MOP081 | The PITZ CDS Booster Cavity RF Tuning and Start of Conditioning | 241 |
|
||
The DESY PITZ booster cavity, based on the Cut Disk Structure (CDS), is completed in construction. The L-band normal conducting cavity is intended to operate with accelerating rate up to 12.5 MV/m and RF pulse length up to 800 mks to increase the electron bunch energy in the PITZ facility at 20 MeV. The cavity was vacuum conditioned to reduce the out-gassing rate for operation in the facility with photo cathodes. The cavity is mounted in the PITZ tunnel and RF conditioning is started. The results of RF tuning before and after cavity brazing, together with first results of conditioning, are presented. |
