| | Recently a dual-axis energy recovery linac has been proposed
for ERL applications, in which accelerating and decelerating
beams can go through separate axes but still recover
energy in novel dual-axis cavities. Here we discuss a
conceptual design of a 5-cell dual-axis cavity evolved from
side-by-side jointed TESLA-type cavities. Instead of an
engineering design, we aim to explore the feasibility of
such a new cavity, giving particular attention to its nonstandard
features that might cause concern to the beam.
This is a preliminary work-in-progress report. | |
