TUP093	Field Emitter Current Conditioning on Nb Single Crystals with Different Roughness due to Varying EP/BCP Ratio	site, gun, ion, controls	686

	Funding: Funding by the BMBF project 05H12PX6 Enhanced field emission (EFE) from particulate contaminations and surface irregularities is one of the main field limitations of the superconducting Nb cavities required for XFEL and ILC. While the number density of particulate emitters can be reduced by dry ice cleaning (DIC) and clean room assembly, the optimum choice of crystallinity and polishing are still under discussion [1]. For the future ILC cavities, large or even single crystal Nb with a combination of BCP and EP is considered. Therefore, we have systematically investigated the EFE of single crystal Nb samples which got the same total polishing depth 136-138 μm but a different EP/BCP ratio (5.80, 2.40, 0.73, 0.15) and DIC by means of correlated optical/AFM profilometry, field emission scaning microscopy (FESM) and high-resolution SEM. Depending on the surface roughness (Ra < 200 nm), field enhancement factors b of 12 – 42 and emitting areas S up to 0.1 μm² were obtained. High current conditioning (μA - mA) of these emitters usually resulted in a slight reduction of b (factor < 2) but a strong increase of S. The influence of the surface roughness on the EFE and conditioning of the remaining emitters will be discussed. [1] Reschke et al., Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 13, 071001-1 (2010)

	Efficient damping of the higher-order modes (HOMs) of the superconducting cavities is essential for the proposed energy recovery linac at Cornell that aims for high beam currents and short bunches. Designing these HOM beamline absorbers has been a long endeavor, sometimes including disappointing results. We will review the design, the findings on the prototype and the final choices made for the 7 HOM absorbers being built for the main linac cryomodule (MLC) prototype.

	Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under contract no. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the DOE. The Brookhaven Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) is operated as R&D setup for high-current, high charge electron beams. It is comprised of a superconducting (SC) five-cell cavity and a half-cell SC photoinjector electron RF gun. Achieving the performance objectives requires effective HOM damping in the linac and gun cavity. Among the HOM dampers being developed is a beam-tube type HOM load for the electron gun consisting of a ceramic break surrounded by ferrite tiles. This design is innovative in its approach and achieves a variety of ends including broadband HOM damping and protection of the superconducting cavity from potential damage of the separately cooled ferrite tiles. The damper properties are described by the coupling impedance to a beam and the external Q to constrain the unloaded mode Q’s. Measured results for the gun damper at room and superconducting temperatures are presented

THP068	New Design of HOM Coupler Using Coaxial-like Rounded Waveguide	HOM, cavity, simulation, operation	1081

	It is important to damp higher-order modes (HOMs) of superconducting accelerators especially for energy-recovery linacs of high current operation. Though various types of HOM couplers, beam line HOM dampers and waveguide HOM couplers have been developed, there are some problems such as inner conductor heating of output connector for HOM couplers and low packing factor for beam line HOM dampers. We propose new design of HOM coupler. This coupler consists of a coaxial line coupled with a cavity or a beam pipe and a rounded waveguide which cuts off the accelerating mode. The rounded waveguide is similar to a coaxial line and the inner conductor and outer conductor are connected with a plate which corresponds to waveguide side wall. This enables the inner connector cooled down efficiently through the outer conductor. The calculation results of MW-STUDIO will be presented.

THP073	HOM Dampers and Waveguide for the Short Pulse X-Ray (SPX) Project	HOM, cavity, cryomodule, vacuum	1098

	Funding: Work supported by U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. The production of HOM dampers for the superconducting SPX cavities has been undertaken at the Advanced Photon Source. The dampers are vacuum compatible loads that utilize a four wedge design in WR284 rectangular waveguide. The rf lossy material consists of hexoloy silicon carbide (SiC) due to its suitable mechanical and electrical material properties. Issues regarding manufacturing consist of initial SiC material failure due to fabrication stresses as well as substandard soldering bonds of the SiC to the copper damper bodies. In addition, integration into the cryomodule consists of rf, thermal, and mechanical design considerations of the dampers and the waveguide transmission lines. An analysis of the manufacturing and integration issues and remedies are discussed further in this paper.
