MOP027 | Study on Nitrogen Infusion using KEK New Furnace | 95 |
|
||
KEK has been carried out high-Q/high-G R&D, to realize high performance of SRF cavities toward ILC. KEK constructed a new furnace, which is dedicated for N-infusion studies. We performed more than 10 times of N-infusion trials using 1.3 GHz single-cell cavities. Some results showed better Q-values up to high field, however, some results showed degraded Q-E slopes probably due to contamination. Improvement of accelerating gradient is not observed at moment. We have tried to clean the furnace and Nitrogen injection line to reduce the effect of contamination. Details of procedures of N-infusion, results of vertical tests, condition of the furnace including RGA spectrum and Nb sample analysis results are shown. | ||

MOP055 | Fabrication and Performance of Superconducting Quarter-Wavelength Resonators for SRILAC | 182 |
|
||
A new superconducting booster linac (SRILAC) at the RIKEN heavy-ion linac is under construction. Ten 73-MHz low-beta quarter-wavelength resonators (QWRs) that operate at 4 K have been fabricated from pure niobium sheets. The cavity parts were assembled by electron beam welding. The resonant frequency for each cavity was adjusted by changing the lengths of the straight sections before welding. The performance and frequency were evaluated by vertical tests. All the cavities exceeded the design specifications of Q0 = 1x109 and Eacc = 6.8 MV/m. Details of the fabrication and frequency tuning as well as the performance of the cavities are reported. | ||

TUP007 | Electromagnetic Design of the Prototype Spoke Cavity for the JAEA-ADS Linac | 399 |
|
||
The Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) is proposing an accelerator-driven subcritical system (ADS) as a future project to transmute long-lived nuclides to short-lived or stable ones. In the JAEA-ADS, a high-power proton beam of 30 MW with a final beam energy of 1.5 GeV is required with a high reliability. Furthermore, the accelerator needs to be operated in a continuous wave mode in order to be compatible with the reactor operation. As the first step toward the detailed design of the JAEA-ADS linac, we are planning to demonstrate a high-field measurement by prototyping a low-beta single spoke resonator (SSR1). We performed the electromagnetic design, and confirmed that the cavity performances of the SSR1 model with and without dimensional constraint. | ||

TUP037 | Construction of Superconducting Linac Booster for Heavy-Ion Linac at RIKEN Nishina Center | 502 |
|
||
At RIKEN Nishina Center, the RIKEN Heavy-Ion Linac (RILAC) is undergoing an upgrade of its acceleration voltage in order to allow it further investigation of new super-heavy elements. In this project, a new superconducting (SC) booster linac, so-called SRILAC, is being developed and constructed. The SRILAC consists of 10 TEM quarter-wavelength resonators made of pure niobium sheets which operate at 4 K. The target performance of each cavity is set as Q0 of 1×109 with its accelerating gradient of 6.8 MV/m. Recently we succeeded to develop high performance SC-cavities which satisfies the requirement with a wide margin. The cryomodule assembly is under way, and installation of cryomodules and He liquefaction system will be completed by the end of FY2018. The cooling-down test is scheduled in the Q1 of FY2019. This contribution makes a report on the construction status of the SRILAC. | ||

SUSP019 | use link to see paper's listing under its alternate paper code | |
|
||
A temperature and magnetic field mapping system for a single cell superconducting cavity is being developed at KEK. The mapping system is used to observe the temperature distribution and the ambient magnetic field distribution around the outer surface of the cavity. A total of 36 boards at every 10 degrees are attached on the cavity. Each board consists of 15 carbon resistors of 100 Ω at room temperature and 3 AMR sensors of X, Y and Z directions at the equator. The calibration of the resisters and AMR sensors were carefully and precisely carried out at low temperature. The data logging system using NI loggers is enabled to measure within 1 ms in the whole cavity surface. The initial test results in the vertical test of the single-cell cavity will be reported in this paper. | ||

TUP104 | Improvement of a Clean Assembly Work for Superconducting RF Cryomodule and Its Application to the KEK-STF Cryomodule | 721 |
|
||
We usually encountered the degradation of the superconducting RF cavities on the cryomodule test even though the performance of these cavities was good on the vertical test. In reality, the degradation of Q-values of two cavities of cERL main-linac were observed after cryomodule assembly in KEK [1] and STF cryomodule also met the degradation after the cryomodule assembly [2]. Some dusts and invisible particles might enter the cavity and generate field emission during the assembly work. Field emission is the most important cause of this degradation. In this paper, first we introduce some trials for the improved clean assembly work to SRF cavity by re-examining our clean assembly work and vacuum work. For example, slow pumping system with vacuum particle monitor was developed to know and control the particle movement during slow pumping and venting. Next we show the application of this improved work to the STF re-assemble cryomodule work in KEK.

TUP105 | Preparation of the Cryomodule Assembly for the Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator (LIPAc) in Rokkasho | 726 |
|
||
The staged installation and commissioning of LIPAc is ongoing at Rokkasho Fusion Institute of QST, Japan for validating the low energy section of the IFMIF deuteron accelerator up to 9 MeV. The LIPAc Superconducting Radio Frequency accelerator (SRF) cryomodule is assembled under the responsibility of the EU Home Team, and the assembly work recently started at Rokkasho in March 2019. To fulfil the cleanliness requirements for the assembly process, QST took the responsibility to prepare the infrastructure of a cleanroom and associated devices. In this present paper, the details of the preparation work for the cryomodule assembly made by QST will be presented. | ||

Successful Beam Commissioning in STF-2 Cryomodules for ILC | |
|
||
Beam commissioning of the STF-2 accelerator was successfully done at the Superconducting RF Test Facility (STF) in KEK from February to March 2019. As a result of various cavity tuning, LLRF control tuning, and beam tuning, the beam energy finally reached 271 MeV, and the accelerating gradient of each cavity estimated from beam energy was 32.0 MV/m. This result satisfies 31.5 MV/m, which is the operating specification of the International Linear Collider (ILC) project, and is an important milestone in the ILC technology demonstration. In this talk, we will report on the detailed results of beam commissioning. | ||

WETEB1 | Development of Superconducting Quarter-Wave Resonator and Cryomodule for Low-Beta Ion Accelerators at RIKEN Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory | 750 |
|
||
A prototype cryomodule with a superconducting quarter- wave resonator (SC QWR) has been developed at RIKEN Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory (RIBF). During the last SRF conference, we presented the performance of our first SC QWR and the first cool-down test of its cryomodule. Since then, we have continued our efforts to improve cavity performance and succeeded in recovering deteriorated Q0. In this paper, we report what we constructed and learned from the prototype, including design issues with the cavity and its cryomodule. Design issues related to the new SC QWRs and their cryomodules for the SC linac booster of the RIKEN Heavy-Ion Linac (RILAC) are described as well. | ||

THP072 | Development of HOM Absorbers for CW Superconducting Cavities in Energy Recovery Linac | 1060 |
|
||
Higher Order Modes (HOM) absorbers for superconducting cavities have been developing at TOSHIBA in collaboration with High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) since 2015. A new prototype HOM absorber for 1.3 GHz 9-cell superconducting cavity was fabricated. An AlN lossy dielectrics cylinder was brazed with a thin copper plate, and the cool-down tests by nitrogen gas was carried out. The copper plate and a copper cylinder were joined by electron beam welding. SUS flanges were electron beam welded to both ends of the copper cylinder to fabricate a whole prototype HOM absorber. Fabrication process of the prototype HOM absorber will be presented in this paper. | ||

FRCAA6 | Investigation on 1, 3 and 9-Cell SRF Elliptical Cavities made of Large Grain Niobium | 1213 |
|
||
Large grain (LG) niobium is directly sliced from niobium ingot. LG niobium sheet has larger crystal size than that of fine grain (FG) niobium which is forged and rolled, and normally used as the SRF cavity materials. It is expected that higher Q-value can be achieved using LG niobium sheet. And, effective reduction in material cost can be also achieved by LG niobium since forge and rolling process are skipped. On the other hand, there are some difficulties in fabrication since it has large deformation due to strong anisotropy. Cavity fabrication facility in KEK has been fabricated 1, 3 and 9-cell elliptical cavities made by LG niobium and RF tested in vertical cryostat. In this talk, the fabrication process and test results from these cavities will be presented. | ||

FRCAB4 | Development of High Intensity, High Brightness, CW SRF Gun with Bi-Alkali Photocathode | 1219 |
|
||
Superconducting conduction electron guns can realize high acceleration voltage and high beam repetition. KEK has been developing the 1.3 GHz elliptical type 1.5 cell superconducting RF gun to investigate fundamental performance. The surface cleaning methods and tools were developed by using KEK SRF gun cavity #1 and surface peak electric field reached to 75 MV/m without field emission. We will apply this technique to the SRF gun cavity #2 for beam operation. The gun cavity #2 equips the helium jacket, frequency tuner cathode position adjuster to operate the electron beam. The RF structure was designed based on the gun cavity #1. The cathode rod is made of Nb. The photocathode deposited on the cathode rod will be cool down to 2K to minimize thermal emittance. The fabrication of the gun cavity #2 and helium jacket were completed. 4 times vertical tests were carried out. We will report the vertical test results and preparation of the horizontal test. | ||
