Description
One of the most important objectives of the CLIC study is to demonstrate the design accelerating gradient of 100 MV/m in a fully featured accelerating structure under nominal operating conditions including pulse length and breakdown rate. The main issues which must be addressed and their interrelations are described along with the development and testing programs which have been put into place to accomplish this feasibility demonstration.
