TUA2CO03 | A Novel Technique of Power Control in Magnetron Transmitters for Intense Accelerators | 271 |
|
||
A novel concept of a high-power magnetron transmitter allowing dynamic phase and power control at the frequency of locking signal is proposed. The transmitter compensating parasitic phase and amplitude modulations inherent in Superconducting RF (SRF) cavities within closed feedback loops is intended for powering of the intensity-frontier superconducting accelerators. The concept uses magnetrons driven by a sufficient resonant (injection-locking) signal and fed by the voltage which can be below the threshold of self-excitation. This provides an extended range of power control in a single magnetron at highest efficiency minimizing the cost of RF power unit and the operation cost. Proof-of-principle of the proposed concept demonstrated in pulsed and CW regimes with 2.45 GHz, 1kW magnetrons is discussed here. A conceptual scheme of the high-power transmitter allowing the dynamic wideband phase and mid-frequency power controls is presented and discussed. | ||

Funding: DOE SBIR # DE-SC0006300 Euclid Techlabs is developing a superconducting traveling wave (SCWT) cavity with a feedback waveguide [1] and has demonstrated a traveling wave at room temperature [2] in a 3-cell SCTW cavity [3]. A special method described in this paper was developed for cavity evaluation. It is based on an S-matrix approach. The cavity tuning procedure based on this method is described. |

WEPOA42 | RF Design of a 1.3-GHz High Average Beam Power SRF Electron Source | 789 |

There is a significant interest in developing high-average power electron sources, particularly those integrated with Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) accelerator systems. Even though there are examples of high-average-power electron sources, they are not compact, highly efficient, or available at a reasonable cost. Adapting the recent advances in SRF cavities, RF power sources, and innovative solutions for an SRF gun and cathode system, we have developed a design concept for a compact SRF high-average power electron linac. This design will produce electron beams with energies up to 10 MeV. In this paper, we present the design results of our cathode structure integrated with modified 9-cell accelerating structure. | ||

WEB3CO03 | 650 MHz Elliptical Superconducting RF Cavities for PIP-II Project | 859 |
|
||
Funding: Operated by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy. Proton Improvement Plan-II at Fermilab is an 800 MeV superconducting pulsed linac which is also capable of running in CW mode. The high energy section operates from 185 MeV to 800 MeV instigated using 650 MHz elliptical cavities. The low-beta (LB) βG =0.61 portion will accelerate protons from 185 MeV-500 MeV, while the high-beta (HB) βG = 0.92 portion of the linac will acceler-ate from 500 to 800 MeV. The development of both LB and HB cavities is taking place under the umbrella of the Indian Institutions Fermilab Collaboration (IIFC). This paper presents the design methodology adopted for both low-beta and high-beta cavities starting from the RF design yielding mechanical dimensions of the cavity cells and, then moving to the workable dressed cavity design. Designs of end groups (main coupler side and field probe side), helium vessel, coupler, and tuner are the same for both cavities everywhere where it is possible. The design, analysis and integration of dressed cavity are presented in detail. |

WEPOB27 | Modification of 3rd Harmonic Cavity for CW Operation in LCLS-II Accelerator | 960 |
|
||
A 3.9 GHz 3rd harmonic cavity was developed at FNAL and it is currently used in the FLASH accelerator at DESY in order to improve FEL operation. The European XFEL accelerator in Hamburg also adapted the same cavity design for a pulsed linac operation. The 3rd harmonic cavity for the LCLS-II accelerator at SLAC will operate in a continuous wave (CW) regime. A CW operation and a high average current in the LCLS-II linac result in in-creased heat loads to main and HOM couplers of the cavity. Several cavity design modifications were pro-posed and investigated for improving a cavity perfor-mance in the CW regime. In this paper we present results of the design review for proposed modifications | ||
