  A bead-pull method has been developed which measures in a single bead passage the amplitude and phase advance of deflecting mode travelling wave structures. This bead-pull method has been applied to measure and tune a Lancaster University-designed prototype crab cavity for CLIC. The technique and tuning results are described.

  This paper reports on the construction experience of the Linac4 CCDTL, which took place in two Russian institutes in the framework of three ISTC projects in close collaboration with CERN. The tanks were constructed at VNIITF, Snezhinsk, while the drift tubes and supports were made at BINP, Novosibirsk. All structures were then assembled and tuned at BINP before shipment to CERN where the high-power conditioning took place. The tuning principles, quality checks and conditioning results are presented.

  CLIC will require two crab cavities to align the beams to provide an effective head-on collision with a 20 mdeg crossing angle at the interaction point. An X-band system has been chosen for the crab cavities. Three prototype cavities have been developed in order to test the high power characteristics of these cavities. One cavity has been made by UK industry and one has been made using the same process as the CLIC main linac in order to gain understanding of breakdown behaviour in X-band deflecting cavities. The final cavity incorporates mode-damping waveguides on each cell which will eventually contain SiC dampers. This paper details the design, manufacture and preparation of these cavities for testing and a report on their status.
