Design Of Superconducting Parallel Bar Cavities For Deflecting/Crabbing Applications, Jean R. Delayen, Subashini De Silva Jan 2011

Design Of Superconducting Parallel Bar Cavities For Deflecting/Crabbing Applications, Jean R. Delayen, Subashini De Silva

Physics Faculty Publications

The superconducting parallel-bar cavity is a deflecting/ crabbing cavity with attractive properties, compared to other conventional designs, that is currently being considered for a number of applications. The new parallel-bar design with curved loading elements and circular or elliptical outer conductors have improved properties compared to the designs with rectangular outer conductors. We present the designs proposed as the deflecting cavities for the Jefferson Lab 12 GeV upgrade and for Project-X and crabbing cavities for the proposed LHC luminosity upgrade and electron-ion collider at Jefferson Lab.


Analysis Of Hom Properties Of Superconducting Parallel-Bar Deflecting/Crabbing Cavities, Subashini De Silva, Jean R. Delayen Jan 2011

Analysis Of Hom Properties Of Superconducting Parallel-Bar Deflecting/Crabbing Cavities, Subashini De Silva, Jean R. Delayen

Physics Faculty Publications

The superconducting parallel-bar cavity is currently being considered for a number of deflecting and crabbing applications due to improved properties and compact design geometries. The 499 MHz deflecting cavity proposed for the Jefferson Lab 12 GeV upgrade and the 400 MHz crab cavity for the proposed LHC luminosity upgrade are two of the major applications. For high current applications the higher order modes must be damped to acceptable levels to eliminate any beam instabilities. The frequencies and R/Q of the HOMs and mode separation are evaluated and compared for different parallel-bar cavity designs.
