Status and Future of the CLIC Study

719

R. Corsini
CERN, Geneva, Switzerland

The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) International Collaboration is carrying out an extensive R&D program towards a multi-TeV electron-positron collider. The CLIC concept is based on the use of high-gradient normal-conducting accelerating structures in conjunction with a novel two-beam acceleration scheme, where the RF power needed to accelerate the colliding beams is extracted from a high-current drive beam running parallel to the main linac. In order to establish the feasibility of such concept a number of key issues were addressed, both experimentally and theoretically, and the results of the study were documented in the recently completed CLIC Conceptual Design Report (CDR). The conclusions reached in the CDR constitute also an important contribution to the European strategy group. A short summary of the present status with will be given, together with an outlook on the program for the next period, aimed at the preparation of an implementation plan.

Application of X-band Linacs

724

G. D'Auria
ELETTRA, Basovizza, Italy

Since the late 80’s the development of Normal Conducting (NC) X-band technology for particle accelerators has made significant progress and has witnessed tremendous growth. The driving force behind this technological development has been, and is, the interest of the scientific community in the construction of a Multi-TeV e⁺e⁻ Linear Collider at a reasonable size and cost. The use of the X-band frequency allows for a much higher accelerating gradient per meter, when compared to the S and C bands. SLAC, with a major contribution from KEK, has been pioneering this development since the late 80’s in the framework of the NLC/JLC projects. Later, in 2007, the same technology was chosen by CERN for CLIC, the 12 GHz Linear Collider based on the Two-Beam Acceleration (TBA) concept. In addition to these applications, X-band technology is also rapidly expanding in the field of X-ray FELs and other photon sources where it shows great potential. Here, a selection of X-band projects as well as the main applications of this technology at different international laboratories, is reported. The paper also includes a brief report on X-band medical and industrial applications.

TRIUMF, Vancouver, Canada
D. Karlen, R.R. Langstaff
Victoria University, Victoria, B.C., Canada

The TRIUMF Advanced Rare Isotope Laboratory (ARIEL) is funded since 2010 June by federal and BC Provincial governments. In collaboration with the University of Victoria, TRIUMF is proceeding with construction of a new target building, connecting tunnel, rehabilitation of an existing vault to contain the electron linear accelerator, and a cryogenic compressor building. TRIUMF starts construction of a 300 keV thermionic gun, and 10 MeV Injector cryomodule (EINJ) in 2012; the designs being complete. The 25 MeV Accelerator Cryomodule (EACA) follows in autumn 2013. TRIUMF is embarking on major equipment purchases and has signed contracts for 4K cryogenic plant and four sub-atmospheric pumps, a 290 kW c.w. klystron and high-voltage power supply, 80 quadrupole magnets, EINJ tank and lid, and four 1.3 GHz niobium 9-cell cavities from a local Canadian supplier. The low energy beam transport and beam diagnotics are being installed at the ISAC-II/VECC test facility. Procurement is anticipated October 2012 for the liquid He distribution system.

Linac-Based Laser Compton Scattering X-Ray and Gamma-Ray Sources

734

R. Hajima
JAEA, Ibaraki-ken, Japan

Laser Compton scattering (LCS) light sources can provide high-energy photons from keV to MeV range. Many research and development projects of linac-based LCS sources are carried on. For the photon energies of tens keV, linac-based LCS sources realize laboratory-size X-ray sources, of which performance can be comparable to synchrotron light sources. Linac-based LCS also realizes unprecedented gamma-ray sources with better monochromaticity than ring-based LCS sources. This talk will review linac-based LCS source in the world.
