Commissioning of te China-ADS injector-I testing facility

The 10 MeV accelerator-driven subcritical system (ADS) Injector-I test stand at Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) is a testing facility dedicated to demonstrate one of the two injector design schemes [Injector Scheme-I, which works at 325 MHz], for the ADS project in China. The Injector adopted a four vane copper structure RFQ with output energy of 3.2 MeV and a superconducting (SC) section accommodating fourteen \b{eta}g=0.12 single spoke cavities, fourteen SC solenoids and fourteen cold BPMs. The ion source was installed since April of 2014, periods of commissioning are regularly scheduled between installation phases of the rest of the injector. Continuous wave (CW) beam was shooting through the injector and 10 MeV CW proton beam with average beam current around 2 mA was obtained recently. This contribution describe the results achieved so far and the difficulties encountered in CW commissioning.

Accelerating Structure design and fabrication For KIPT and PAL XFEL

ANL and the National Science Center "Kharkov Institute of Physics Technology" (NSC KIPT, Kharkov, Ukraine) jointly proposed to design and build a 100MeV/100KW linear accelerator which will be used to drive the neutron source subcritical assembly. Now the linac was almost assembled in KIPT by the team from Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP, Beijing, China). The design and measurement result of the accelerating system of the linac will be described in this paper.

RF thermal and new cold part design studies on TTF-III input coupler for Project-X

RF power coupler is one of the key components in superconducting (SC) linac. It provides RF power to the SC cavity and interconnects different temperature layers (1.8K, 4.2K, 70K and 300K). TTF-III coupler is one of the most promising candidates for the High Energy (HE) linac of Project X, but it cannot meet the average power requirements because of the relatively high temperature rise on the warm inner conductor, some design modifications will be required. In this paper, we describe our simulation studies on the copper coating thickness on the warm inner conductor with RRR value of 10 and 100. Our purpose is to rebalance the dynamic and static loads, and finally lower the temperature rise along the warm inner conductor. In addition, to get stronger coupling, better power handling and less multipacting probability, one new cold part design was proposed using 60mm coaxial line; the corresponding multipacting simulation studies have also been investigated.

Latest Results on Cavity Gradient and Input RF Stability at FLASH/TTF Facility

The FLASH L-band (1.3 GHz) superconducting accelerator facility at DESY has a Low Level RF (LLRF) system that is similar to that envisioned for ILC. This system has extensive monitoring capability and was used to gather performance data relevant to ILC. Recently, waveform data were recorded with both beam on and off for three, 8-cavity cryomodules to evaluate the input RF and cavity gradient stability and study the rf overhead required to achieve constant gradient during the 800μ\s pulses. In this paper, we present the recent experimental results and discuss the pulse-to-pulse input rf and cavity gradient stability for both the beam on and off cases. In addition, a model of the gradient variation observed in the beam off case will be described.

FLASH Beam-Off RF Measurements and Analyses

The FLASH L-band (1.3 GHz) superconducting accelerator facility at DESY has a Low Level RF (LLRF) system that is similar to that envisioned for ILC. This system has extensive monitoring capability and was used to gather performance data relevant to ILC. In particular, waveform data were recorded with beam off for three, 8-cavity cryomodules to evaluate the input rf stability, perturbations to the SC cavity frequencies and the rf overhead required to achieve constant gradient during the 800 microseconds pulses. In this paper, we discuss the measurements and data analysis procedures and present key findings on the pulse-to-pulse input rf and cavity field stability.
