  In the Low Energy Ring (LER) of the PEP-II accelerator, we have installed vacuum chambers with rectangular grooves in straight sections to test this possible mitigation technique for the electron cloud effect in the positron damping ring (DR) of the future Linear Colliders such as ILC and CLIC. We have also installed chambers to monitor the secondary electron yield (SEY) of TiN, TiZrV (NEG) and technical accelerator materials under the effect of electron and photon conditioning in situ. Furthermore, we have also installed test chambers in a new 4-magnet chicane. We describe the ongoing R&D effort to mitigate the electron cloud effect in the ILC damping ring, the chambers installation in the PEP-II and latest results.

  In order to improve the luminosity, crab cavities have been installed in the KEKB HER and LER. Since there is only one crab cavity in each ring, the crab cavity generates a horizontally titled bunch oscillating around the whole ring. The electron cloud in LER (positron beam) may distort the crabbed bunch and cause the luminosity drop. This paper briefly estimates the distortion of positron bunch due to the electron cloud with global crab.

  To achieve super high luminosity, high current beams with very short bunch length are needed, which carry high intensity EM fields. For ILC, two bunch trains with bunch length of 300μm and bunch charge of 3.2nC are needed to collide at the IR to achieve the ILC luminosity goals. When the 300μm bunches pass through the IR chamber, wakefields will be excited, which will cause HOM power flowing through the IR chamber beam pipe to the final doublets due to the high frequency characteristic of the induced wakefields. Since superconducting technology is adopted for the final doublets of ILC BDS, whose operation stability might be affected by the HOM power produced at the IR chamber, quench might happen. In this paper, we did some analytical estimation and numerical simulation on the wakefield effects in ILC IR chamber.

  Beam instability caused by the electron cloud has been observed in positron and proton storage rings and it is expected to be a limiting factor in the performance of the positron Damping Ring (DR) of future Linear Colliders such as ILC and CLIC. Possible remedies for the electron cloud effect include thin-film coatings, surface conditioning, antechamber, clearing electrodes, and chamber with grooves or slots. The effect is expected to be particularly severe in magnetic field regions. To test this and possible mitigation methods, we have installed a new 4-dipole chicane experiment in the PEP-II Low Energy Ring (LER). We have also installed test chambers in straight field free regions. The associated chamber consists of bare aluminum and TiN-coated inner surface sections. Each section is instrumented with arrays of readout electrodes and retarding grids. Installation of a grooved chamber is also planned. In this paper, we describe the ongoing R&D effort at SLAC to reduce the electron cloud effect in linear colliders. We present the design of the chicane, the chambers and diagnostics, as well as the experimental results obtained.
