Projects and status reports II
- Morten Jensen (European Spallation Source)
I will present the status of the RF systems at the Advanced Light Source (ALS) and the progress made in commissioning the new Storage Ring RF system.
Additionally, I will report on the conceptional design of the ALS-U accumulator RF system and the VHF solid state amplifier for the LCLS-II Gun B collaboration.
A second X-ray free electron laser facility, LCLS-II, is being constructed at SLAC. LCLS-II is based on a 1.3 GHz, 4 GeV, continuous-wave (CW) superconducting linear accelerator, to be installed in the first kilometer of the SLAC tunnel. Multiple types of high power RF (HPRF) sources will be used to power different systems. The main 1.3 GHz linac will be powered by 280 1.3 GHz, 3.8 kW solid...
The NSLS-II has been operating for four years with two CESRb type SRF cavities powered by 300 kW klystron transmitters. As the operating current is raised from 375 mA operations today to the design value of 500mA, and additional insertion devices increase the energy loss per turn we will reach a limit in installed RF power by 2020. A new project to add a third SRF system to provide power for...
