Multipacting Analysis Of The Superconducting Parallel-Bar Cavity, Subashini De Silva, Jean R. Delayen Jan 2011

Multipacting Analysis Of The Superconducting Parallel-Bar Cavity, Subashini De Silva, Jean R. Delayen

Physics Faculty Publications

The superconducting parallel-bar cavity [1] is a deflecting/crabbing cavity with attractive properties, compared to other conventional designs, that is being considered for a number of applications. Multipacting can be a limiting factor to the performance of in any superconducting structure. In the parallel-bar cavity the main contribution to the deflection is due to the transverse deflecting voltage, between the parallel bars, making the design potentially prone to multipacting. This paper presents the results of analytical calculations and numerical simulations of multipacting in the parallel-bar cavity with resonant voltage, impact energies and corresponding particle trajectories.


Design Of Superconducting Multi-Spoke Cavities For High Velocity Applications, C. S. Hopper, Jean R. Delayen Jan 2011

Design Of Superconducting Multi-Spoke Cavities For High Velocity Applications, C. S. Hopper, Jean R. Delayen

Physics Faculty Publications

Superconducting spoke cavities have been designed and tested for particle velocities up to β0 ~ 0.6 and are currently being designed for velocities up to β0 = 1. We present the electromagnetic designs for two-spoke cavities operating at 325 MHz for β0 = 0.82 and β0 = 1.


Higher Order Mode Properties Of Superconducting Two-Spoke Cavities, C. S. Hopper, Jean R. Delayen, R. G. Olave Jan 2011

Higher Order Mode Properties Of Superconducting Two-Spoke Cavities, C. S. Hopper, Jean R. Delayen, R. G. Olave

Physics Faculty Publications

Multi-Spoke cavities lack the cylindrical symmetry that many other cavity types have, which leads to a more complex Higher Order Mode (HOM) spectrum. In addition, spoke cavities offer a large velocity acceptance which means we must perform a detailed analysis of the particle velocity dependence for each mode's R/Q. We present here a study of the HOM properties of two-spoke cavities designed for high-velocity applications. Frequencies, R/Q and field profiles of HOMs have been calculated and are reported.
