MOP015 | Status of the SRF Development for the Project X | 117 |
|
||
Project X is a high intensity proton facility being developed to support a world-leading program of Intensity Frontier physics over the next two decades at Fermilab. The proposed facility is based on the SRF technology and consists of two linacs: CW linac to accelerate beam from 2.1 MeV to 3 GeV and pulsed linac accelerate 5% of the beam up to 8 GeV. In a CW linac five families of SC cavities are used: half-wave resonators (162.5 MHz); single-spoke cavities: SSR1 and SSR2 (325 MHz) and elliptical 5-cell β=0.6 and β=0.9 cavities (650 MHz). Pulsed 3-8 GeV linac linac are based on 9-cell 1.3 GHz cavities. In the paper the basic requirements and the status of development of SC accelerating cavities, auxiliaries (couplers, tuners, etc.) and cryomodules are presented as well as technology challenges caused by their specifics. | ||
MOP068 | NGLS Linac Design | 286 |

Funding: Work supported by the Director, Office of Science, of the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231 The Next Generation Light Source (NGLS) is a design concept for a multibeamline soft x-ray FEL array powered by a CW superconducting linear accelerator, operating with a 1 MHz bunch repetition rate. This paper describes the concepts for the cavity and cryostat design operating at 1.3 GHZ and based on minimal modifications to the design of ILC cryomodules, This leverages the extensive experience derived from R&D that resulted in the ILC design. Due to the different nature of the two applications, particular attention is given now to high loaded Q operation and microphonics control, as well as high reliability and expected up time. The work describes the design and configuration of the linac, including choice of gradient, possible modes of operation, cavity design and RF power, as well as the consequent requirements for the cryogenic system. |

MOP087 | Conceptual Design of a Cryomodule for Compact Crab Cavities for Hi-Lumi LHC | 353 |
|
||
A prototype Superconducting (RF) cryomodule, comprising multiple compact crab cavities is foreseen to realise a local crab crossing scheme for the “Hi-Lumi LHC”, a project launched by CERN to increase the luminosity performance of LHC. A cryomodule with two cavities will be initially installed and tested on the SPS drive accelerator at CERN to evaluate performance with high-intensity proton beams. A series of boundary conditions influence the design of the cryomodule prototype, arising from; the complexity of the cavity design, the requirement for multiple RF couplers, the close proximity to the second LHC beam pipe and the tight space constraints in the SPS and LHC tunnels. As a result, the design of the helium vessel and the cryomodule has become extremely challenging. This paper assesses some of the critical cryogenic and engineering design requirements and describes an optimised cryomodule solution for the tests with SPS. | ||
THP012 | Rebuild of Capture Cavity 1 at Fermilab | 917 |
|
||
Funding: Operated by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy. The front end of the proposed Advanced Superconducting Test Accelerator at Fermilab employs two single cavity cryomodules, known as ‘Capture Cavity 1’ and ‘Capture Cavity 2’, for the first stage of acceleration. Capture Cavity 1 was previously used as the accelerating structure for the A0 Photoinjector to a peak energy of ~14 Mev. In its new location a gradient of ~25 MV/m is required. This has necessitated a major rebuild of the cryomodule including replacement of the cavity with a higher gradient one. Retrofitting the cavity and making upgrades to the module required significant re-design. The design choices and their rationale, summary of the rebuild, and early test results are presented. |

THP036 | Design of a 4 Rod Crab Cavity Cryomodule System for HL-LHC | 982 |
|
||
The LHC requires compact SRF crab cavities for the HL-LHC and 3 potential solutions are under consideration. One option is to develop a 4 rod cavity utilising for quarter wave rods to maintain a dipole field. The cavity design has been developed including power and LOM/HOM couplers have been developed, as well as a conceptual design of a complete cryomodule system including ancillaries and this is presented. The cryomodule is designed to allow easy access during testing and uses a novel support system and contains the opposing beamline section to fit inside the LHC envelope. | ||
