WE5PFP036 | Full Temperature Mapping System for Standard 1.3 GHz 9-Cell Elliptical SRF Cavities | 2073 |
|
||
Funding: DTRA A temperature mapping system with 4608 100-ohm Allen-Bradley resistors has been built and tested at LANL. With this temperature mapping system we were able to locate lossy regions in the 1.3 GHz 9-cell SRF cavity due to field emission and direct heating. The results of the temperature mapping have been correlated with the inside surface inspection of the cavity and will be shown together with Q-E curves. A brief description of the mapping system and improvements that have been made in the recent months will also be mentioned in the paper. |

WE5PFP037 | SRF Cavity High-Gradient Study at 805 MHz for Proton and Other Applications | 2076 |
|
||
Funding: DTRA 805 MHz elliptical SRF cavities have been used for SNS as the first application for protons. At LANL, an R&D started to explore a capability of getting high-gradient cavities (40-50 MV/m) at this frequency for the future applications such as proton and muon based interrogation testing facility added to the LANSCE accelerator and a power upgrade of the LANSCE accelerator for the fission and fusion material test station. Optimized cell designs for “standard”, “low-loss” and “re-entrant” shapes, cavity test results for “standard” single-cell cavities with temperature mapping as well as surface inspection results will be presented. |

TH5RFP077 | cRIO-Based Wire Scanner Motion Control | 3624 |
|
||
Funding: US DOE The Compact Reconfigurable Input/Output (cRIO) hardware manufactured by National Instruments (NI) is evaluated as a wire scanner motion controller. This particular configuration utilizes a NI cRIO-9074 system combined with various C-series modules for wire scanner motion control I/O. Programs for this system have been written in LabVIEW and a majority of the motion-control functionality has been programmed into the cRIO's FPGA in order to provide the fastest motion control processing possible with cRIO. Additional topics of interest include, cRIO-based resolver-to-digital conversion and closed-loop, stepper-based motion control |
