The R&D of PPM (Periodic Permanent Magnet)-focused X-band pulse klystrons has been conducted since 1999, originally for Global Linear Collider (GLC) project. So far six prototype tubes have been tested. Some of them successfully produce the power required in GLC (75MW, 1.6μsec pulse width). However their performance was not perfect as a GLC tube. The problems are the stability of RF output and the gun performance. Since GLC programs were terminated in 2004, some limited work on the improvement of the PPM tubes continues at X-Band Test Facility (XTF) in KEK. The work includes the test to evaluate the performance of revised (rebuilt) tubes as well as disassembling these tubes after the test for further inspection. Recent results are reported.

Normal-conducting high field studies have been pursued at XTF, a high power X-band RF facility of KEK developed for linear collider. Three traveling-wave structures developed for X-band linear collider were studied in high field of more than 70MV/m level. High-field characteristic such as field emission properties and trip rate, etc. are studied carefully as the processing proceeds. Operation at 50MV/m level was found very stable while breakdowns happened once an hour or so at more than 70MV/m, indicating the approach to some critical point. This characteristics is discussed in conjunction with various authors trials to make a scaling law of severe breakdowns among power, pulse width and so on. Further basic studies on field/power limitation or robustness against breakdowns in various materials are planned using narrowed waveguide configuration. Unique features related to this study is also described.

This paper reports on C-band accelerating section development for future energy upgrade of the KEKB injector linac. Target field gradient is 42 MV/m, that is twice of the present S-band sections in the linac. Until now, we have developed four 1m-long sections based on a half-scale design of the S-band section with improvements in coupler cavity shape and in fabrication method. And the fifth accelerating section is in fabrication now. The four sections have already installed in the beam line of the linac. Together with a unit of C-band rf source (50 MW klystron, pulse modulator, rf-pulse compressor) installed in the linac, we will perform an operation test of a model C-band accelerator module that has almost same configuration as a design module in the upgrade. Results of the long-term operation test and beam acceleration study will be described. And present status of development of the fifth accelerating section will also be given.
