TUPAB074	S-Band Transverse Deflecting Structure Design for CompactLight	1540

	The CompactLight project is currently developing the design of a next generation hard X-ray FEL facility, which is based on high-gradient X-band (12 GHz) structures. However, to carry out pump-and-probe experiments in the project, two-bunch operation with a spacing of 10 X-band rf cycles is proposed. A sub-harmonic transverse deflecting structure working at S-band is proposed to direct the two bunches into two separate FEL lines. The two FEL pulses will have independently tunable wavelengths and can be combined in a single experiment with a temporal delay between pulses of ± 100 fs. The rf design of the transverse deflector is presented in this paper.

	The results of high-gradient tests of a tapered X-band traveling-wave accelerator structure powered in reversed direction are presented. Powering the tapered structure from the small aperture, normally output, at the end of the structure provides unique conditions for the study of gradient limits. This allows high fields in the first cell for a comparatively low input power and a field distribution that rapidly falls off along the length of the structure. A maximum gradient of 130 MV/m in the first cell at a pulse length of 100 ns was reached for an input power of 31.9 MW. Details of the conditioning and operation at high-gradient are presented. Various breakdown rate measurements were conducted at different power levels and rf pulse widths. The structure was standard T24 CLIC test structure and was tested in Xbox-3 at CERN.

TUPAB077	Novel Open Cavity for Rotating Mode SLED-Type RF Pulse Compressors	1547
	X.W. Wu, A. Grudiev CERN, Meyrin, Switzerland
	A new X-band high-power rotating mode SLAC Energy Doubler (SLED)-type rf pulse compressor is proposed. It is based on a novel cavity type, a single open bowl-shape energy storage cavity with high Q₀ and compact size, which is coupled to the waveguide using a compact rotating mode launcher. The novel cavity type is applied to the rf pulse compression system of the main linac rf module of the klystron-based option of the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC). Quasi-spherical rotating modes of \rm{TE}_1,2,4 and \rm{TE}_1,2,13 are proposed for the correction cavity and storage cavity of the rf pulse compression system respectively. The storage cavity working at \rm{TE}_1,2,13 has a Q₀ of 240000 and a diameter less than 33 cm. The design of the pulse compressor and in particular of the high-Q cavity will be presented in detail.
