The X-band linear collider design, GLC/NLC, requires accelerating structures in the main linac to operate at 65 MV/m and to be able to control emittance growth due to dipole wakefields generated by 100 micron bunch trains. The approach to high gradient has focused mainly on testing structures for acceptable breakdown rates at the desired gradient through experiments since the problem is analytically challenging. In suppressing dipole wakefields, the damped, detuned structure (DDS) has shown capable of meeting design requirements but the analysis using equivalent circuits has thus far been limited to the lowest two dipole bands. This paper describes a computational approach that addresses these design issues through large-scale simulations, using a suite of parallel electromagnetic codes developed under the DOE SciDAC Accelerator Simulation Project. Numerical results on peak field calculation, dark current generation, and wakefield computation will be presented on the H60VG4S17 DDS structure, considered to be the baseline design for the NLC.

The Low Energy Ring of the PEP-II B-factory operates with extremely high currents and short positron bunches. Any discontinuity in the vacuum chamber can excite a broad-band spectrum of the High Order Modes. A temperature rise has been found in the vacuum chamber elements in one transition from straight section to arc. The power in the wake fields was high enough to char beyond use the feed-through for the Titanium Sublimation Pump. This pumping section consists of the beam chamber and an ante-chamber. Fields, excited in the beam chamber penetrate to the ante-chamber and then through the heater wires of the TSP come out. A small ceramic tile was placed near the TSP feed-through to absorb these fields. A short wire antenna was also placed there. HOM measurements show a wide spectrum with a maximum in the 2-3 GHz region. A special water cooled HOM absorber was designed and put inside the ante-chamber part of the section. As a result, the HOM power in the section decreased and the temperature rise went down. The power loss is 750 W for a beam current of 2 A. Measurements of the HOM impedance for different bunch patterns, bunch length and transverse beam position will be presented.

A new flexible tool for evaluating accelerator reliability was developed as part of the US Linear Collider Technology Comparison Study. The linear collider designs considered were based on the GLC/NLC X-band and TESLA Superconducting proposals, but modified to meet the US physics requirements. To better model some of the complexities of actual operation, a simulation program was written, which included details such as partial fixes or workarounds, hot-swappable repairs, multiple simultaneous repairs, cooldown periods before access, staged recovery from an outage, and both opportunistic and scheduled machine development. The main linacs and damping rings were modeled in detail with component counts taken from the designs, and using MTBFs and MTTRs from existing accelerator experience. Other regions were assigned a nominal overall failure rate. Variants such as a single tunnel or conventional positron source were also evaluated, and estimates made of the sensitivity to recovery or repair times. While neither design was predicted to be sufficiently reliable given present experience, the required improvements were estimated to increase the overall project cost by only a few percent.

We present the latest design and layout of the NLC Beam Delivery System (BDS) for the first and second interaction region (IR). This includes the beam switchyard, skew correction and emittance diagnostics section, collimation system integrated with the final focus, the primary and post linac tune-up beam dumps, and arcs of the second interaction region beamline. The layout and optics are optimized to deliver the design luminosity in the entire energy range from 90GeV to 1.3TeV CM, with the first IR BDS also having the capabilities for multi-TeV extension.

Luminosity stability of the X-band linear collider will be provided by beam-based train by train steering feedbacks in the linac and at the IP, optional active stabilization of the final doublet, being developed to counteract possible excessive vibration of the detector, and optional fast intratrain feedback that would allow delivering major part of the luminosity while other systems are being commissioned. Control and reduction of the beam jitter originating from vibration of collider components is part of our strategy described in this paper.

Careful optics studies and stringent lattice control have been identified as two key components to increasing PEP-II luminosity. An accurate, trusted BPM system is required for both of these strategies. To validate the existing BPM system and to better understand some optical anomalies in the PEP-II rings, an aggressive program of beam-based alignment (BBA) has been initiated. Using a quad-shunt BBA procedure in which a quadrupole?s field strength is varied over a range of beam positions, relative offsets are determined by the BPM readings at which quadrupole field changes no longer induce a closed orbit shift. This procedure was verified in the HER and is well underway in the LER IR. We have found many surprisingly large BPM offsets, some over one centimeter, as well as a number of locations where the current nominal orbit is several millimeters from the quadrupole center. Tune versus quadrupole field data were taken during the BBA process in the LER IR, and the non-linear response in each case is compared to simulation to infer local beta functions.
