Presentation Transcript

  1. Minimizing the RF Fields on the Surface of an SRF Cavity by Optimizing its Shape David Stark Advisor: Valery Shemelin Cornell University Cornell Laboratory for Accelerator-based Sciences and Education (CLASSE)

  2. SRF Cavities • RF power through superconductor produces electric fields that accelerate particles Cornell CLASSE REU

  3. Limitations • Magnetic field cannot exceed critical field • High electric fields can cause field emission • For TESLA: • Useful parameters: • e and h are each 1 for TESLA Cornell CLASSE REU

  4. Minimizing h and e • Flatten maxima of e and h curves to lower peak values • Looking at e≤1.2 case in particular H L E Cornell CLASSE REU

  5. SuperLANS • Calculates electric and magnetic fields in cavity • Program performs a numerical analysis using a mesh of points • Input cavity shape via geometry file Mesh: Sample Geometry file: Cornell CLASSE REU

  6. Initial Testing 2 Separated Ellipses 2 Conjugate Ellipses 2 Overlapping Ellipses Cornell CLASSE REU

  7. 6-elliptic Arc • Upper and lower arcs each broken into 3 conjugate ellipses • Shifting intersection points allows us to flatten fields R(mm) Z(mm) Cornell CLASSE REU

  8. Testing each Variable • Systematically change each variable, one at a time, and see how e and h change Cornell CLASSE REU

  9. Progress and Goals • Want to minimize h for e ≤ 1.2 • Starting point: • Current best: • Goal: Cornell CLASSE REU
