| MOP034 | The Statistics of Industrial XFEL Cavities Fabrication at E.ZANON | cavity, controls, niobium, accelerating-gradient | 180 |
|
|||
| Serial production of superconducting cavities for European-XFEL was successfully started at E.ZANON at the end of last year. The production rate (3-4 cavities a week) allows us to summarize the results and present the statistics of industrial cavity fabrication. Many parameters have been traced during different steps of cavity production. The most interesting of them, as cavity length, frequency, field flatness and eccentricity, are presented and discussed. The last results of new preparation cycles development in the frame of E-XFEL projects is also included | |||

| MOP067 | Results From Initial Tests of the 1st Production Prototype β=0.29 and β=0.53 HWR Cavities for FRIB | cavity, linac, cryomodule, vacuum | 280 |
|

Funding: Work supported by US DOE Cooperative Agreement DE-SC0000661 and Michigan State University The first prototypes of the β=0.53 and β=0.29 HWR production design cavities for FRIB were fabricated early this year by Roark Manufacturing Company and delivered to MSU. These cavities have undergone an extensive evaluation program to verify both mechanical and RF performance before proceeding with fabrication of a pre-production run of 10 cavities. Results from physical inspections, warm RF measurements, chemical processing, and cryogenic vertical testing will be presented. |

| MOP069 | Precise Measurement of Superconducting Cavity Movement in Cryomodule by the Position Monitor Using White Light Interferometer | cryomodule, cavity, linac, superconducting-cavity | 291 |
|
|||
| Alignment of Superconducting cavity is one of the important issues for linear collider and/or future light source like ERL and X-FEL. To measure the cavity displacement under cooling to Liq He temperature more precisely, we newly developed the position monitor by using white light interferometer. This monitor is based on the measurement of the interference of light between the measurement target and the reference point. It can measure the position from the outside of the cryomodule. We applied this monitor to the main linac cryomodule of Compact ERL and successfully measured the displacement during 2K cooling with the resolution of 10 micron | |||

| We have fabricated 7 ERL 7-cell cavities for Cornell ERL project. 4 nu-stiffened and 3-stiffened cavities have been fabricated in house so far. Specification values of our 7-cell is 16.2MV/m with Qo of 2.0·1010 at 1.8K. In this report, we will describe our surface treatments recipe which is based on BCP and the results of vertical tests of these 7-cell cavities. | |||
| TUP061 | Update on Study of Welding Porosity in Nb EBW | cavity, neutron, SRF, superconducting-cavity | 567 |
|
|||
| Voids have been found in the Nb EBW seams. Since the buried defects cannot be observed by the optical inspections, other techniques have to be applied to study their characteristics such as distributions. X-ray or neutron radiography have been tried for the purpose. The recent results will be presented. | |||
| TUP078 | Nb Coating Developments with HIPIMS for SRF Applications | cavity, plasma, cathode, niobium | 627 |
|
|||
| In the last few years the interest of the thin film science and technology community on High Impulse Power Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) coatings has steadily increased. HIPIMS literature shows that better thin film morphology, denser and smoother films can be achieved when compared with standard dc Magnetron Sputtering (dcMS) coating technology. Furthermore the capability of HIPIMS to produce a high quantity of ionized species can allow conformal coatings also for complex geometries. A study is under way at CERN to apply this technology for the Nb coating of SRF 1.3-1.5 GHz Cu cavities, and in parallel at SHU the plasma physics and its correlation with film morphology are being investigated. Recent results achieved with this technique are presented in the paper. | |||

Funding: Authored by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177. Over the years, Nb/Cu technology, despite its shortcomings due to the commonly used magnetron sputtering, has positioned itself as an alternative route for the future of accelerator superconducting structures. Avenues for the production of thin films tailored for Superconducting RF (SRF) applications are showing promise with recent developments in ionized PVD coating techniques, i.e. vacuum deposition techniques using energetic ions. Among these techniques, High power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) is a promising emerging technique which combines magnetron sputtering with a pulsed power approach. This contribution describes the benefits of energetic condensation for SRF films and the characteristics of the HiPIMS technology. It describes the on-going efforts pursued in different institutions to exploit the potential of this technology to produce bulk-like Nb films and go beyond Nb performance with the development of film systems, based on other superconducting materials and multilayer structures. |

|
|||
| The phase 1 R&D program launched in preparation to building a 5 GeV Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) at Cornell, a full main linac cryomodule is currently built, housing six 7-cell cavities. In order to control the beam break-up limit, the shape of the cavity was highly optimized and stringent tolerances on the cavity production were targeted. We will report on the details of the cavity production, the accuracy of the cups forming the individual cells, the trimming procedure for the dumbbells, the cavity tuning and final accuracy of the cavity concerning field flatness, resonant frequency and overall length within this small series production. | |||
| THP013 | A New Cavity Design for Medium Beta Acceleration | cavity, linac, cryomodule, impedance | 920 |
|
|||
|
Funding: Work supported by DOE Heavy duty or CW, superconducting proton and heavy ion accelerators are being proposed and constructed worldwide. The total length of the machine is one of the main drivers in terms of cost. Thus HWR and spoke cavities at medium beta are usually optimized to achieve low surface field and high gradient. A novel accelerating structure at β=0.5 evolved from spoke cavity is proposed, with lower surface fields but slightly higher heat load. It would be an interesting option for pulsed and CW accelerators with beam energy of more than 200MeV/u. |

| China ADS is a high intensity proton machine based on CW superconducting technology. It includes two injectors and one main linac. The Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) and the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), are responsible for developing the main linac together.

| THP056 | Validation Procedures for the IFMIF Power Coupler Prototypes | operation, vacuum, controls, linac | 1043 |
|
|||
| In the framework of the International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF), which consists of two high power CW accelerator drivers, each delivering a 125 mA deuteron beam at 40 MeV, a Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator (LIPAc) is presently under design for the first phase of the project. The first two IFMIF Power Coupler Prototypes were manufactured for LIPAc. Series of acceptance tests have been performed successfully. Prototype Power Couplers have been then cleaned and assembled in an ISO 5 cleanroom. A dedicated test bench allowing RF conditioning of the couplers up to 200 kW CW at 175 MHz was achieved. RF power conditioning is planned to start during October 2013. | |||
| THP089 | Design of LLRF System for RAON | LLRF, controls, feedback, FPGA | 1135 |
|
|||
| The low-level RF (LLRF) system being designed for RAON will allow research in the rare isotope beam facility. The LLRF system is used to feed the superconducting quarter-wave resonator having the frequency of 81.25 MHz with controlled the amplitude and phase of RF. The LLRF system uses a field programmable gate array (FPGA) to provide controlled RF amplitude and phase with ±1° and less than ±1% of stabilities, respectively. The resolution and working range is 0.004 dB and 20 dB in amplitude, respectively, and 0.5° and 360° in phase. For the RF performance test, a prototype of LLRF system is designed and fabricated. This paper will describe the design detail. Also, testing results of the prototype of LLRF system are presented. | |||
