  Superconducting magnets and RF cavities are widely used in accelerators, and future accelerator projects heavily rely on this technology. There may be several questions on the future of the SC technology, concerning the feasibility of very high field dipoles (~15 T or more), possible technology evolution(s) with new materials, operation at higher temperature, and final sustainability of the technology in terms of helium procurement. The talk will cover a brief history/achievements and some interesting (future) developments, partly or fully answering these question.

MOYCA1 Ultimate Field Gradient in Metallic Structures klystron, linac, collider, damping 24
 
  • W. Wuensch
    CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
 
  Significant progress has been made over the past decade by studies of normal-conducting linear colliders, NLC/JLC (Next/Japanese Linear Collider) and CLIC (Compact Linear Collider), to raise achievable accelerating gradient from the range of 20-30 MV/m up to 100-120 MV/m. The gain has come through a greatly increased understanding of high-power rf phenomena, development of quantitative high-gradient rf design methods, refinements in cavity fabrication techniques and through development of high peak rf power sources. Recently accelerating gradients in excess of 100 MV/m, at very low breakdown rates, have been successfully achieved with new techniques of conditioning in numerous prototypes at different laboratories. The talk will report on the impact of these new results on the understanding of the physics of breakdown and of conditioning, and on the ultimate gradients that can be expected in metallic RF structures.

  One of the objective of the CLIC Test Facility (CTF3) at CERN is to demonstrate the CLIC Drive Beam Recombination concept. An accurate control of the transverse beam parameters is necessary in order to succeed in preserving the beam quality after the recombination. During the activity of the facility we improved our tools and technique for characterising the transverse phase space of the beam before and after recombination. The common quadrupole scan technique was improved by performing constant-beam-size measurement and it was enriched by a tomographic reconstruction of the phase-space. Moreover studies have been performed in order to estimate and subtract the impact of dispersion on such a measurements. An overview of these techniques will be presented with actual measurements performed over the last year of operations of the facility.

MOPIK077 Impact of Dynamical Stray Fields on CLIC shielding, collimation, luminosity, synchrotron 708

  In this paper we estimate the tolerances of stray-fields variations on the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC), discuss possible sources and propose several solutions. The Beam Delivery System (BDS) is the most sensitive system of CLIC to unwanted magnetic field variations, already variations of 1 nT would reduce the luminosity by 10% at wavelengths comparable to the BDS without considering any correction mechanism. Two sources of magnetic field variations are considered, natural and man-made. Precise magnetic field measurements at Earth's surface under a typical geomagnetic storm are presented. Additionally, stray field measurements have been conducted at CERN, to inspect B-field variations due to technical equipment in an accelerator environment. Different solutions are proposed to minimise the impact of stray fields on the CLIC performance.

  The tuning aims to mitigate static imperfections of the Final Focus System (FFS) for emittance preservation at the Interaction Point (IP). A simulation campaign on the nominal CLIC FFS at 3 TeV have shown the need of rethink the design in order to ease the tuning of the machine. The goal is to optimize the lattice in order to make the FFS more tolerant to misalignments by reducing the strength of the sextupoles. The tuning efficiency is promoted as figure of merit to find the optimal layout of the FFS. A comparative study of the tuning performances have been performed for two L* options.

  As the design of the CLIC Beam Delivery System (BDS) evolves, tuning simulations must be performed on each of the proposed lattice designs to see which system achieves the highest luminosity in the most realistic manner. This work will focus on the tuning simulations performed on the so-called Traditional lattice design for the center-of-mass energy of 3 TeV. The lattice modifications required to target the most important aberrations and the latest tuning results will be presented.

  As an alternative design for Compact Linear Collider (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 working at 11.424 GHz and one reference structure without choke were designed, manufactured, low-power measured, and tuned by accelerator group at Tsinghua University. High-power test had been done on them to study the breakdown phenomenon in high gradient and how the choke affects high-gradient properties. A max gradient of 75 MV/m were achieved by the choke-mode structure and the choke breakdown limited further increasing of the gradient. Inner surface inspection of the choke-mode structures indicates that the axial part of the choke limits the performance of the structure. Based on this observation, three new choke-mode structures were designed and being manufactured.

TUPVA130 CLIC Tuning Performance Under Realistic Error Conditions luminosity, collider, target, alignment 2403

    CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
 
  In this paper we present the latest results regarding the tuning study of the baseline design of the CLIC Final Focus System. In previous studies, 90% of the machines reach 90% of the nominal luminosity, when considering beam position monitor errors and transverse misalignments of magnets for a single beam case. In the present study, roll misalignments and strength errors are also included for both e- and e+ beamlines, making the study a more realistic one. First, second and third order knobs are implemented in the tuning procedure to target the most relevant beam size aberrations. In order to minimise the total number of luminosity measurements a simultaneous scan of various knobs has been developed to cope with the non-fully orthogonality of the knobs. The obtained results for single and double beam studies are presented.
