  When optimizing the shape of high-gradient accelerating cells, the goal has traditionally been to minimize the peak surface electric field / gradient, or more recently minimizing the peak modified Poynting vector / gradient squared. This paper presents a method for directly comparing these quan- tities, as well as the power flow per circumference / gradient squared. The method works by comparing the maximum tolerable gradient at a fixed pulse length and breakdown rate that can be expected from the different constraints. The paper also presents a set of 120° phase-advance cells for traveling wave structures, which were designed for the new CLIC main linac accelerating structure, and which are optimized according to these criteria.

  A nose-cone single-gap buncher cavity for the Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT) has been fully designed, manufactured and measured under low-power conditions at ESS-Bilbao. The main steps of the design process are first reviewed. Second, the cavity is thoroughly measured and characterized by means of an automatic test procedure based on the bead-pull technique. Third, the simulated and measured results obtained for the main figures of merit are compared. Specifically, the results for the resonant frequency, the coupling and quality factors, the electric field profile, the R over Q ratio, the transit time factor and the tuning range are carefully analysed.
