 |
|

Funding: Operated by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, under Contract DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy Typical front-ends of modern light-ion high-intensity accelerators typically consist of an ion source, a Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT), a Radiofrequency Quadrupole and a Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT), which is followed by the main linac accelerating structures. Over the years, many LEBTs have been designed, constructed and operated very successfully. In this paper, we present the guiding principles and compromises that lead to the design choices of the PXIE LEBT, including the rationale for a beam line that allows un-neutralized transport over a significant portion of the LEBT whether the beam is pulsed or DC. |

MOPOY051 | Manufacturing and the LLRF Tests of the SANAEM RFQ | rfq, cavity, LLRF, simulation | 964 |
|
|||
Funding: Turkish Atomic Energy Authority Turkish Atomic Energy Authority is working on building an experimental proton beamline with local resources at the Saraykoy Nuclear Research and Training Center (SANAEM). Manufacturing of the radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) was started after the beam dynamics and 3D electromagnetic simulation studies were performed. The vanes were machined with a three axis CNC machine. A CMM was used for the acceptance tests of the vanes and also for assembling. Production and assembly results were found acceptable for this cavity, the very first one developed in Turkey. Copper plating was performed by electroplating the aluminum vanes. The plated vanes were bolted and bonded with eight screws, eight pins and two different adhesives. A silver paste was used for RF sealing and a low vapor pressure epoxy was used for vacuum isolation. First LLRF tests of the RFQ were done with a bead-pull setup and a VNA. A N-type RF coupler and a pick-up were used for the LLRF tests. Phase shift method was used for the bead-pull tests. Cavity quality factor was measured with 3dB method for different RF sealing stages. This study summarizes the machining, assembling and the first LLRF tests of the SANAEM RFQ. |

MOPOY055 | Technologies for Stabilizing the Dynamic Vacuum and Charge Related Beam Loss in Heavy Ion Synchrotrons | ion, heavy-ion, synchrotron, cryogenics | 977 |
|
|||
With increasing the intensities of heavy ion beams in synchrotrons, charge related beam loss become more and more significant. In order to reduce space charge forces and to minimize the incoherent tune spread, the charge state of heavy Ions shall be lowered. Thus the cross section for charge related beam loss is further enhanced. For the FAIR project, GSI has developed a number of different technologies to stabilize the dynamic residual gas pressure and thereby to minimize charge related beam loss at high intensity heavy ion operation. Technologies suitable for such issues are, dedicated lattice structures, cold and warm ion catchers, NEG coated and cryogenic magnet chambers and cryo-adsorption pumps. | |||

MOPOY057 | The Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator (LIPAC) Design Development under the European-Japanese Collaboration | rfq, SRF, linac, cryomodule | 985 |
|
|||
The IFMIF aims to provide an accelerator-based, D-Li neutron source to produce high energy neutrons at sufficient intensity. Part of the BA agreement (Japan-EURATOM), the goal of the IFMIF/EVEDA project is to work on the engineering design of IFMIF and to validate the main technological challenges which includes a 125mA CW D+ accelerator up to 9 MeV mainly designed and manufactured in Europe. The components are in an advanced stage of manufacturing. The first components which allow the production of a 140 mA-100 keV deuteron beam have been delivered, installed and under commissioning at Rokkasho. The second phase (100 keV to 5 MeV) will end by March 2017. The third phase (short pulse) and forth phase (cw) will be the integrated commissioning of the LIPAc up to 9 MeV. The duration of the project has been recently extended up to end 2019 to allow the commissioning and operation of the whole accelerator (1MW). The aim of this paper is to give an overview of the LIPAc, currently under commissioning in Japan, to outline the engineering design and the development of the key components, as well as the expected outcomes of the engineering work, associated with the experimental program. | |||

MOPOY058 | Removing Known SPS Intensity Limitations for High Luminosity LHC Goals | impedance, simulation, emittance, shielding | 989 |
|
|||
In preparation of the SPS as an LHC injector its impedance was significantly reduced in 1999 - 2000. A new SPS impedance reduction campaign is planned now for the High Luminosity (HL)-LHC project, which requires bunch intensities twice as high as the nominal one. One of the known intensity limitations is a longitudinal multi-bunch instability with a threshold 3 times below this operational intensity. The instability is presently cured using the 4th harmonic RF system and controlled emittance blow-up, but reaching the HL-LHC parameters cannot be assured without improving the machine impedance. Recently the impedance sources responsible for this instability were identified and implementation of their shielding and damping is foreseen during the next long shutdown (2019 - 2020) in synergy with two other important upgrades: amorphous carbon coating of (part of) the vacuum chamber against the e-cloud effect and rearrangement of the 200 MHz RF system. In this paper the strategy of impedance reduction is presented together with beam intensity achievable after its realisation. The potential effect of other proposals on remaining limitations is also considered. | |||

TUZB02 | Challenge of In-vacuum and Cryogenic Undulator Technologies | undulator, cryogenics, radiation, permanent-magnet | 1080 |
|
|||
An in-vacuum undulator (IVU) opens the utilization of high-brilliance X-rays in the medium energy storage rings. The development of a short-period undulator with low phase error becomes important to bring X-ray into a new unprecedented brilliant light source in an ultimate storage ring (USR). NdFeB or PrFeB cryogenic permanent magnet undulators (CPMUs) with a short period have been developed worldwide to obtain high brilliance of undulator radiation. A CPMU has high resistance against beam-induced heat load and allow to operate at a narrow gap. In a low emittance or ultimate storage ring, not only the performance of an undulator but the choice of the lattice functions is very important to obtain high bril-liance of synchrotron radiation. The optimum betatron functions and zero dispersion function shall be given for a straight section at IVU/CPMUs. In this paper, the relevant factors and design issues for IVU/CPMU will be discussed. Many technological challenges of a short-period undulator associated with beam induced-heat load, phase errors, and the deformation of in-vacuum girders will also be presented herein. | |||

TUOCB01 | First Commissioning of the SuperKEKB Vacuum System | electron, photon, status, positron | 1086 |
|
|||
The SuperKEKB, an electron-positron collider with asymmetric energies in KEK, has started the first commissioning with beams this year. One of major tasks in the commissioning is the beam scrubbing of new beam pipes in order to increase the beam lifetime and to decrease the background noise of the particle detector in the coming physics run. The temperatures and the vacuum pressures of new vacuum components, such as the bellows chambers, gate valves and the beam collimators, should be checked in this run. The decrease rate in the vacuum pressure are measured to estimate the vacuum scrubbing effect. Reported here will be the results obtained during the first commissioning and the present status of the vacuum system. | |||

TUPMB012 | Optimization of the Field Integrals of Two Small Gap IDs for CLS | multipole, wiggler, undulator, synchrotron-radiation | 1133 |
|
|||
An in-vacuum undulator and an in-vacuum wiggler have been developed for CLS at SSRF recently. The period lengths of the undulator and the wiggler are 20mm and 80mm respectively. Both IDs have the minimum gap of 5.2mm. The field integrals were measured for each magnet block with two poles and were sorted in-situ as they were installed on to the girders. Finally the field integrals of the undulator and the wiggler were shimmed by using the 'Magic Fingers' at the ends with a special algorithm. This paper reports the procedure and the results of the measurement and the optimization for the field integrals. | |||

Additionally there is a mode of operation for experiments in the ring. Beams for all modes of operation are injected through one transfer channel. Extremely high acceptance of the ring (240 mm*mrad) leads to large apertures of all magnetic elements including the septum magnet. Meanwhile planned parameters of the magnetic field and magnetic field quality are comparatively strict. The present state of the design of the pulsed injection septum for the CR is presented in this article together with the concept of the injection system. | |||

TUPMB026 | Magnet System for a Compact Microtron | microtron, permanent-magnet, electron, operation | 1164 |
|
|||
Funding: Funded by DOE SBIR grant DE-SC0013795 A compact microtron can be an effective gamma source that can be transported to locations outside the laboratory. As part of a Phase I project we have studied a portable microtron that can accelerate electrons with energies of 6 MeV and above as a source for gamma and neutron production. The mass of the magnet is a significant contribution to the overall mass of the system. This paper will discuss conceptual designs for both permanent magnet and electromagnet systems. The choice of mictrotron RF frequency range is determined by the application requirements. The RF frequency influences the size of the microtron magnet and consequently its weight. We have looked at how the design would vary with the different frequency configurations. |

TUPMB034 | Design and Manufacture of a Superconducting Solenoid for D-Line of J-PARC Muon Facility | solenoid, operation, interface, radiation | 1177 |
|
|||
A superconducting solenoid for J-PARC muon facility was newly designed and manufactured. High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) has been operating the J-PARC Muon Science Establishment (MUSE) since 2008. Among its four muon beam lines, the decay muon line (D-Line) has been extracting and providing surface muons and positive decay muons up to a momentum of 50 MeV/c for various users, utilizing a superconducting solenoid. The D-Line as well as the other J-PARC facility suffered severe damages from the earthquake on March 11, 2011. It necessitated rebuilding of the damaged superconducting solenoid. New design parameter of the solenoid is as follows: length of solenoid: 6 m, diameter of warm bore: 0.2 m, magnetic field of bore center: 3.5 T, rated current: 415 A, superconducting wire: NbTi/Cu, quench protection: quench back heaters. The six-meter-long solenoid consists of twelve pieces of 0.5-meter-long superconducting coils. The entire solenoid is forced-indirectly cooled by supercritical helium flow. This report describes the design and manufacturing process of the newly built superconducting solenoid for D-Line of J-PARC muon facility. | |||

TUPMB049 | Development of Separator Cooling System for Helium | cryogenics, experiment, radiation, controls | 1209 |
|
|||
A helium phase separator with a condenser is under fabrication and assembled at National Synchrotron Radiation Research Centre (NSRRC). The objective of a helium phase separator with its condenser is to separate two-phase helium flow and to re-condense vaporized gaseous helium with a cryocooler of Gifford-McMahon type. We developed a 100 litre (ltr) helium phase separator with a small heat loss as a prototype. The experimental results for the total cooling capacity of the phase separator are 0.73 W at 1.67 bara, which includes the effect of thermal conduction and thermal radiation from the environment. The helium liquefaction rate is 2 ltr/day with a 100 ltr vessel. The mechanism of heat transfer in phase separator was investigated and discussed. This paper presents the experiment of helium liquefaction process of 100 ltr separator with condenser, which was a key component of the helium phase separator. | |||

TUPMB050 | Development of Multi-channel Line for the NSRRC Cryogenic System | cryogenics, radiation, photon, synchrotron | 1212 |
|
|||
For the past few years, the technology of X-ray photon source is getting more and more advanced, more and more countries are now striving to build the biggest synchrotron facility to meet its' need. In Taiwan, the construction of an electron accelerator with the energy of up to 3.5 GeV is constructed to fulfill the strong demands for an X-ray photon source with high brilliance and flux. Thus, to let the TPS be under stable operation, the cryogenic system is therefore very important. The refrigerant of the TPS Cryogenic System is Liquid Helium, to maintain liquid helium in its state, the temperature has to be maintained under 4.5K, however to let liquid helium turn into gas helium, only 20 W is needed. Therefore, the Multi-Channel Line is developed in our system to prevent heat from conduction in and letting liquid helium vaporize. Several mechanical parts have been designed to reduce heat loss and meet its needs, for example the Spacer. The paper presents a design methodology of long multi-channel helium cryogenic transfer lines. It describes some aspects thermo-mechanical calculation, supporting structure and contraction protection. | |||

TUPMR002 | Suppression of Concomitant Flow of Charged Particles in the Tandem Accelerator with Vacuum Insulation | ion, electron, proton, neutron | 1225 |
|
|||
Funding: The study was supported by the Grants from the Russian Science Foundation (Project no. 14-32-00006) and the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics. A source of epithermal neutrons based on a tandem accelerator with vacuum insulation for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy of malignant tumors was proposed and constructed. Stationary proton beam with 2 MeV energy, 1.6 mA current, 0.1% energy monochromaticity and 0.5% current stability was obtained*. The flow of charged particles accompanying the accelerated ion beam was detected and measured**. To suppress this concomitant flow cooled diaphragm, cryopump and the electrostatic ring were installed in the input of accelerator. The surface of the vacuum vessel was covered with netting to suppress secondary electron emission. These steps have reduced the flow of charged particles 25 % of the ion beam to 0.5 % and to increase the current proton beam 3 times - up to 4.5 mA. The paper presents the results of research and declares plans to use the accelerator for the BNCT. * D. Kasatov, et al. JINST 9 (2014) P12016. ** D. Kasatov, et al.

Funding: The study was supported by the Grants from the Russian Science Foundation (Project no. 14-32-00006) and the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics In BINP neutron source for boron neutron capture therapy of cancer based on the vacuum insulation tandem accelerator and lithium target for neutron generation was constructed. After optimization of the injection of negative hydrogen ions and modernization of the stripping target 1.6 mA 2 MeV proton beam was obtained. Improvements of the accelerator to suppress accompanying electron current were introduced, and after making changes to protection system of high voltage power supply a stable proton beam with a current of 4.5 mA was obtained. Analysis of the experimental results shows that the beam is accelerated without losses. Obtaining of proton beam with the current of more than 3 mA offers the prospects of using of accelerators for BNCT in cancer clinics. |

TUPMR006 | The ELENA Electron Cooler | electron, gun, solenoid, antiproton | 1236 |
|
|||
The ELENA (Extra Low ENergy Antiproton) ring will deliver antiprotons at an energy of just 100 keV to experiments aiming to precisely measure the properties of anti-hydrogen atoms. A crucial component of this decelerator ring is the electron cooler which will be used to counter the beam blow-up as the antiproton energy is reduced from 5.3 MeV to 100 keV. The electron cooler will operate at energies below 350 eV in a longitudinal guiding field of 100 G such that the perturbations to the ring can be easily corrected. We will present the design considerations as well as the production status of the cooler. | |||

TUPMR029 | Advanced EBIS Charge Breeder for Rare Isotope Science Project | electron, ion, gun, solenoid | 1304 |
|
|||
Rare Isotope Science Project (RISP) is under development in Korea to provide wide variety of intense rare isotope beams for nuclear physics experiments and applied science using both Isotope Separation On-Line (ISOL) and In-Flight Fragmentation (IF) techniques. Electron Beam Ion Source (EBIS) charge breeder is a key element to efficiently accelerate rare isotope ion beams produced by ISOL method. These beams will be charge-bred by an EBIS charge breeder to a charge-to-mass ratio (q/A) ≥ - and accelerated by linac post-accelerator to energies of 18.5 MeV/u. Utilization of 3 A electron beam and 6 T superconducting solenoid with wide (8) warm bore diameter will allow high efficient and fast charge breeding of rare isotope beams with exceptional degree of purity. The main features of RISP EBIS charge breeder design and current status of the project will be presented and discussed. | |||

TUPMR033 | Low Emittance Growth in a LEBT with Un-neutralized Section | ion, ion-source, emittance, solenoid | 1317 |
|
|||
Funding: Operated by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, under Contract DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy In a Low Energy Beam Transport line (LEBT), the emittance growth due to the beam's own space charge is typically suppressed by way of neutralization from either electrons or ions, which originate from ionization of the background gas. In cases where the beam is chopped, the neutralization pattern changes throughout the beginning of the pulse, causing the Twiss parameters to differ significantly from their steady state values, which, in turn, may result in beam losses downstream. For a modest beam perveance, there is an alternative solution, in which the beam is kept un-neutralized in the portion of the LEBT that contains the chopper. The emittance can be nearly preserved if the transition to the un-neutralized section occurs where the beam exhibits low transverse tails. This report discusses the experimental realization of such a scheme at Fermilab's PXIE, where low beam emittance dilution was demonstrated |

TUPMR040 | The Development of a New Low Field Septum Magnet System for Fast Extraction in Main Ring of J-PARC | septum, operation, power-supply, extraction | 1340 |
|
|||
The J-PARC Main Ring (MR) is being upgraded to improve its beam power to the design goal of 750 kW. One important way is to reduce the repetition period from 2.48 s to 1.3 s so that the beam power can be nearly doubled. We need to improve the septum magnets for fast extraction. We are improving the magnets and their power supplies. The present magnets which is conventional type have problem in durability of septum coil by its vibration, and large leakage field. The new magnets are eddy current type. The eddy current type does not have septum coil, but has a thin plate. We expect that there is no problem in durability, we can construct the thin septum plate, the leakage field can be reduced. The output of the present power supply are pattern current which of flat top is 10 ms width, the new one is short pulse which of one is 10 us. The short pulse consists of 1st and 3rd higher harmonic. We can expect that the flatness and reproducibility of flat top current can be improved. The calorific power can be also reduced. This paper will report the field measurement results with the eddy septum magnet systems. | |||

TUPMR044 | Beam Test of the New Beamline for Radio-Isotope Production at KOMAC | target, linac, isotope-production, proton | 1349 |
|
|||
Funding: This work has been supported through KOMAC (Korea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex) operation fund of KAERI by MSIP (Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning). A high power proton linac is under operation at Korea multi-purpose accelerator complex (KOMAC). Currently, two beamlines are available and used to provide 20-MeV beam and 100-MeV beam to users from various fields. An additional 100-MeV beamline has been constructed mainly for production of radio-isotopes such as Sr-82 and Cu-67. Proton beam with the beam energy of 100 MeV and the average current of 0.6 mA is directed to the production target, which is located in a water-filled target chamber, through a beam window made of AlBeMet. The beam size at the target is designed to be about 100 mm in diameter. Installation of the beamline components including 1.5 T bending magnet and the beam diagnostic devices such as BPM and BCM is finished and beam commissioning is planned to start in early 2016. The details of newly-constructed beamline and the initial beam test results will be given in this paper. |

TUPMR053 | Initial Experience with Carbon Stripping Foils at ISIS | injection, operation, synchrotron, proton | 1378 |
|
|||
The ISIS Facility at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory is a spallation neutron and muon source based upon a 50 Hz rapid cycling synchrotron accelerating ~3×1013 protons per pulse from 70 to 800 MeV to deliver a mean beam power of 0.2 MW to two target stations. Throughout its 30 years of operation ISIS has developed aluminium oxide foils in-house for H− charge exchange injection. The manufacturing and installation processes for these foils are time consuming, radiologically dose intensive and require a high degree of skill. Commercially available carbon based foils commonly used at other facilities, have the potential to greatly simplify foil preparation and installation in addition to improving beam quality. Similar foils would also be necessary for facility upgrades which increase injection energy to withstand the higher operating temperatures. This paper describes the initial experience of carbon foils in the ISIS synchrotron including issues relating to handling and mounting foils, their performance under beam operation and plans for further development. | |||

TUPMW021 | Roman Pot Insertions in High-Intensity Beams for the CT-PPS Project at LHC | insertion, impedance, proton, luminosity | 1473 |
|
|||
The CMS-TOTEM Precision Proton Spectrometer (CT-PPS) at the LHC IP5 aims at exploring diffractive physics at high luminosity in standard LHC fills. It is based on 14 Roman Pots (RPs), designed to host tracking and time-of-flight detectors for measuring the kinematics of leading protons. To reach the physics goals, the RPs will finally have to approach the beams to distances of 15 beam σs (i.e. ~1.5 mm) or closer. After problems with showers and impedance heating in first high-luminosity RP insertions in 2012, the LS1 of LHC was used for upgrades in view of impedance minimisation and for adding new collimators to intercept RP-induced showers. In 2015 the effectiveness of these improvements was shown by successfully inserting the RPs in all LHC beam intensity steps to a first-phase distance of ~25 σs. This contribution reviews the measurements of debris showers and impedance effects, i.e. the data from Beam Loss Monitors, beam vacuum gauges and temperature sensors. The dependences of the observables on the luminosity are shown. Extrapolations to L=1034 cm-2 s-1 and smaller distances to the beam do not indicate any fundamental problems. The plans for 2016 are outlined. | |||

TUPMY017 | Laser Driven Dielectric Accelerator in the Non-relativistic Energy Region | laser, acceleration, electron, radiation | 1585 |
|
|||
Laser-driven dielectric accelerator (LDA) is suitable for delivering a submicron-size ultra-short electron beam, which is useful for studying basic processes of the radiation effect in a biological cell. Both the oblique incidence and the normal incidence configurations of LDA were studied. The oblique incidence configuration of LDA relaxes the synchronization condition as ve=¥pm c LG/¥left(¥λ+ LG n ¥sin ¥theta ¥right) and is somewhat suitable for accelerating the non-relativistic electrons. The required energy to accelerate electrons in the oblique incidence configuration is smaller than that in the normal incidence configuration by a factor of ¥cos ¥theta, where ¥theta is the incidence angle of the laser beam. Two gratings each were made of different material structure of silica ({¥rm SiO2}) were fabricated by the electron beam lithography. When a crystal silica was adopted, many large humps of several hundred nm size were observed in grooves of the grating. On the other hand, a glass silica had smoother grooves. | |||

Terahertz radiation is considered as a promising tool for a number of applications. One possible way to emit THz waves is to pass short electron bunch through a waveguide structure loaded with dielectric*. In our previous papers, we have analyzed this problem in both approximate** and rigorous*** formulation. However, we have encountered certain difficulties with calculations. In the present report, we are starting to develop another rigorous approach based on mode-matching technique and modified residue-calculus technique. We consider the radiation from the open-ended dielectrically loaded cylindrical waveguide placed inside regular cylindrical waveguide with larger radius. We present structure of reflected and transmitted modes and typical radiation patterns from the open end of larger radius waveguide. * S. Antipov et al., Appl. Phys.

Funding: Work is supported by the Grant of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (No. 15-32-20985). In recent years, the interest to radiation of moving charged particles in media with chiral properties is connected with relatively new and prospective method for diagnostics of biological objects which uses the Cherenkov radiation ' Cherenkov luminescence imaging*. Optical activity (chirality, gyrotropy) is typical or biological matter and is caused by mirrorless structure of molecules. Contrary to such gyrotropic medium as magnetized ionospheric plasma, aforementioned media are isotropic. One distributed model describing the frequency dispersion of isotropic chiral media is Condon model. In this report, we continue the investigation performed in our previous paper** where we dealt with the field produced by uniformly moving charge in infinite chiral isotropic medium. Moreover, we perform generalization of early paper***, where the problem with half-space was considered in the specific case of slow charge motion. We present typical radiation patterns in vacuum area and corresponding ellipses of polarization which allows determination of the chiral parameter of the medium. * Spinelli A.E. et al. // NIM A. 2011.

Periodic structures can be used for non-destructive diagnostics of charged particle bunches*. We consider structures which consist of thin conducting parallel wires. It is assumed that the structure period is much less than the typical wavelength under consideration. Therefore the influence of the structure on the electromagnetic field can be described with help of the averaged boundary conditions**. We consider radiation of bunches which move along the grid but transversely to wires. Unlike previous works the bunch is assumed to have essential transversal dimensions along with definite longitudinal charge distribution. In particular we analyze the effect of reflection of the surface wave from the structure edge. For all considered situations, analytical and numerical results demonstrate that analysis of the surface waves allows estimating the size and the shape of the bunch. * A.V. Tyukhtin et al., Phys.

Funding: Work is supported by the Grant from Russian Foundation for Basic Research (No. 15-02-03913). Investigation of radiation of a charged particle bunch in the presence of a large (compared with wavelengths under consideration) dielectric object can be performed using certain approximate methods. We develop here the method based on the known Stratton-Chu formulae which allows calculating the field everywhere outside the object including the Fresnel and Fraunhofer areas, as well as neighborhoods of focal points*.

TUPOR008 | Effect of the Various Impedances on Longitudinal Beam Stability in the CERN SPS | impedance, HOM, simulation, operation | 1666 |
|
|||
The High Luminosity (HL)-LHC project at CERN aims at a luminosity increase by a factor ten and one of the necessary ingredients is doubling the bunch intensity to 2.4x1011 ppb for beams with 25 ns bunch spacing. Many improvements are already foreseen in the frame of the LHC Injector Upgrade (LIU) project, but probably this intensity would still not be reachable in the SPS due to longitudinal instabilities. Recently a lot of effort went into finding the impedance sources of the instabilities. Particle simulations based on the latest SPS impedance model are now able to reproduce the measured instability thresholds and were used to determine the most critical impedance sources by removing them one by one from the model. It was found that impedance of vacuum flanges and of the already damped 630 MHz HOM of the main RF system gave for 72 bunches the comparable intensity thresholds. Possible intensity gains are defined for realistic impedance modifications and for various beam configurations (number of bunches, longitudinal emittances) and RF programs (single and double RF). The results of this study are used as a guideline for planning of a new campaign of the SPS impedance reduction. | |||

TUPOR011 | Study of Microwave Instability for SLS-2 | impedance, storage-ring, emittance, simulation | 1678 |
|
|||
An ultra-low emittance electron storage ring is under development for the Upgrade of Swiss Light Source (SLS-2). An antechamber scheme consisting of round beam channel with 10 mm inner radius is considered to accommodate the required strong quadrupole and sextupole magnets, achieve the ultra-high vacuum, and absorb the undesired synchrotron radiation. However, the small size of vacuum chamber increases the susceptibility of the beam to the impedance induced collective instabilities. We will present the preliminary study of the microwave instability for SLS-2 storage ring considering the longitudinal Resistive-Wall (RW) impedance due to three different options for the beam chamber. The microwave instability thresholds are calculated under the conditions of two possible RF frequencies (100 MHz and 500 MHz) and three different materials (aluminum, copper, and stainless steel). The influences of third-harmonic cavities are also studied. | |||

TUPOR023 | Investigation of Trapped Resonant Modes in Insertion Devices at the Australian Synchrotron | resonance, feedback, undulator, synchrotron | 1710 |
|
|||
The Australian Synchrotron light Source has 3 variable gap in-vacuum undulators (IVU) in the storage ring. Since installation, these devices have been the source of strong beam instabilities. These instabilities seem to behave as trapped resonant modes of very high Q and high frequency, although a definite source has not been identified. The presence of these instabilities has necessitated operating at unusually high chromaticity for much of the light source's operations. More recently transverse feedback has been able to control the instabilities and recent developments in diagnostics have allowed some investigation of the frequency and mode response of these resonances. The results of this investigation will be presented in this paper. | |||

TUPOR031 | Trapped Ion Effects and Mitigation During High Current Operation in the Cornell DC Photoinjector | ion, radiation, experiment, linac | 1735 |
|
|||
Funding: U.S. Department of Energy (Grant No. DE-SC0012493), National Science Foundation (Award No. NSF-DMR 0807731) The Cornell high intensity photoinjector reaches a new regime of linac beam parameters where high continuous-wave electron beam currents lead to ion trapping. Above 10 mA, we have observed beam trips that limit stable machine operation to approximately 10-15 minutes. By applying known ion clearing methods, the machine lifetime increases to at least 24 hours of continuous operation, suggesting that trapped ions are the most likely cause of the trips. In this paper we share some of our observations ion trapping in the photoinjector, as well as experimental tests of three common ion mitigation methods: clearing electrodes, beam shaking and bunch gaps. |

TUPOW003 | High Average RF Power Tests With 2 RF Vacuum Windows at PITZ | gun, operation, Windows, emittance | 1744 |
|
|||
The Photo Injector Test facility at DESY, Zeuthen site (PITZ), was built with the aim to develop and characterize electron sources for future usage at FLASH and at the European XFEL. Recently, the main focus at PITZ has been the study of gun reliability and photoinjector performance at high average power. The goal is to get stable and reliable operation with 6.4 MW peak power in the gun at 650 us RF pulse length and 10 Hz repetition rate. To achieve this, a new RF feed system with two RF windows was installed at PITZ in 2014. During this test, the old gun 4.2 with a modified back-plane design for better cathode contact has been used. In this contribution the results of the RF conditioning of gun 4.2 with a detailed interlock analysis will be reported as well as results from recent electron beam characterization. | |||

TUPOW004 | Status of the STAR Project | laser, electron, focusing, controls | 1747 |
|
|||
This paper reports on the final design and the work in progress on the STAR project (IPAC2014:WEPRO115), which is under construction at the Univ. of Calabria (Italy). The project is devoted to the construction of an advanced Thomson source of monochromatic tunable, ps-long, polarized X-ray beams, ranging from 40 up to 140 KeV . At present the buildings and main plants have been completed as the acquisition of main components: the RF photo-injector, the accelerating section, laser systems for collision and photo-cathode, RF Power Source and magnets are ready to start installation and site acceptance tests. The design of laser lines is complete and simulated by ZEMAX, aiming to minimize energy losses, optical distortions and providing a tunable experimental setup as well. The RF power network is close to be tested, it's based on a 55MW (2.5us pulse) S-band Klystron driven by a 500kV Pulse Forming Network based modulator and a Low Level RF system, running at 100 Hz. The Control System is been designed using EPICS and allows to manage easily and fastly each machine parameter. We expect to start commissioning the machine by the end of 2016 and obtain the first collisions within the first part of 2017. | |||

TUPOW044 | Experimental Investigation of THz Smith-Purcell Radiation From Composite Corrugated Capillary | radiation, simulation, detector, electron | 1861 |
|
|||
Funding: This work was supported by Photon and Quantum Basic Research Coordinated Development Program from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, Japan. Terahertz part of electromagnetic spectrum has a variety of potential applications ranging from fundamental to security applications. Further advances in development of a linac based, tunable, and narrow band coherent source of THz radiation are very important. Mechanisms of Cherenkov radiation and Smith-Purcell radiation (SPR) [*] may be used for generation of THz radiation via coherent emission [**, ***]. In this report we will present experimental investigations of the SPR generated from the corrugated capillary with a reflector, using the femtosecond multi-bunch electron beam of LUCX accelerator at KEK, Japan [****]. LUCX is capable to generate a train of 4 bunches each with 200 femtosecond (60 micrometer) duration and 200 micrometer transverse size. We will discuss the composite design of the capillary, measurements of the SPR angular distributions and the comparison of these measurements with PIC simulations. In addition, we will discuss SPR spectral characteristics; bunch energy modulation, introduced by the corrugated capillary; and the way in which the bunch spacing changes the spectrum and angular distributions of SPR. *K.Lekomtsev et al., NIMB 355 (2015) 164 **A.

TUPOY008 | Design of a Radiotherapy Machine using the 6 MeV C-Band Standing-Wave Accelerator | linac, electron, radiation, controls | 1921 |
|
|||
The majority of the radiotherapy are performed with linacs producing a uniformly intense electron-beam or X-ray beam of different energies. The linacs have the strong attraction of compactness, efficiency, reliability, moderate cost, and well-known technology. We developed and constructed the 6 MeV C-band linac which consists of a thermionic electron gun, a standing-wave accelerating column with the length of 450 mm, a 2.5 MW magnetron, a beam transport system, a beam collimation and monitoring system, and auxiliary systems of vacuum system, water cooling system etc. For the medical application, the gantry system is required to be rotated around the patient and to deliver the beam to the tumor from the linac. We design the gantry mounting our developed C-band linac isocentrically. In addition, the beam bending system and beam collimation are discussed to optimize the gantry space and to improve the beam performance. In this paper, we describe the designed radiotherapy machine including the gantry, a treatment couch and a control console, and present the study results. | |||

TUPOY041 | A Metal-Dielectric Micro-Linac for Radiography Source Replacement | focusing, linac, electron, coupling | 1992 |
|
|||
Funding: * US Department of Energy Contract # DE-SC0011370 To improve public security and prevent the diversion of radioactive material for Radiation Dispersion Devices, RadiaBeam is developing an inexpensive, portable, easy-to-manufacture linac structure to allow effective capture of a ~13 keV electron beam injected from a conventional electron gun and acceleration to a final energy of ~ 1 MeV. The bremsstrahlung X-rays produced by the electron beam on a high-Z converter at the end of the linac will match the penetration and dose rate of a typical ~100 Ci or more Ir-192 source. The tubular Disk-and-Ring structure under development consists of metal and dielectric elements that reduce or even eliminate multi-cell, multi-step brazing. This may allow significant simplification of the fabrication process to enable inexpensive mass-production required for replacement of the ~55,000 radionuclide sources in the US |

TUPOY053 | In-Kind Contributions: A Prosperous Model of Procurement for Large-scale Science Projects | interface, controls, site, experiment | 2017 |
|
|||
The number of research infrastructures which are being built with significant amount of In-Kind Contributions (IKCs) from partners and stakeholders is on the increase. One of the main advantages of the utilization of IKCs in big science projects is to enable numerous partners with technological and scientific know-how participate directly in such projects. Thus, IKCs promote capacity building in technology and knowledge transfer of these partners. However, management and execution of IKCs are particularly challenging. The 2nd In-Kind Contributions Workshop (IKCW 2015) was organized by the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research in Europe (FAIR) with the aim of sharing experiences on the procurement and management of large-scale international science projects through IKCs. This paper focuses on the analysis of the issues pertaining to how to best implement and execute IKCs from the initial phase of assignment until full delivery for both accelerator and experiments. Discussions held during IKCW 2015 are used to highlight these points further. The goal of this paper is to present the reader with a synopsis of the challenges and opportunities faced in procurement through IKCs. | |||

WEOAB03 | Photoemission Properties of LaB6 and CeB6 Under Various Temperature and Incident Photon Energy Conditions | cathode, laser, photon, electron | 2088 |
|
|||
Recently, thermionic cathode materials such as LaB6, Ir5Ce and dispenser cathodes have been also used as photocathode since they have low work function, reasonably high quantum efficiency, and long lifetime*,**. However, the effect of cathode temperature and laser wavelength on quantum efficiency is known only for limited conditions. Although it is expected to be able to lengthen the required wavelength of photocathode drive laser by heating cathodes, laser with photon energy under the work function has not been tested. Revealing them enables us to design the cost minimum accelerators. In this research, photoemission properties of LaB6 and CeB6 with various excitation photon energies will be investigated under various temperatures of the materials. Those materials have similar work function, but CeB6 have one order of magnitude smaller Richardson constant than LaB6***. By comparing photoemission properties of these materials, impact of Richardson constant on the photoemission properties will be investigated.

WEPMB016 | Vertical Test Results of Nitrogen Doped SRF Cavities at KEK | cavity, SRF, monitoring, operation | 2154 |
|
|||
Recently Nitrogen doping(N-doping) technique was proposed and drastic improvements of Q-values were reported. Since high-Q operation of SRF cavities are very attractive for CW machine, we started investigation on performance of Nitrogen doped SRF cavities. Nitrogen doping systems were prepared on two vacuum furnaces, which have been used for annealing of SRF cavities. Two fine grain single cell cavities have been used for the study. After 800 degree, 3 hours annealing, N-doping were carried out under several Pa of Nitrogen pressure and followed by post annealing. Three kind of different conditions, pressure and duration time, were attempted. After applying EP-2, cavity performances were evaluated by vertical tests. Against our expectations, we observed lower Q-values, at every measurements, than those measured without N-doping. In this presentation, we describe details about N-doping system and parameters and results obtained by vertical tests. Some discussions are also given against our results. | |||

WEPMB029 | Research of Nitrogen Doping at IHEP | niobium, cavity, experiment, electron | 2186 |
|
|||
Funding: Work funded by National Natural Science Foundation of China, Grant No. 11505197 Recently, nitrogen doping (N-doping) technology has been proved to increase Q0 of superconducting cavity obviously, which lowers the BCS surface resistance. After N-doping, Q0 of 9-cell 1.3 GHz cavity can be increased to 3*1010 at Eacc = 16 MV/m, while 1.5*1010 without N-doping [1]. Since 2013, there have been over 60 cavities nitrogen doped at FNAL, JLAB and Cornell. The Circular Electron Collider (CEPC) has been proposed by IHEP in China, while requests Q0=4e10@Eacc=15.5 MV/m for 650 MHz cavity. It's hard to achieve without N-doping. So research of N-doping was begun in cooperation with Peking University in early 2015. Experiments of niobium samples have showed that nitrogen concentration at niobium surface increased a lot after N-doping. After then, several single-cell 1.3 GHz cavities completed vertical tests, but there're no successful test results of Q0 increasing, yet. |

The accelerator complex of the Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) consists of two 500-MHz RF systems: one RF system with two KEKB-type single-cell SRF modules is operated for the 3-GeV storage ring of circumference 518 m, and the other with one five-cell Petra cavity at room temperature is for the concentric full-energy booster synchrotron. This report overviews the installation, system integration, commissioning, and initial operation of the 500-MHz RF systems for the TPS with emphasis on our solution to approach the highly reliable SRF operation at its maximum design beam current of 500-mA.

WEPMB053 | Study of Third Harmonic Cavity for Taiwan Photon Source | cavity, dipole, electron, scattering | 2237 |
|
|||
Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is a modern light source with 3 GeV electron energy and low emittance. The bunch length is about 3 mm at designed beam current of 500 mA and operating gap voltage of 3.2 MV. The short bunch length results in short Touschek lifetime and high parasitic loss of insertion device (ID). Some of the undulators are operated in vacuum at TPS, therefore the head load become an important issue. To install higher harmonic cavity is a solution for improving the Touschek lifetime and the heat load by lengthening the bunch length. The effect of installing 3rd harmonic cavity for TPS is investigated. The expected maximum elongation factor for bunch lengthening, as well as the effect on the Touschek lifetime and heat load of ID are presented in this paper. | |||

WEPMR004 | Cryomdoule Test Stand Reduced-Magnetic Support Design at Fermilab | cryomodule, cavity, SRF, linac | 2262 |
|
|||
Funding: Operated by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, under Contract No. DE-AC02- 07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy In a partnership with SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) and Jefferson Lab, Fermilab will assemble and test 17 of the 35 total 1.3 GHz cryomodules for the Linac Coherent Light Source II (LCLS-II) Project. These devices will be tested at Fermilab's Cryomodule Test Facility (CMTF) within the Cryomodule Test Stand (CMTS-1) cave. The problem of magnetic pollution became one of major issues during design stage of the LCLS-II cryomodule as the average quality factor of the accelerating cavities is specified to be 2.7 x 1010. One of the possible ways to mitigate the effect of stray magnetic fields and to keep it below the goal of 5 mGauss involves the application of low permeable materials. Initial permeability and magnetic measurement studies regarding the use of 316L stainless steel material indicated that cold work (machining) and heat affected zones from welding would be acceptable. |

Funding: Operated by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, under Contract No. DE-AC02- 07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy. In a partnership with SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) and Jefferson Lab, Fermilab will assemble and test 17 of the 35 total 1.3 GHz cryomodules for the Linac Coherent Light Source II (LCLS-II) Project. These include a prototype built and delivered by each Lab. Another two 3.9 GHz cryomodules will be built, tested and transported by Fermilab to SLAC. Each assembly will be transported over-the-road from Fermilab or Jefferson Lab using specific routes to SLAC. The transport system consists of a base frame, isolation fixture and upper protective truss. The strongback cryomodule lifting fixture is described along with other supporting equipment used for both over-the-road transport and local (on-site) transport at Fermilab. Initially, analysis of fragile components and stability studies will be performed in order to assess the risk associated with over-the-road transport of a fully assembled cryomodule. |

WEPMR026 | RF Losses from Trapped Flux in SRF Cavities | cavity, SRF, site, niobium | 2327 |
|
|||
Funding: NSF Previous measurements at Cornell have shown that the sensitivity of residual resistance to trapped magnetic field in SRF cavities is heavily dependent on the mean free path of the RF penetration layer of the niobium. Here we report on a systematic study of ten cavity preparations with different mean free paths and the effect of these preparations on sensitivity to trapped magnetic flux. In the clean limit, longer mean free path leads to a lower sensitivity to trapped magnetic flux while in the dirty limit the opposite is true, shorter mean free path leads to lower sensitivity. These results are also shown to be in good agreement with theoretical predictions of RF losses due to oscillations of vortex lines. |

WEPMR033 | Observation of Stable Low Surface Resistance in Large-Grain Niobium SRF Cavities | cavity, niobium, SRF, site | 2344 |
|
|||
Funding: Authored by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177. Low surface resistance, or high unloaded quality factor (Q0), superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities are being pursued actively nowadays as their application in large-scale CW SRF accelerators can save capital and operational cost in cryogenics. There are different options in realization of such cavities. One of them is the large-grain (LG) niobium cavity. In this contribution, we present new experimental results in evaluation of LG niobium cavities cooled down in the presence of an external magnetic field. High Q0 values are achieved even with an ambient magnetic field of up to 100 mG. More over, it is observed that these high Q0 values are super-robust against repeated quench, literally not affected at all after the cavity being deliberately quenched for hundreds of times in the presence of an ambient magnetic field of up to 200 mG. |

WEPMR045 | Engineering Issues of the Medium Energy Beam Transport Line and SRF Linac for the LIPAc | linac, SRF, alignment, solenoid | 2377 |
|
|||
The International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF) aims to provide an accelerator-based, D-Li neutron source to produce high energy neutrons at sufficient intensity and irradiation volume for DEMO materials qualification. Part of the Broader Approach (BA) agreement between Japan and EURATOM, the goal of the IFMIF/EVEDA project is to work on the engineering design of IFMIF and to validate the main technological challenges which, among a wide diversity of hardware includes the LIPAC (Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator), a 125 mA CW deuteron accelerator up to 9 MeV mainly designed and manufactured in Europe. The aim of this paper is to address the engineering issues of the MEBT and SRF linac related to assembly and Integration at LIPAc facility, focusing in the seismic analysis of the beamlines to ensure the robustness of the equipment and the alignment activities with the cutting edge technology performed in Europe before sending the components to Rokkasho. These activities are essential before starting the installation process of the MEBT in the first half of 2016, and to initiate the assembly and integration of the SRF Linac cryomodule in the next phase. | |||

WEPMR048 | Hall Element Relative Position and Angle Calibrations for the Cryogenic Permanent Magnet Undulator | undulator, cryogenics, permanent-magnet, dipole | 2386 |
|
|||
A three dimensions Hall probe will be manufactured for characterizing the magnetic performance of Cryogenic Permanent Magnet Undulator (CPMU) of Chinese High Energy Photon Source and the test facility (HEPS-TF) at Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP). The positional and angular misalignment errors of the Hall sensors play an important role in the measurement accuracy of CPMU. In order to minimize the misalignment errors, a method of calibrating relative displacements and assembly angles of a 3-D Hall probe is carried out. In this paper, details of the calibration procedures and the data processing are presented. | |||

WEPMW004 | Progress in Detector Design and Installation for Measurements of Electron Cloud Trapping in Quadrupole Magnetic Fields at CesrTA | electron, quadrupole, detector, positron | 2420 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by the US National Science Foundation PHY-1416318, PHY-0734867, PHY-1002467, and the U.S. Department of Energy DE-FC02-08ER41538 Following up on our 2013 and 2014 measurements of electron cloud trapping in a quadrupole magnet with 7.4~T/m gradient in the 5.3~GeV positron storage ring at Cornell University, we have redesigned the shielded-stripline time-resolving electron detector and installed a wide-aperture quadrupole magnet at a location in the ring where its field can be compensated by a nearby quadrupole, thus allowing the first measurements of cloud trapping as a function of field gradient. The transverse acceptance of the electron detector has been tripled, allowing tests of model predictions indicating a dramatic cloud splitting effect which exhibits a threshold behavior as a function of bunch population. In addition, a vacuum chamber optimized for cloud buildup measurements using resonant microwave phenomena has been employed. We describe design considerations and modeling predictions for the upcoming 2016 data-taking run. This project is part of the CESR Test Accelerator program, which investigates performance limitations in low-emittance storage and damping rings. |

WEPMY020 | Integration of a Terawatt Laser at the CERN SPS Beam for the AWAKE Experiment on Proton-Driven Plasma Wake Acceleration | laser, plasma, proton, electron | 2592 |
|
|||
In the AWAKE experiment a high-power laser pulse ionizes rubidium atoms inside a 10 m long vapor cell thus creating a plasma for proton-driven wakefield acceleration of electrons. Propagating co-axial with the SPS proton beam the laser pulse seeds the self-modulation instability within the proton bunch on the front of plasma creation. The same laser will also generate UV-pulses for production of a witness electron beam using an RF-photoinjector. The experimental area formerly occupied by CNGS facility is being modified to accommodate the AWAKE experiment. A completely new laser laboratory was built, taking into account specific considerations related to underground work. The requirements for AWAKE laser installation have been fulfilled and vacuum beam lines for delivery of laser beams to the plasma cell and RF-photoinjector have been constructed. First results of laser beam hardware commissioning tests following the laser installation will be presented. | |||

WEPMY026 | A Gas-filled Capillary Based Plasma Source for Wakefield Experiments | plasma, high-voltage, experiment, simulation | 2613 |
|
|||
Funding: This work is supported by the University of Manchester Strategic Grant. A plasma medium can be formed when a gas is discharged via an applied high voltage within a capillary tube. A high voltage discharge based plasma source for plasma wake- field acceleration experiment is being developed. Design considered a glass capillary tube with various inner radii. Glass was preferred to sapphire or quartz options to ease the machining. Electrodes will be attached to the tube using a sealant resistant to high vacuum conditions and baking at high temperatures. Each electrode will be isolated from the neighbouring one using nuts or washers from a thermoplastic polymer insulator material to prevent unwanted sparking outside of the tube. In this paper, general design considerations and possible working points of this plasma source are presented for a range of plasma densities from 1×1020 to 1×1022 m−3. Consideration was also given to plasma density diagnostic techniques due to critical dependence of accelerating gradient on plasma density. |

WEPOR017 | A Micrometric Positioning Sensor for Laser-Based Alignment | laser, experiment, alignment, target | 2700 |
|
|||
The Compact Linear Collider requires 10 μm accuracy over 200m for the alignment of its components. Since current techniques based on stretched wire or water level are difficult to implement, other options are under study. We propose a laser alignment system using positioning sensors made of camera/shutter assemblies. The goal is to implement such a positioning sensor. The corresponding studies comprise design and calibration as well as investigations of measurement accuracy and precision. On the one hand, we describe mathematically the laser beam propagation, its interaction with the shutter and image processing. On the other hand, we present experiments done with the prototype of a positioning sensor. As a result, we give practical suggestions to build the positioning sensors and we describe a calibration protocol to be applied to all sensors before measuring. In addition, we deliver estimates for measurement accuracy and precision. Our work provides the first steps towards a full alignment system. | |||

WEPOR018 | Position Monitoring System for HL-LHC Crab Cavities | cavity, monitoring, radiation, alignment | 2704 |
|
|||
The high luminosity upgrade for the LHC at CERN (HL-LHC project) will extend the discovery potential of the LHC by a factor 10. It relies on key innovative technologies like superconducting cavities for beam rotation, named 'crab cavities'. Two crab cavities will be hosted in a superconducting cryostat working at a cold (<3 K). The position of each cavity will be monitored during the cool-down and the operation in order to comply with the tight alignment tolerances: the misalignment of a cavity axis w.r.t. the other will have to be lower than 0.5 mm and each cavity roll w.r.t. the cryostat axis will have to be lower than 1 mrad. Moreover, the monitoring system will have to be radiation hard (up to 10 MGy) and maintenance free. We propose a solution based on the Frequency Scanning Interferometry to provide the position monitoring of the crab cavities. This paper describes the design and study of such a solution, including the engineering approach, the issues encountered and the lessons learnt. | |||

WEPOR059 | Calculation for the Radiation Dose in Storage Ring Hall based on Monte Carlo Method | radiation, storage-ring, electron, neutron | 2805 |
|
|||
Radiation dose assessment in synchrotron radiation facility is challenging due to the complexity and uncertainties of radiation source terms induced by high energy particle accelerator. Hefei light source (HLS) is the first dedicated synchrotron radiation light source in China. Radiation dose assessment for users at HLS Beam lines is highly concerned. This study presents the method calculating the radiation dose in storage ring hall under normal operation state, the simplified Monte Carlo calculation model was introduced in detail. We obtained the results of radiation dose distribution in HLS storage ring hall with using MCNP, which are in the same order of magnitude with the experimental results. It indicates that the method can be used to calculate the radiation dose level in storage ring hall, and it has certain guiding significance for the radiation protection. | |||

WEPOW016 | Designing an Ultra Low Emittance Lattices for Iranian Light Source Facility Storage Ring | emittance, lattice, storage-ring, scattering | 2858 |
|
|||
Electron storage rings are extensively used for high luminosity colliders, damping rings in high-energy physics and synchrotron light sources. To further increase the luminosity at the colliders or brightness of a synchrotron light sources, the beam emittance is being continually pushed downward. In this paper, we investigate the lattice design for the storage ring of Iranian Light Source Facility (ILSF) with an ultra-low emittance, intermediate energy of 3 GeV and circumference of 528 m. We present the design results for a five-band achromat lattice with the natural emittance of 276 pm-rad. The base line is based on 20 straight sections with the length of 7 m. | |||

WEPOW029 | Solaris Storage Ring Commissioning | storage-ring, radiation, optics, closed-orbit | 2895 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by the European Regional Development Fund within the frame of the Innovative Economy Operational Program: POIG.02.01.00-12-213/09 The Solaris storage ring represents a new class of light source that utilizes the innovative concept of a solid iron block containing all the Double Bend Achromat (DBA) magnets. The use of small magnet gaps brings the benefit of high fields but requires vacuum chambers of high me-chanical accuracy and distributed pumping. Due to very tight mechanical tolerances of the magnet blocks and of the vacuum vessels, the installation of the Solaris storage ring was a challenging task. In this paper the commission-ing results and the performance of this novel machine will be discussed. |

WEPOW031 | Performance of the Vacuum System for the Solaris 1.5 GeV Electron Storage Ring | storage-ring, injection, electron, synchrotron | 2898 |
|
|||
Solaris is a third generation light source recently constructed at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Poland. The machine was designed by the team at the MAX IV Laboratory. A replica of the 1.5 GeV MAX IV storage ring with a 96 m circumference was successfully built at Solaris and now the facility is in its 3rd phase of commissioning. The average pressure in the storage ring was 1.2·10-10 mbar before beam commissioning and increases to 1.2·10-8 mbar with 511 mA of stored beam current for electron energy of 524 MeV. With 10 A·h accumulated beam dose, beam cleaning has permitted an average pressure of 3·10-10 mbar/mA. In this paper the result of vacuum performance from beam cleaning and the beam lifetime will be presented. Moreover vacuum maintenance procedures will be reported. | |||

WEPOW032 | Impact of the DBA Blocks Alignment on the Beam Dynamics of the Storage Ring in Solaris | storage-ring, alignment, electron, synchrotron | 2902 |
|
|||
Installation of the Solaris synchrotron has been accomplished at the beginning of the 2015. Although the machine is a replica of the 1.5 GeV ring at MAX IV in Sweden, the entire group responsible for the installation, was facing numerous problems during the entire installation period. One of the most critical issues that are responsible for the proper functionality of the machine is the survey of the machine. An appropriate alignment of the components in accordance to each other as also to the building, provides a good quality of the beam so extensively desired by the beamline's users. This paper presents the results of the alignment in the 1.5 GeV ring, describes possible critical sectors of the ring that might influence the accuracy of the measurements and juxtapose the results with the values gained during the operational phase of the synchrotron. This comparison enables the identification of the beam losses and extension of the lifetime of the electron beam. | |||

WEPOW040 | Preliminary Beam Test for TPS Fast Orbit Feedback System | feedback, power-supply, interface, electronics | 2930 |
|

TPS (Taiwan Photon Source) is a 3 GeV synchrotron light source which had be successfully commissioning with SRF up to 500 Amp in 2015 and scheduled to open user operation in 2016. As most of the 3rd generation light source, the fast orbit feedback system would be adopted to eliminate various disturbances and improve orbit stability. Due to the vacuum chamber material made of aluminum with higher conductivity and lower bandwidth, extra fast correctors mounted on bellows will be used for FOFB correction loop and DC correction of fast correctors would be transferred to slow ones and avoid fast corrector saturation. This report summarizes the infrastructure of the FOFB and the preliminary beam test is also presented. | |||

WEPOW046 | Status of the Front Ends Project at MAXIV | storage-ring, radiation, insertion, insertion-device | 2947 |
|
|||
The MAX IV laboratory is a Swedish national laboratory for synchrotron radiation hosted by the Lund University. It will operate two storage rings to produce synchrotron light of very high intensity and quality over a broad wavelength range. A linear accelerator will feed these storage rings in topping up mode as well as serve as an electron source for a short pulse facility built on its extension. The storage rings have different sizes and operates at different energies: the MAX IV 1.5 GeV ring has 12 straight sections optimized for soft x-rays; while the MAX IV 3.0 GeV ring, has 20 straight sections, optimized for harder x-rays. In the initial stage of the project, five beamlines are foreseen to operate on the 3 GeV storage ring and an additional five on the 1.5 GeV ring. Each beamline requires a front end to interface the different characteristics in terms of vacuum level, heat loads, radiation safety, beam size and position, with respect to the storage ring. This paper describes the status of the different Front Ends project at MAXIV. | |||

WEPOW047 | A Hybrid Superconducting/Normal Conducting RF System for the Diamond Light Source Storage Ring | cavity, operation, storage-ring, HOM | 2950 |
|
|||
300 mA beam in the Diamond Light Source storage ring is presently maintained by two 500 MHz superconducting CESR-B cavities. Cavity reliability is acceptable at modest operating voltages up to 1.4 MV per cavity but falls off rapidly beyond this value. The installation of an extra cavity or cavities would reduce the voltage demand on the current superconducting cavities and also the operating power level of the high power amplifiers, with commensurate improvement in machine reliability. Furthermore, two superconducting cavity failures in recent years have resulted in machine down-time and reduced-current operation and repair has proven to be prolonged and expensive. It is therefore planned to install two normal conducting cavities into the ring to support operation of the superconducting cavities and to act as a safeguard against any future superconducting cavity failures. Details are presented in this paper of plans and progress towards the installation of the hybrid RF system. | |||

WEPOW051 | R+D Progress Towards a Diffraction Limited Upgrade of the ALS | injection, undulator, emittance, storage-ring | 2962 |
|
|||
Funding: This work was supported by the Laboratory Directed Research and Development Program of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory under U.S. Department of Energy Contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231. Improvements in brightness and coherent flux of about two orders of magnitude over operational storage ring based light sources are possible using multi bend achromat lattice designs. These improvements can be implemented as upgrades of existing facilities, like the proposed upgrade of the Advanced Light Source, making use of the existing infrastructure, thereby reducing cost and time needed to reach full scientific productivity on a large number of beamlines. An R&D program was started at LBNL to further develop the technologies necessary for diffraction-limited storage rings. It involves many areas, and focuses on the specific needs of soft x-ray facilities: NEG coating of small chambers, swap-out injection, bunch lengthening, magnets/radiation production, x-ray optics, and beam physics design optimization. Hardware prototypes have been built and concepts and equipment was tested in beam tests on the existing ALS. |

Funding: NSF PHYS-1416318 Impurity doping of bulk-niobium superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities is a relatively new field of study and the underlying physics is not yet fully understood. Previous studies have shown an increase in the intrinsic quality factor and the corresponding decrease of the temperature-dependent component of the surface resistance of nitrogen-doped cavities with increasing accelerating field.* Here we investigate the effects of alternative inert dopants on the surface resistance and thus the intrinsic quality factor of SRF cavities in pursuit of the optimal dopant and doping level.

Funding: Authored by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177. It has been suspected that appearance of new field emitters can occur in SRF cavities after their placement in accelerator tunnel for long term beam operation. This apparently has been the case for CEBAF. However, no physical evidence has been shown in the past. In this contribution, we will report on the recent results concerning the root cause of field emitters in SRF cavities placed in CEBAF tunnel. We will discuss these results in the context of high-reliability and low-cryogenic-loss operation of CEBAF. |

A secondary electron emission measurement system has been designed and used to study the secondary electron emission (SEE) of different materials with an independently adjustable energy of 50 eV to 5 keV at National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory. Here, we obtained the characteristics of the SEE yield from Pd film coatings, under the condition of magnetic field and without magnetic field. Then it was analysed that the effect of magnetic field on the secondary electron yield in the ultra-high vacuum environment. The results show that magnetic field shielding is critical to avoid the influence of magnetic field during secondary electron yield (SEY) measurements. | |||

For future accelerators, such as SPPC (SEYmax <1.2), the build-up of electron cloud generated in the beam pipes considerably affect the stability of particle beams. Therefore, it is critical to look for steady and low secondary electron yield (SEY) material for future high intensity accelerators. | |||

THPMB051 | Development of Intelligent Alarm Message System at TPS | status, radiation, operation, SRF | 3363 |
|
|||
The traditional alarm systems usually set up/low limit for various signals. When the acquired values exceed the limits, the alarm system would be activated. The proposed system in this article can focus on various possible events with many kinds of signals for response judgments. During alarm calling period, data can also be announced and recorded. The system can also monitor various events according to different time shifts. Integrating LabVIEW, mobile phone, AT-command and Bluetooth communication, the system can handle factory broadcast, sending E-mail and SMS message. The above sound and words messages can be set directly at the home-made software interface. The new intelligent alarm system can eliminate the procedure made by man with the added event recording, system stability improvement and debugging function in wider application fields. | |||

THPMR031 | Turn-by-Turn Measurements for Beam Dynamics at Vepp-5 Damping Ring | impedance, damping, betatron, lattice | 3452 |
|
|||
Preinjector complex VEPP-5 is being constructed for high rate production and acceleration of electrons and positrons beams up to energy 510 MeV. Both kinds of particles accumulated in the damping ring and after achieving of needed intensity the beams would be transported alternatively to VEPP-3/VEPP-4M or to BEP/VEPP-2000 colliders. At this paper basic parameters of damping ring presented. All measurements were carried out for electron beam with energy 385 MeV. For turn-by-turn measurements 12 beam position monitors were used. In order to improve precision of measured value NAFF algorithm was applied. For measurements of longitudinal beam profile optical phi-dissector was used. | |||

THPMW012 | The Fast Interlock Controller for High Power Pulse Modulator at PAL-XFEL | PLC, controls, interlocks, operation | 3561 |
|
|||
Funding: This work is supported by Ministry of Science, ICT(Information/Communication Technology) and Future Planning. The modulator control system for PAL-XFEL consists of a PLC unit (Programmable Logic Controller) and FPSCM (Fast Pulse Signal Conditioning Module). There are two kinds of interlock, which are dynamic and static interlocks categorized as analogue monitor and control signals, digital monitor and control signals. In case of dynamic interlocks, the internal interface of the PLC unit had to be modified due to operating within 10 ms time response from the interlock event. The fast pulse signal conditioning module is adopted for preconditioning the fast pulse and DC signals that inherently have high noise levels generated from a beam voltage, a beam current and EOLC current. Those EM (Electro-Magnetic) noises are generated by thyratron switching. The amplitude of the thyratron noise is large which causes the problem at the control devices, frequently. In this paper, the test results of the interlock control system will be described. |

THPMW019 | Concept and Design of the Injection Kicker System for the FAIR SIS100 Synchrotron | kicker, operation, ion, pulsed-power | 3582 |
|
|||
The SIS100 synchrotron at GSI, Germany is designed for acceleration of protons and ions. For the injection into the synchrotron a kicker magnet system, which consists of 6 ferrite kicker magnet modules, installed in one vacuum tank with a required vacuum quality better than 10-9 Pa, will be needed. The magnetic field should be 118 mT in a 65 mm gap. These kicker magnet modules will be supplied with 6 separate pulser circuits. Each pulser has to produce a pulse current of up to 7 kA at a PFL (pulse forming line) voltage of 80kV at an impedance of 5.7 Ohm. The rise time has to be 130 ns and the variable pulse length is between 0.5 to 2.0 μs. The design concept for this kicker system from Ampegon PPT and DANFYSIK and the specific challenges will be described. | |||

THPMW028 | High Voltage Performance of Surface Coatings on Alumina Insulators | kicker, high-voltage, injection, impedance | 3603 |
|
|||
Alumina insulators and dielectrics are required for a variety of applications in particle accelerators. Their use in high voltage devices, both pulsed and DC, is well established as both insulation and mechanical support. In accelerator equipment the alumina is usually used in ultra-high vacuum and hence charge accumulation can be an issue, especially when the alumina is near to the beam. To address challenges regarding surface flashover and high secondary electron yield in high intensity accelerators, surface treatments and coatings are being considered. This paper presents predictions of the influence of surface coatings, on alumina insulators, upon electric field. | |||

THPMW030 | Studies of Impedance-related Improvements of the SPS Injection Kicker System | kicker, impedance, simulation, coupling | 3611 |
|
|||
The injection kicker system for the SPS consists of sixteen magnets housed in a total of four vacuum tanks. The kicker magnets in one tank have recently limited operation of the SPS with high-intensity beam: this is due to both beam induced heating in the ferrite yoke of the kicker magnets and abnormally high pressure in the vacuum tank. Furthermore, operation with the higher intensity beams needed in the future for HL-LHC is expected to exacerbate these problems. Hence studies of the longitudinal beam coupling impedance of the kicker magnets have been carried out to investigate effective methods to shield the ferrite yoke from the circulating beam. The shielding must not compromise the field quality or high voltage behaviour of the kicker magnets and should not significantly reduce the beam aperture: results of these studies, together with measurements, are presented. In addition results of tests to identify the causes of abnormal outgassing are presented. | |||

THPMW033 | Operational Experience of the Upgraded LHC Injection Kicker Magnets | kicker, injection, operation, impedance | 3623 |
|
|||
During Run 1 of the LHC the injection kicker magnets caused occasional operational delays due to beam induced heating with high bunch intensity and short bunch lengths. In addition, sometimes there were also sporadic issues with microscopic unidentified falling objects, vacuum activity and electrical flashover of the injection kickers. An extensive program of studies was launched and significant upgrades were carried out during long shutdown 1. These upgrades include a new design of a beam screen to both reduce the beam coupling impedance of the kicker magnet, and to significantly reduce the electric field associated with the screen conductors, hence decreasing the probability of electrical breakdown in this region. In addition new cleaning procedures were implemented and equipment adjacent to the injection kickers and various vacuum components were modified. This paper presents operational experience of the injection kicker magnets during Run 2 of the LHC and assesses the effectiveness of the various upgrades. | |||

THPMW043 | Observation of Beam-induced Abort Kicker Ferrite Heating in RHIC | kicker, quadrupole, proton, impedance | 3648 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. Department of Energy. During the FY 2013 RHIC polarized proton run, deterioration of the abort kicker system was observed. The reduced kicks resulted in quenching the superconducting quadrupole Q4 downstream of the beam dump. Frequent re-tuning of the modulator wave form temporarily mitigated the effect, which worsened during the course of the run. Beam-induced heating of the kicker ferrites was evenutally identified as the root cause of this behavior. We report our observations and discuss modifications to the kickers. |

THPMY001 | Design and R&D for the SPring-8 Upgrade Storage Ring Vacuum System | photon, storage-ring, laser, radiation | 3651 |
|
|||
Conceptual design report for the SPring-8 upgrade project (SPring-8-II) was published in November of 2014. Vacuum system for the targeted storage ring should handle some fateful boundary conditions, such as miniaturization of vacuum chamber and increase in number of photon absorbers resulting from the multi-bend achromat configuration. Furthermore, reuse of the existing tunnel brings the severe packing factor issue of vacuum components and the time constraints issue of one-year blackout. Considering the above circumstances, a concept of 12-m long vacuum chamber with welded integral structure was proposed to omit in-situ baking. The 12-m long chamber will be evacuated to ultra-high vacuum by ex-situ baking followed by NEG activation, and moved to the tunnel with special thin gate valves at both ends. Recently, the chamber material has been changed from aluminum alloy to stainless steel (SS) from the viewpoints of elimination of aluminum-SS transition space, beam vibration suppression, and superior outgassing property. Trial production of SS chamber is proceeding to establish appropriate manufacturing processes, while focusing on the accuracy of dimension and magnetic permeability. | |||

THPMY002 | Fabrication of Ferrite-Copper Block by Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) | HOM, cavity, higher-order-mode, plasma | 3654 |
|
|||
A ferrite has been well known as an effective material for absorbing electromagnetic waves. Various types of the ferrite blocks have been actually used in accelerator fields as the higher-order modes (HOMs) absorbers in the vacuum beam pipes. However, one of difficulties in using the ferrite is to bond it to the beam pipes with a sufficient adhesive force, and to assure the contact with a high thermal conductivity in vacuum. The brazing or Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) is not so easy owing to a low thermal expansion rate and a relatively low tensile strength of the ferrite. We established a method of fabricating a ferrite block bonded to copper by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The ferrite powders are directly sintered on a copper block in the SPS process together with some metals to relax the thermal stress between them. The sintered ferrite-copper block can be brazed or welded to other metal blocks, or directly on the beam pipes. Here reported are R&D results of the fabrication method, and some experimental results on the properties of the ferrite-copper block. | |||

THPMY006 | Analysis and Testing of a New RF Bridge Concept as an Alternative to Conventional Sliding RF Fingers in LHC | operation, impedance, ion, alignment | 3660 |
|
|||
RF fingers are used as transition elements in beam vacuum line interconnections to ensure the continuity of the vacuum system wall within acceptable beam stability requirements. The RF fingers must absorb and compensate longitudinal, angular and transversal misalignments due to both thermal effects, during bake-out or cooldown processes, and mechanical movements during assembly, alignment, commissioning and operation phases. The new RF bridge concept is based on a deformable thin-walled structure in copper beryllium, which fulfils the above requirements without the need of sliding contacts. Mechanical tests have been carried out to characterize the response and the lifetime of such a component under different loading conditions. In addition, finite element models have been used to estimate the behaviour. The influence of different material grades and heat treatments on the reliability is presented. The paper includes a detailed analysis of the prototyping and testing phases that have led to a final design of the system, qualified on a dedicated test bench, for the collimator vacuum modules of LHC. | |||

THPMY007 | Vacuum Performance of Amorphous Carbon Coating at Cryogenic Temperature with Presence of Proton Beams | electron, cryogenics, experiment, simulation | 3663 |
|
|||
Amorphous carbon (a-C) coating is the baseline electron multipacting mitigation strategy proposed for the Inner Triplets (IT) in the High Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). As of 2014, the COLD bore EXperiment (COLDEX) is qualifying the performance of a-C coating at cryogenic temperature in a LHC type cryogenic vacuum system. In this paper, the experimental results following a cryogenic vacuum characterization of a-C coating in the 5 to 150 K temperature range are reviewed. We discuss the dynamic pressure rise, gas composition, dissipated heat load and electron activity observed within an accumulated beam time of 9 Ah. The results of dedicated experiments including pre-adsorption of different gas species (H2, CO) on the a-C coating are discussed. Based of phenomenological modeling, up-to-date secondary emission input parameters for a-C coatings are retrieved for electron cloud build-up simulations. Finally, first implications for the HL-LHC ITs design are drawn. | |||

THPMY008 | Mechanical and Vacuum Stability Studies for the LHC Experiments Upgrade | ion, experiment, detector, simulation | 3667 |
|
|||
In April 2015, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has entered its second operational period that will last for 3 years with expected end of the operations at the beginning of 2019. Afterward, the LHC will undergo a long shutdown (LS2) for upgrade and maintenance. The four LHC experiments, ATLAS, ALICE, CMS and LHCb, will experience an important upgrade too. From the design point of view, the LS2 experimental beam vacuum upgrade requires multi-disciplinary approach: based on the geometrical envelope defined by experiment, the vacuum chambers size and shape must be optimized. This included Monte Carlo pressure profile simulations and vacuum stability studies in order to meet the specific pressure requests in the interaction region. Together with vacuum studies the structural analysis are performed in order to optimise chambers thickness and position of the operational and maintenance supports. The material selection for vacuum chambers in the experimental area follows the CERN ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) principle. This paper gives an overview of the LS2 experimental vacuum sectors upgrades. The most extensive design studies, done for the two experiments CMS and ALICE are discussed in detail. | |||

THPMY009 | Coaxial Wire Method Adapted to Weakly Coupled Resonator Mode for LHC RF Fingers Evaluation | resonance, impedance, coupling, cavity | 3670 |
|
|||
In high intensity particle accelerators, RF contact fingers are commonly used to carry the beam induced image current. In addition, they reduce beam impedance by shielding the outer bellows required to compensate mechanical displacements between components. In order to assess the resulting beam impedance from a specific bellow/RF finger configuration, RF measurements are routinely carried out. During these measurements, it was observed that cavity modes in the volume between the fingers and the bellow undulation arise. These resonances occur at significantly higher frequencies than the expected frequency range of interest. Due to their broadband nature, the tails of the imaginary part of these resonances reach into the lower frequency range of interest where it contributes to the beam coupling impedance of the device. For proper evaluation of this contribution, a time domain delay technique in TDT (time domain transmissiometry) was used in order to overcome shortcomings that arise if the classical coaxial wire method is applied to these structures. We present the theory of our method and discuss it in view of the data measured on deformable fingers that were studied for the LHC. | |||

Due to high total power and power density in Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) of EPU48 (Elliptical Polarized Undulator) in double minimum sector, we fabricate a new Aluminum vacuum chamber to increase sufficient room for synchrotron radiation to pass through without damage the storage ring chamber. A new method of in-site replacement of bending chamber is also presented, the result of this replacement procedure shows that it is very cost-effective as well as good UHV vacuum quality. | |||

THPMY013 | Laser-Beam Welding for a TPS Beam-Position Monitor | laser, interface, controls, target | 3679 |
|
|||
The TPS beam-position monitor has two feedthroughs in one flange structure. The hermetic seal was formed with laser-beam welding (LBW). Nd-YAG LBW was adopted to weld a button electrode with a feedthrough; CO2 LBW served for a feedthrough and a flange, Fig. 1. A robotic arm was used for Nd-YAG LBW so that it could accomplish the complicated geometry of the welded joint. Although the CO2 laser was not coordinated with a robotic arm, fixtures were made to implement a circular welded joint the same as welding the feedthrough into a flange. For not only Nd-YAG but also CO2 LBW, the cover gas is the major key that avoids oxidation from atmospheric oxygen and maintains shiny weld beads. Taguchi methods were exploited to find the appropriate parameters for the Nd-YAG pulsed laser, for instance, the laser power, pulse-filling time, frequency etc.. This paper presents the process and details of laser-beam welding of two types for a beam-position monitor.

The NEG films were fabricated by using the direct current (DC) sputtering method. The secondary electron microscopy images showed that the morphology of NEG films was different on these various substrates. The thermal analysis (TA) presented that exothermic reaction happened by heating the samples. | |||

The booster ring of Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is designed to provide full energy injection 3 GeV ramped up from 150 MeV with a small beam emittance. It is a synchrotron accelerator of circumference 496.8 m. The vacuum chamber through the magnets is made of thin stainless-steel tube extruded to an elliptical cross section of inner diameters 35 mm and 20 mm, and thickness 0.7 mm. The other chambers have standard 35CF round tube. The vacuum system was baked in the first installation. Because the residual stress of the stainless-steel elliptical tubing caused the magnetic field to become unstable, all elliptical tubing was removed for annealing to proceed, and reinstalled without baking. The ultimate pressure and data for the residual gas are shown as follows. | |||

THPMY016 | Graphene Coating for the Reduction of the Secondary Electron Yield | electron, cavity, proton, framework | 3688 |
|
|||
Secondary electron emission is a limiting factor for a performance of many instruments ranging from small gauges and detectors to waveguides and charged particle accelerators. There have been several methods of reducing this effect, e.g. the method of using a material with a low Secondary Electron Yield (SEY) or thin film coating with such a low SEY material. This paper describes the effect of SEY mitigation with graphene coatings on aluminium substrate. The maximum SEY (dmax) was decreased from 2.4 for bare aluminium to 1.4 with a graphene coating. Measurements were taken using an electron gun and a Faraday cup, the electron energies varied between 80 eV and 1 keV with a bias of -18 V on the sample. Other biases of -3, -5, -9, -25, -50 and -75 V were also tested however there was no effect on the SEY. | |||

THPMY017 | A Comparison of Surface Properties of Metallic Thin Film Photocathodes | electron, laser, survey, cathode | 3691 |
|
|||
In this work physical vapour deposition magnetron sputtering has been employed to deposit metallic thin films onto Cu, Mo and Si substrates. The use of metallic thin films offers several advantages: (i) metal photocathodes present a fast response time and a relative insensitivity to the vacuum environment (ii) metallic thin films when prepared and transferred in vacuum can offer smoother and cleaner cathode surfaces. The photocathodes developed here will ultimately be used to drive NCRF guns such as that used in VELA and the proposed CLARA light source test facility. The samples grown on Si substrates were used to investigate the morphology and thickness of the film. The samples grown onto Cu and Mo substrates were analysed and tested as photocathodes in a surface characterisation chamber, where X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy was employed to determine surface chemistry and a Kelvin probe apparatus used to determine work function. QE measurements were enabled using a 266 nm UV laser. | |||

The APS-Upgrade project is using SynRad and MolFlow+ to evaluate the vacuum system design for the future 6 GeV, 200 mA APS-Upgrade storage ring. The goal of this work is to explore PSD outgassing predictions from the two programs in order to build confidence in pressure calculations for the APS-U storage ring vacuum system. A study is performed on calibrating PSD measurements for aluminum vacuum chambers and then applying them to APS-U vacuum system calculations. The study reveals that a PSD measurement may not reveal a single unique behavior for a vacuum material and that multiple sources should be considered for vacuum calculations. | |||

THPMY024 | Upgrade of a UHV Furnace for 1700 C Heat Treatment and Processing of Niobium Samples | niobium, power-supply, radiation, radio-frequency | 3709 |
|
|||
Funding: Supported by the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF) under Grant No. 05H15RDRBA In 2005 a high temperature vacuum furnace was put into operation at the Institute for Nuclear Physics at the Technische Universität Darmstadt. It has been designed for firing pure Niobium at temperatures of up to 1870 C. Until now several Nb cavities have been heat treated at 850 C with a proven record of success. The current focus of research in improving the superconductive characteristics of accelerator cavities is on new materials such as Nb3Sn or NbN or on the doping of Nb surfaces with nitrogen, so called N2-Doping. The surface preparations generally take place at temperatures of not more than 1000 C. To study phenomena that occur at higher temperatures, like the formation of delta-phase NbN at 1300 to 1700 C, it is planned to refurbish the UHV furnace and use it for corresponding studies. We will report on the design of a new annealing pot and a sample holder and give a review on our first experiences with the upgraded furnace. |

THPMY030 | How to Manage a Large Scale Beam Line Consolidation in a Highly Activated Area? | radiation, operation, controls, target | 3721 |
|
|||
The TDC2/TCC2 consolidation is a good example showing how the complexity of interventions in high radiation areas has increased over the last five years. Due to its duration, its dispersion, the diversity of the teams involved, the fixed deadlines, the risks and external constraints, this worksite prefigures large scale-interventions in the LHC during long shutdown 2 (LS2) and even more LS3. The paper describes the three main project phases: preparation, execution (including monitoring and control) and closure emphasizing the indispensable steps in each stage. It also explains why integrating scope, schedule and dose into a single baseline is of prime importance and shows how to manage and monitor the radiation safety performance of the various interventions throughout the execution phase. Eventually, some recommendations are formulated in order to better accommodate the design of high radiation areas to their operation and maintenance constraints. | |||

THPOR033 | Integration and Testing of 3 Consecutive CLIC Two-Beam Modules | alignment, collider, operation, feedback | 3856 |
|
|||
CLIC (Compact LInear Collider) is a study of a 50 km long linear electron-positron collider, consisting of ap-proximately 20,000 repetitive 2 m long modules. Micron level manufacturing and alignment tolerances are re-quired for the RF and magnet components due to the nanometre beam size and luminosity goal. The effect of thermal, vacuum and mechanical loads needs to be as-sessed, both in transient and in steady state conditions. The dynamic behaviour of mock-ups was investigated on the prototype two-beam module. Two additional two-beam modules are installed to further investigate the interconnections between them, in a machine-like envi-ronment. The array of three consecutive modules allows for alignment tests of the module sequence, while thermal and vacuum tests can be executed simultaneously. A transportation experiment is foreseen, investigating the feasibility of installing prealigned modules. Finally, new design of components is being tested, based on the expe-rience gathered from the first module and leading to a new generation module. | |||

THPOR036 | Updates on the Sliding Contact Cooling ILC Positron Source Target Development | target, positron, undulator, radiation | 3865 |
|
|||
The R&D of the baseline positron source target for ILC is still ongoing after TDR due to the uncertainty of rotating vacuum seal and water cooling system of the fast spinning target wheel. Different institutes around the globe have proposed different approaches to tackle this issue. A spinning target wheel system with sliding contact cooling has been proposed by ANL. The proposed system eliminated the needs of rotating vacuum seal by using magnetic torque coupler to drive the solid spinning wheel target. The energy deposited from positron production process is taken away via cooling pads sliding against the spinning wheel. A full size test wheel has been built and some initial tests have been done with promising outcomes. Results of these tests are presented in this paper along with a plan for developing a prototype. | |||

THPOR041 | High Gradient Properties of a CLIC Prototype Accelerating Structure made by Tsinghua University | operation, timing, accelerating-gradient, experiment | 3874 |
|
|||
A CLIC prototype structure, T24_THU_#1, was recently high-gradient tested at KEK X-band test stand, Nextef. The copper parts of this 24-cell TW structure were delivered from CERN, were bonded and brazed, bench-tested and tuned in Tsinghua University. The aim of this test was not only to verify the cavity high-gradient properties under 100 MV/m but also to study the breakdown phenomenon in high gradient. High power test results were presented and breakdown rate under 100 MV/m was compared to previously-tested CLIC prototype structures. The assembly capability of Tsinghua University for X-band high gradient structures was validated by the good high gradient performance of T24_THU_#1. | |||

THPOR042 | New Quantity Describing the Pulse Shape Dependence of the High Gradient Limit in Single Cell Standing-Wave Accelerating Structures | operation, radiation, data-analysis, experiment | 3878 |
|
|||
A new quantity has been developed to study the relationship among the breakdown rate, the pulse width and the gradient. Difference pulse shapes can be treated by introducing a Green's function. This paper describes the quantity and the results while it is applied to the data of many high-power test runs of different single-cell standing wave accelerating structures. A remarkably similar relationship between the new quantity and breakdown rate is observed from all of the test results. | |||

THPOR043 | High Power Test of X-band Single Cell HOM-free Choke-mode Damped Accelerating Structure made by Tsinghua University | cavity, operation, HOM, coupling | 3881 |
|
|||
As an alternative design for CLIC main accelerating structures, X-band choke-mode damped structures had been studied for several years. However, the performance of choke-mode cavity under high power is still in lack of research. Two standing wave single cell choke-mode damped accelerating structures with different choke dimensions which are working at 11.424 GHz were designed, manufactured and bench tested by accelerator group in Tsinghua University. High power test was carried out on it to study the breakdown phenomenon in high gradient. A single cell structure without choke which almost has the same inner dimension as choke-mode cavity will also be tested to make a comparison and study how the choke affects high-gradient properties. | |||

THPOR045 | Analytical Estimation of ATF Beam Halo Distribution | scattering, emittance, electron, damping | 3888 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by the National Foundation of Natural Sciences (11505198 and 11575218) Halo distribution is a key topic for background study. This paper has developed an analytical method to give an estimation of ATF beam halo distribution. The equilibrium particle distribution of the beam tail in the ATF damping ring is calculated analytically with different emittance and different vacuum degree. The analytical results agree the measurements very well. This is a general method which can be applied to any electron rings. |

THPOR051 | Beam Based Measurements to Check Integrity of LHC Dump Protection Elements | extraction, kicker, proton, operation | 3908 |
|
|||
LHC operation is approaching its nominal operating goals and several upgrades are also being prepared to increase the beam intensity and brightness. In case of an asynchronous beam dump at 6.5 - 7 TeV a non-negligible fraction of the stored energy (360 MJ during nominal operation) will be deposited on the protection elements (TCDQ and TCDS) located downstream of the extraction kickers. These elements are designed to protect the machine aperture from the large amplitude particles resulting from the asynchronous dump. A number of checks and measurements with beam have been worked out to verify the integrity of these elements, after a potentially harmful event, without opening the machine vacuum. Details on measurements and simulations performed to evaluate the validity of the proposed method are presented in this paper. | |||

THPOW005 | A Study of CsK2Sb Multi-alkali Photocathode by Ultraviolet Photoelectron Spectroscopy at UVSOR | cathode, electron, laser, experiment | 3934 |
|
|||
Photocathode is one of the most important components in the next-generation accelerators, especially based on linear accelerators. Photocathode performance depends not only on electronic state in its bulk material but also on the surface condition. CsK2Sb multi-alkali photocathode is a candidate for the high brightness electron source because of its high quantum efficiency by green laser and its high robustness. We have carried out an UPS (UV Photoelectron Spectroscopy) experiment at UVSOR facility, synchrotron radiation light source in Aichi Japan. We have compared the UPS spectra among several samples, each one has a different quantum efficiency, and try to find physics which decide photocathode's performance. In this case, we focused some characters correlated to the quantum efficiency. I'm going to present a result of this analysis. | |||

THPOW006 | A Study of Operational Lifetime of CsK2Sb Photo-cathode | cathode, laser, electron, storage-ring | 3938 |
|
|||
A high performance electron beam generated with a laser photo-cathode is one of the most important pieces in the advanced accelerator. Because the CsK2Sb photo-cathode is robust with more than 10 % quantum efficiency (QE) by green laser (532nm), it is considered to be the best candidates of the cathode for Energy Recovery Lin-ac (ERL) and Free Electron Laser (FEL) requiring a high brightness beam. We developed a system to evaporate the cathode as a thin film in vacuum to study the cathode performance. The cathode operational lifetime regarding not only on time, but also extracted charge density was studied. We found the lifetime is long enough for practical use in an accelerator. | |||

THPOW008 | DC Photoemission Gun Upgrade at the Compact ERL | gun, operation, high-voltage, FEL | 3944 |
|
|||
Funding: This work is partially supported by a JSPS Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research in Japan (15H03594). The DC photoemission gun at the compact ERL (cERL) has stably provided beam for ERL commissioning and laser Compton scattering experiments since April 2013. The operational voltage has however been limited to 390 kV due to failures of two segments out of the ten segmented insulator. In order to recover 500 kV operation, we installed an additional two segmented insulator on the existing ten segmented insulator during summer shutdown in 2015. The details of the gun upgrade and the operational experience of the upgraded cERL gun will be presented. |

THPOW011 | The Measurement System of the Electron Gun with Double-anode Structure | gun, cathode, electron, high-voltage | 3954 |
|

Funding: National Natural Science Foundation of China(11175181); National Natural Science Foundation of China(10875116) The double-anode structure with an intermediate electrode has been proposed to overcome the strong space-charge force on the cathode and improve the transverse focusing, which make the goal of high perveance and high compression ratio achieved. This gun plays a key role as the external injecting electron source of the independently-tunable-cells (ITC) RF gun. In order to understand the quality of the beam, a measurement system has been designed. The papers present the measurement system and the result of the test. |

THPOW015 | Study of the Performance of Cs2Te Cathodes in the PHIN RF Photoinjector using Long Pulse Trains | cathode, operation, laser, electron | 3960 |
|
|||
The drive beam of CLIC requires unusually high peak and average currents which is challenging for the electron source. As an alternative to the thermionic electron gun foreseen in the baseline design, a photoinjector option is under study at CERN using the PHIN photoinjector, which was designed for a bunch charge of 2.3 nC and 1200 ns train length. During operation with nominal train length in 2014, a large pressure increase in the vacuum system, attributed to a heating of the Faraday cup, caused a degradation of the photocathode. To overcome this problem a vacuum window has been installed to separate the Faraday cup from the rest of the vacuum system. In addition the train length has been further increased to 1600 ns to advance the beam parameters towards CLIC requirements. In this paper recent improved photocathode lifetime measurements carried out under these new conditions will be presented and compared with earlier measurements. Furthermore, the utilized Cs2Te cathode has been analyzed with X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) before and after its usage in PHIN to get a better understanding of photocathode surface deterioration effects, which will also be discussed. | |||

|||
The characterization of cryogenic in vacuum permanent magnet undulators with periods less than 20 mm and correspondingly narrow gaps requires new in-vacuum measurement systems. The positioning accuracy of the HZB in-vacuum Hallprobe bench has substantially been improved (a few μm) with appropriate feedback systems. A new in-vacuum cable tray has been developed. Another system for field integral measurements, an in-vacuum moving wire, is under commissioning. Both devices are presented. | |||

THPOW040 | Insertion Devices for Spring-8 Upgrade Project | undulator, electron, storage-ring, polarization | 4035 |
|
|||
In the upcoming major upgrade project of SPring-8 (SPring-8-II) planned in the early 2020's, the electron energy will be reduced from 8 GeV to 6 GeV and the straight sections will be shortened by nearly 2 m to accommodate more magnets, for the purpose of reducing the emittance down to around 100 pm.rad. The insertion devices (IDs) currently installed in SPring-8 are not compatible with the above upgrade plan, and thus most of them should be replaced with new ones optimized in the new storage ring, or at least be shortened to fit into the new straight sections. We report the status of R&Ds toward realization of IDs for SPring-8-II, such as shortening the magnetic period, reforming the fundamental structure of IDs to reduce the total cost and manufacturing lead time, and refurbishment of existing IDs for shorter lengths. | |||

The storage ring of Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) has eighteen short straight sections (length 7 m) and six long straight sections (length 12 m). In phase I, three elliptically polarized undulators of type APPLE II and seven in-vacuum undulators, which included four in-vacuum undulators and two elliptically polarized undulators in three double mini-βy sections, were installed. Commissioning of the insertion devices began in 2015 November. The influence of insertion devices on the electron beam and the results after compensation are presented. Problems during the commissioning induced by the electron beam and by radiation, and their solutions, are also explained. For insertion devices in phase II and for devices developed in TPS, the preliminary designs are presented herein, to cover from the VUV to the hard X-ray region. | |||

THPOW054 | Cumulative Damage of Ultrafast Laser Pulses | laser, experiment, site, electron | 4066 |
|
|||
We demonstrate experimentally that damage threshold fluence (DTF) for fused silica changes with the number of femtosecond laser (10Hz 600Hz, 655 fs, 800nm) shots. Based on the experimental data we were able to develop a model which indicates that the change in DTF varies with number of shots logarithmically (lnp) up to a critical value. Above this value, DTF approaches an asymptotic value. Both DTF for a single shot and the asymptotic value as well as the critical value where this happens are extrinsic parameters dependent on the configuration (repetition rate, pressure and geometry near or at the surface). Indications are that the power of this dependence (p) is an intrinsic parameter independent of the configuration. | |||

After a major renovation, the Hefei light source (HLS), renamed HLSII, was brought into operation in the beginning of 2015. The operational result shows that the HLS-II not only provides much brighter synchrotron radiation beam for various users, but also shows much higher reliability than the old light source. This paper first gives an overview of the HLS-II. The overall performance of the light source is then summarized in this paper. Some measured key parameters of the light source, including emittance, orbit stability, beam lifetime and so on, are also presented. | |||

THPOY035 | Machine Protection and Safe Operation of LIPAc Linear Accelerator | operation, rfq, linac, SRF | 4178 |
|
|||
A Li(d, xn) fusion relevant neutron source with a broad peak at 14 MeV is indispensable to characterize and qualify suitable structural materials for the plasma facing components in future fusion reactors. LIPAc (Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator), presently under its installation and commissioning phase in Rokkasho, will validate the concept of a 40 MeV deuteron accelerator with its 125 mA CW and 9 MeV deuteron beam for a total beam average power of 1.125 MW. The Machine Protection System (MPS) of LIPAc provides the essential interlock function of stopping the beam in case of excessive beam loss or other hazardous situations. However, approaching LIPAc beam commissioning Phase B (including RFQ powered by total 1.6 MW RF power) a risk analysis has been performed on all major technical systems to identify the sources of risk, apply the necessary countermeasures and enhance accelerator availability, avoiding unnecessary beam stop triggers and allowing a fast beam recovery whenever possible. The overall strategy for the machine protection at LIPAc is presented in this paper. | |||
