Measurement and Compensation of Microphonics in CW-Operated TESLA Type Cavities Oliver Kugeler
Motivation Why is microphonics an issue? Energy Recovery Linacs: • Beam loading small / close to zero • Cavity run at high loaded Q • Small cavity bandwidth • Any small shift in the cavity frequency • requires signficant increase in power to maintain constant field • produces phase errors that affect the beam. • Must understand what microphonics should be expected • Must investigate mechanics of the cavity-tuner system to be able to compensate for the microphonics
Contents • Experimental setup at HoBiCaT • Microphonics measurements • Comparison of tuner systems • Microphonics compensation • Conclusion
HoBiCaT • Purpose: • CW adaptation of TESLA technology • Cryostat for two cavities • Cryogenics 80 W @ 1.8 K • 10 kW Klystron • 30 kW IOT CW transmitter • Low level-RF • 4 different cavities tested so far

Sources of Microphonics Integrated Fast Fourier Transform from microphonics spectra
Sources of Microphonics – liquid Helium pressure Cross-correlation between pressure in liquid helium bath and phase error p(lHe) = 16 mbar maximum correlation 0.8 Hz thermoacoustic fluctuations in LHe pressure 0.4 s instrument measurement-time • Aiming at microphonics rms value < 1 Hz
Frequency – Pressure Dependence Importance of pressure stability: 1 mbar pressure change shifts cavity resonance by several bandwidths Pressure stability in HoBiCaT now better than 30mbar pk-pk
Sources of Microphonics Observed strong correlation between cavity resonance frequency (upper picture) and cryogenics parameters, here a badly coupled part of the liquid nitrogen shielding
Strong correlation between cavity resonance frequency (upper picture) and cryogenics parameters, i.e. the slowly relaxing temperature at a badly thermally coupled stepper motor tuner

Overview of tuner properties what works, what must be improved
Microphonics with feedback and feed-forward compensation Df (rms, feedback) = 4.33 Hz, maximum=13.4 Hz Df (rms, feedback+FF) = 0.77 Hz, maximum at 2.9 Hz
Conclusion • Measured microphonics in HoBiCaT, 1-3 Hz rms, 10-15 Hz pk-pk • 50 % is due to LHe bath pressure feedback possible • Stability of liquid Helium pressure critical for microphonics • Analyzed two tuners for suitability of compensation • Pro Saclay I: motor control, pro Saclay II: piezo control • Motor control for Saclay II needs improvement • Microphonics reduction demonstrated by factor 3
