MOPEC081 | The Concept Design of the CW Linac of the Project X | 654 |
|
||
The concept design of the 2.5 GeV superconducting CW linac of the Project X is discussed. The linac structure and break points for different cavity families are described. The results of the RF system optimization are presented as well as the lattice design and beam dynamics analysis. |

THPEA014 | TE11/TM11 Mixed-mode Waveguide Valve at X-band | 3705 |
|
||
A waveguide vacuum valve for WR90 waveguide was designed, fabricated and tested. The valve consists of a modified commercial gate valve sandwitched with smooth tapers. The TE10 traveling wave in WR90 waveguide is "transmoded" into TE11+TM11 mode in the taper, going through the gate valve and is tapered back to the normal mode in WR90. The test has been successfully done. The valve stably trasmitted 40MW peak power with 500ns pulse width and this is limited by available RF power source. |

THPEB051 | Observation of an Anomalous Tuning Range of a Doped BST Ferroelectric Material Developed for Accelerator Applications | 3987 |

The BST based ferroelectric-oxide compounds have been found as suitable materials for a fast electrically-controlled RF switches and phase shifters that are under development for accelerator applications in X, Ka and L - frequency bands. The BST(M) material (BST ferroelectric with Mg-based additives) allows fast switching and tuning in vacuum and in air both; switching time of material samples < 10 ns has been demonstrated*. One of the problems related to accelerator application of BST ferroelectric is its high dielectric constant. Decreasing the permittivity however is usually strongly correlated with a decrease in the tunability (k(E)=ε(0)/ε(E)) of ferroelectrics. The use of linear dielectric inclusions in BST ceramics could result in significant suppression of the mentioned k(E) dependence, with the best case being that the tunability vs. ε decrease could be unchanged. On the basis of our measurements we report here two unusual phenomena observed**: (i) the increase both the dc and the dynamic tunability with a decrease of the dielectric constant; (ii) the dynamic tunability was observed to exceed the static tunability at specific magnitudes of the applied field. * A.Kanareykin et al, Proceedings PAC'09. |
