  Sources of high-power electromagnetic radiation in THz band are becoming promising as a new method of a low activation introscopy. Research and development of accelerating RF photoinjector and radiating system for THz radiation source are reported. The photoinjector is based on disk loaded waveguide (DLW). Two different designs of accelerating structures were modeled: widespread 1.6 cell of DLW structure and travelling wave resonator structure. The resonant models of these structures and the structures with power ports were designed. Electrodynamics characteristics and electric field distribution for all models were acquired. Results of picoseconds photoelectron beam dynamics in modeled structures are reported. Design of decelerating structures exciting Cherenkov radiation are based on corrugated metal channel and metal channel coated with dielectric. Analysis of radiation intensity and frequency band are presented.

  Important progress on the development of dielectric based accelerators has been made experimentally and theoretically in the past few years. One advantage of dielectric accelerators over the metallic counterparts is its compact size, which may attract some applications in industrial or medical accelerators.

  The microbunching instability in the LINAC of a FEL facility has always been an issue which may degrade the quality of the electron beam. As the result, the whole facility may not be working properly. Shanghai soft X-ray FEL project (SXFEL), which is planned to start construction by the end of 2012, will be the first X-ray FEL facility in China. In this article, detailed study will be given based on the physical design of the facility to gain better understanding and control over the possible microbunching instability in SXFEL, which is critical to the success of the project. Moreover, the contribution of the possible plasma effects to the instability will also be studied by modifying the physical model of the longitudinal space charge (LSC) impedance.

If the linac is loaded by a high current, long pulse multi-bunch beam, the energy of the beam drops with time during the pulse. The bunch phase modulation method is introduced to compensate the beam loading. In this method the beam phase in the RF accelerating filed is changed bunch-by-bunch, the beam energy gain in the RF filed gradually grows up, which cancels the drop due to beam loading. The relationship between the beam phase distribution and the linac parameters is calculated in this paper.

  An accelerating structure is one device to boost the particle energy. 2856 MHz 3 m long travelling wave disk-loaded accelerating structure is applied in BEPCII linac, its RF characteristics are mainly determined by the 84 regular cells located between the input and output couplers. Input and output couplers need to be included when the whole structure RF characteristics are simulated before fabrication; otherwise it would be difficult to obtain the travelling wave fields excited in the whole structure. If the real 3D couplers are modelled during the design process, a large amount of computer resources and time need to be used. However, if the redesigned azimuth symmetric coupler is used to replace the real 3D one during the simulation process, much less computer resources and time are required. With this method proposed here, the simulation results agree well with the theoretically calculated and experimentally measured ones.

MOPB043 Detailed Analysis of the Long-Range Wakefield in the Baseline Design of the CLIC Main Linac wakefield, damping, HOM, factory 270
 
  • V.F. Khan, A. Grudiev
    CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
 
  The baseline design for the accelerating structure of the CLIC main linac relies on strong damping of transverse higher order modes (HOMs). Each accelerating cell is equipped with four damping waveguides that enables HOM energy to propagate to damping loads. Most of the HOMs decay exponentially with a Q-factor of about 10 however, there are modes with higher Q-factors. Though the amplitude of the high Q modes is nearly two orders of magnitude smaller than the dominating lowest dipole mode, their cumulative effect over the entire bunch train may be significant and dilute the beam emittance to unacceptable level. In this paper we report on an accurate calculation of the long-range wakefield and its overall effect on beam dynamics. We also discuss possible measures to minimise its effect in a tapered structure.

In the development of new superconducting materials for possible use in SRF-based accelerators, it is useful to work with small candidate samples rather than complete resonant cavities. The recently commissioned Jefferson Lab rf Surface Impedance Characterization (SIC) system* can presently characterize the central region of 50 mm diameter disk samples of various materials from 2 to 40 K exposed to RF magnetic fields up to 14 mT at 7.4 GHz. We report the measurement results from bulk Nb, thin film Nb on Cu and sapphire substrates, and thin film MgB2 on sapphire substrate provided by colleagues at JLab and Temple University. We also report on efforts to extend the operating range to higher fields.

  The electrons acceleration is considered in higher pass bands of TM01 wave for disk loaded waveguide, resulting in the possibility of traveling wave accelerating structures with an operating field phase advance between 180 – 1260 degrees per cell. With an appropriate shape optimization and some additional elements in cells proposed traveling wave structures have small transverse dimensions and high RF efficiency of standing wave operation. Examples of proposed structures together with RF and dispersion properties are presented.

  • V.V. Paramonov

  The periodic constant impedance deflecting structures are widely used for a special beam diagnostic in FEL facilities. The method, based on frequency domain approach, was developed to estimate long range wake fields structure parameters in a wide frequency range. It is shown, that regardless to number of cells in the structure, at each passband to the zone of particle effective interaction with the structure belongs several, at least three modes. The usual time domain simulations provide the total estimation for loss factor or kick factor values and modes separation in the time domain approach requires enormous simulations.

  SwissFEL requires a 5.8 GeV beam provided by a C-band linac consisting of 104 two-meter accelerating structures. Each structure is of the constant gradient type and is composed of 113 cups. The cup shape is double-rounded to increase the quality factor. No tuning feature is implemented. For this reason ultra-precise turning is exploited. A strong R&D program has been launched on structure fabrication, which will be followed by a future technology transfer to a commercial company. The program includes the production and test of short structures that can be brazed in the existing PSI vacuum oven and will be completed with the production of the full two-meter prototype once the new full scale brazing oven, presently under construction, is operational. The status of the R&D program, including the production and power test results of the first two test structures, is reported here.

  The Swiss FEL accelerator concept consists of a 450 MeV S-band injector Linac at 2998.8 GHz followed by the main linac at the C-band frequency aiming at a final energy of 5.8 GeV. The injector has six four-meter long S-band accelerating structures that shall operate with gradients up to 20 MV/m and with a 100 Hz repetition rate. Each structure has 122 cells, including the two coupler cells and operates with a 2π/3 phase advance. The design presented is such that the average dissipated RF power is constant over the whole length of the structure. The cells consist of cups and the cell irises have an elliptical profile to minimize the peak surface electric field. The coupler cells are of the double-feed type with a racetrack cross-section to cancel the dipolar components of the fields and to minimize its quadrupolar components.

  The Swiss FEL accelerator concept consists of a 450 MeV S-band injector linac followed by the main linac in C-band aiming at a final energy of 5.8 GeV. The two-meter long C-band accelerating structures have 113 cells, including the two coupler cells, and operate with a 2π/3 phase advance. The structure is of the constant-gradient type with rounded wall cells and has an average iris radius of 6.44 mm, a radius compatible with the impact of the short-range wakefields on the whole linac beam dynamics. The cell irises have an elliptical profile to minimize the peak surface electric fields and the coupler cells are of the J-type. We report here on the RF design of the structure, as well as on its thermal analysis, to target operational conditions with an accelerating gradient of about 28 MV/m and a repetition rate of 100 Hz.

  The longitudinal space charge (LSC) plays an important role in introducing the microbunching instability in the LINAC of a free electron laser (FEL) facility. The current model of LSC impedance [1] derived from the fundamental electromagnetic theory [2] is widely used to explain the growth of the microbunching instability [3]. However, in the case of highly bright relativistic electron beams, the plasma effect starts to play a role. In this article, the basic model of LSC impedance including the plasma effect is built , and the modifications to the microbunching instability based on the new model are discussed in various conditions.

  A re-buncher with spiral arms for a heavy ion linear accelerator named as SSC-LNAC at HIRFL (the heavy ion research facility of Lanzhou) has been constructed. The re-buncher, which is used for beam longitudinal modulation and match between the RFQ and DTL, is designed to be operated in continuous wave (CW) mode at the Medium-Energy Beam-Transport (MEBT) line to maintain the beam intensity and quality. Because of the longitudinal space limitation, the re-buncher has to be very compact and will be built with four gaps. We determined the key parameters of the re-buncher cavity from the simulations using Microwave Studio software, such as the resonant frequency, the quality factor Q and the shunt impedance. The detailed design of a 53.667 MHz spiral cavity and measurement results of its prototype will be presented.

In prototype cryomodule test of Facility of Rare Isotope Beam (FRIB) β=0.53 half-wave-resonators (HWRs) severe multipacting barriers, prevented RF measurement at the full field specified. The multipacting could not be removed by several hours of RF conditioning. To better understand and to eliminate multipacting, physics models and CST simulations have been developed for both cavity and RF coupler. The simulations have good agreement with the multipacting discovered in coupler and cavity testing. Proposed cavity and coupler geometric optimizations are discussed in this paper.

The machine under development will operate at 176 MHz with output power of 25 kW in continuous wave regime. It consists of 50 push-pull PCB modules (approx. 500W output power each), connected in parallel to several radial filter rings, which both allow class-F operation and combine the power from the modules, delivering it to a single 50 Ω coax cable. The CST simulations ad the design of 324 MHz test prototype are presented.

  A new linac RILAC2 was constructed at RIKEN RI Beam Factory as an injector for very heavy ions such as uranium and xenon of a high mass to charge ratio m/q  ∼  7, but high intensity ions can be extracted from an ion source. Three drift tube linac cavities, operate in continuous wave mode at 36.5 MHz, have been designed and built. In order to reduce an installation area, and to save a construction cost, we adopted a direct coupling method for a power amplifier without using a long transmission line. A complicated design procedure was performed in order to take into account a change of resonant frequency of the cavity caused by a capacitance of a power tube used in the amplifier. A design of the coupler, as well as the cavity was performed using a three-dimensional electromagnetic calculation code, CST Microwave Studio (MWS). The measured input impedance seen from the amplifier (700 – 1100 Ω) was reproduced well by the calculation of MWS. Also, in order to examine MWS, a case of a coupling with 50 Ω were calculated. The coupling conditions obtained by MWS were compared with the measurement and a calculation with a lumped circuit model.

  J-PARC linac employs a fast current transformer (FCT) as a beam phase monitor to calculate the beam energy by time-of-flight method. We have installed and used 61 FCTs in the current beam line. Because the phase measurements at additional 41 points in the future ACS sections are required for the energy upgrade project with adding 21 ACS (Annular Coupled Structure) cavities, we stared the design and fabrication of FCTs as the phase measurement devices. In addition, J-PARC linac employs the 4-stripline beam position monitors (BPMs) for the beam position measurement. It has been considered that the signals from striplines of BPM would be useful for a phase measurement. A phase measurement using a BPM has been successfully conducted. In order to evaluate the performances of the FCT, the signal sensitivity and cut-off frequency of newly fabricated FCT are measured. Also, these data of the BPM are also measured to be compared with the data of FCT. Based on the results of the comparing both measurements, the superiority of both monitors for beam phase measurement is discussed.

  Two room temperature high power bunching cavities are required to be located in the ADS MEBT1 section. Double re–entrant nose cone geometry has been adopted as the type of the bunching cavity for its simplicity, higher shunt impedance and lower risk of multipacting. SUPERFISH is used to optimize the internal dimensions of the bunching cavity, then the RF–thermal–structural–RF coupled analysis were carried out in ANSYS to obtain the preliminary mechanical design, the layout of the cooling channels is optimized to suppress the frequency shift as much as possible. The cavity was specially designed to have the capability to withstand the 1 atm air pressure effect. In addition, the main dimensions of the coupler and tuner are also estimated.
