MESA is a two pass energy recovery linac (ERL) currently under construction at the Johannes Gutenberg-University in Mainz. MESA uses four 1.3 GHz TESLA type cavities with 12.5 MV/m of accelerating gradient in two modified ELBE type cryomodule with improved thermal connection of the HOM antennas and cw operation. In the first stage of MESA operation 1mA of beam current is foreseen, which will later be upgraded to 10mA. One potential limit to maximum beam current in ERLs is the transverse beam breakup (BBU) instability induced by dipole Higher Order Modes (HOMs). These modes can be excited by bunches passing through the cavities off axis. Following bunches are then deflected by the HOMs, which results in even larger offsets for recirculated bunches. This feedback can even lead to beam loss. Simulation results for HOM spectra of a single TESLA cavity are available for example in *. It was possible to measure the HOM spectra in the cold, not tuned cavities at DESY and in the cold string tuned to the 1.3 GHz fundamental mode at Mainz. Results for the maximum beam current for MESA, limited by BBU, for the various HOM spectra are presented. * "Eigenmode Calculations for the TESLA Cavity Considering Wave-Propagation Losses through Fundamental and Higher-Order Mode Couplers", W.

Funding: Work supported by the German Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung, Land Berlin, grants of the Helmholtz Association and grants of Helmholtz Association and the DFG within GRK 2128 BERLinPro is an Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) project, currently being set up at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie, Berlin, Germany. BERLinPro is designed as - and for - experiments in accelerator physics and as a test bed for novel ERL components. MESA is an ERL project under construction at the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität, Mainz, Germany. MESA is designed as a user facility to perform experiments in dark matter physics and precision measurements of natural constants. Despite the diverse goals, the main linac, providing the larger part of the particles energy, is fairly compatible. It is planned to test and run the MESA linac module in BERLinPro, prior to its usage in MESA. The goals and benefits of this unique cooperation for both projects are outlined in this paper. The necessary adaptions in BERLinPro, including hardware aspects, the new optics, and the scope of performance are described. |
