Cavity design

Introduction

Frank Gerigk

1

Make recommendation on geometrical beta based on beam dynamics issues, in view of the impact on power dissipation, max. gradient, and required instrumentation

 

 

Optimize cavity geometry w.r.t. peak fields, multipactor, robustness against Lorentz-force detuning, tunability, HOM spectra, cross-talk between cavities, …

 

 

HOM coupler

Introduction

Joachim Tuckmantel/Hans-Walter Glock

1

Acquire results on HOM impedances, beam instability studies, and interaction between cavities via HOM propagation

 

 

Define strategy on HOM coupler design, prototyping and testing

 

 

Design HOM coupler (antenna vs. beam tube absorber), and cooling layout

 

 

Perform multipactor studies

 

 

Identify manufacture and conditioning capacities

 

 

Identify required equipment for HOM coupler tests (do we need room temperature model cavity?)

 

 

Manufacturing of cavities

Introduction

NN

2

Identify potential Labs with manufacturing competence (in house or with industry)
