The crab cavity program for LHC luminosity upgrade envisages the testing of at least one of the three competing crab cavities in the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) of CERN by 2016. This paper presents the design optimization of a Double Quarter Wave Crab Cavity (DQWCC) prototype suited for testing in SPS.

A proof of principle Double Quarter Wave Crab Cavity (DQWCC) was designed and fabricated for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) luminosity upgrade. Vertical cryogenic test has been done in Brookhaven National Lab (BNL). We report the test results of this design.

A double quarter wave crab cavity was designed for the Large Hadron Collider luminosity upgrade. Starting from the analytical calculation of simplified RLC circuit, a compact higher order mode filter is developed for this cavity. Finite element simulation results are presented. The design concept is generic and can easily be adapted to other cavities.
