| MOP090 | Feasibility of Using Conductively Cooled Magnets in Cryomodules of Superconducting Linacs | linac, radiation, cryomodule, solenoid | 361 |

| While trying to find an optimal way to configure cryomodule for the low energy part of a high-current, high-power superconducting linac, an option of using conductively cooled superconducting focusing lenses was evaluated. As part of this evaluation, several tests were made using existing test cryostat. The cryostat was modified by adding current feed-throughs and two conductively cooled current leads, each equipped with heat sinks at the temperatures of liquid nitrogen and liquid helium. A superconducting magnet was mounted inside the cryostat on an individual heat sink, and thermometers were installed on the leads, heat sinks, and on the magnet’s winding. In this report we provide some details of the heat exchangers’ designs, compare predicted and measured temperature distribution along the leads, and analyze results of the winding temperature measurements. | |||

Funding: EuCARD II Current superconducting cavities are generally made of solid niobium. A possibility to reduce cost as well as increase accelerating fields and, essential for CW applications, the quality factor is to use thin-film coated cavities. Measuring and understanding the RF-properties of superconducting thin films, specifically the surface resistance at the operating field and frequency, is needed to drive forward this development. Presently, only few facilities exist capable of measuring the surface resistance of thin films samples with a resolution in the nano-ohm range at L-Band. We describe here a dedicated test stand consisting of a quadrupole resonator that was constructed at the Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin. Starting with 400-MHz quadrupole resonator developed at CERN, the design was adapted and optimized for resolution and reduced peak electric field to 433 MHz (making available the higher harmonic mode at 1,3GHz) using simulation data obtained with CST Microwave Studio as well as ANSYS. The relevant figures of merit have been improved, giving the possibility to perform measurements with high resolution at high field levels. |

| Supratech is a facility at CEA/Saclay that enables tests on superconducting and high power RF components for particle accelerators. The facility comprises a home-made hard tube HV modulator powering up to 95kV-20A at 2.1ms/50Hz and a 700MHz pulsed klystron developed by CPI able to produce RF up to 1MW-2ms/50Hz. A new compact HV and RF interlock system including klystron HV diagnostics has been implemented on Supratech test facility. This paper describes in more detail the klystron interlock system and the results of the first tests. | |||
