WEPMN092 | Capture Cavity II Results at FNAL | 2245 |
|
||
Funding: FRA As part of the research and development towards the International Linear Collider (ILC), several test facilities have been developed at Fermilab. This paper presents the latest LLRF results obtained with Capture Cavity II at these test facilities. The main focus will be on controls and RF operations using the SIMCON based LLRF system. Details about hardware upgrades and overall system performance will be also explained. Finally, design considerations and objectives for the future test facility at the New Muon Laboratory (NML) will be presented. |

THPAN117 | Electron Cloud Studies at Tevatron and Main Injector | 3501 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by the U. S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC02-76CH03000 Estimates indicate that the electron cloud effect could be a limiting factor for Main Injector intensity upgrades, with or without a the presence of a new 8 GeV superconducting 8GeV Linac injector. The effect may turn out to be an issue of operational relevance for other parts of the Fermilab accelerator complex as well. To improve our understanding of the situation, two sections of specially made vacuum test pipe outfitted for electron cloud detection with ANL provided Retarding Field Analyzers (RFAs), were installed in the Tevatron and the Main Injector. In this report we present some measurements, compare them with simulations and discuss future plans for studies. |
