Mechanical Properties and Cavity Design Cavity should not collapse or deform too much under atmospheric load Shape avoid flat regions Elliptical profile is stronger Choose sufficient wall thickness Use tuner to bring resonance to right frequency Differential thermal contraction due to cool-down induces stress on the cavity walls. 24 H. Padamsee
Mechanical Design To avoid plastic deformation the cumulative mechanical stress on the cavity walls must not exceed the cavity material yield strength, including some engineering margin. The frequency shifts due to these stresses must be taken into account for targeting the final frequency or tuner settings and tuner range. Stresses due to the operation of the tuner mechanism should not exceed yield strength while cold. The mechanical requirements may be dealt with by proper choice of cavity wall thickness or by adding stiffening rings or ribs at locations of high strain. H. Padamsee 25 H. Padamsee
Stress Calculations • Codes such as ANSYS or COSMOS determine structural mechanical properties and help reduce cavity wall deformations in the presence of mechanical loads and vibrations by choosing the appropriate wall thickness or location of stiffening rings or ribs.
Beta 0.65 Mechanical design • Von Mises stresses for 1.5 bar @ 300K < 50 MPa with 4mm 46 MPa Cavity walls = 4mm Niobium cost ~70 k€ beam axis H. Padamsee
COSMOS stress calculation results for the b = 0.5, 700 MHz elliptical cavity. • Without conical stiffener, the maximum stress is 54 MPa. • (b) With conical stiffener at the optimum location, the maximum stress drops to 11.8 MPa
ANSYS stress calculations for the triple-spoke resonator, 350 MHz, = 0.4. The peak stress is 15 MPa [2.98]. • FNAL single spoke resonator β=0.22 and a 30 mm aperture β=0.22 and 325 MHz diameter [2.99]. Each end wall of the spoke resonator is reinforced by two systems of ribs: a tubular rib with elliptical section in the end wall outer region and six radial daisy-like ribs in the inner region (nose).
Ponderomotive effects • Ponderomotive effects: changes in frequency caused by the electromagnetic field • – Static Lorentz detuning (CW operation) • – Dynamic Lorentz detuning (pulsed operation) • Microphonics: changes in frequency caused by connections to the external world • – Vibrations • – Pressure fluctuations • Note: The two are not completely independent. When phase and amplitude feedbacks are active, the ponderomotive effects can change the response to external disturbances. • The electromagnetic fields in a cavity exert Lorentz forces on the cavity wall. The force per unit area (radiation pressure) is given by
Lorentz-force detuning Coupling parameter b • The Lorentz forces near the irises try to contract the cells, while forces near the equators try to expand the cells. • The residual deformation of the cavity shape shifts the resonant frequency of the accelerating mode from its original value by where DV is the small change in the cavity volume. • In the linear approximation, the steady-state Lorentz-force frequency shift at a constant accelerating gradient is • The quantity KL is called the Lorentz-force detuning constant. • The 9-cell TESLA cavities have KL = 1 Hz/(MV/m)2.
Lorentz-force detuning can be evaluated using a combination of mechanical and RF codes (e.g., SUPERFISH and Microwave Studio). H. Padamsee 32 H. Padamsee

The resonant frequency shifts with the square of the field amplitude distorting the frequency response. Typical detuning coefficients are a few Hz/(MV/m)2. A fast tuner is necessary to keep the cavity on resonance, especially for pulsed operation. A large LF coefficientcan generate “ponderomotive” oscillations, where small field amplitudeerrors initially induced by any source (e.g. beam loading), cause cavity detuning through Lorentz force and start a self-sustained mechanical vibration which makes cavity operation difficult. H. Padamsee 35 H. Padamsee
Stiffeners Stiffeners must be added to reduce the coefficient But these increase the tuning force. For the TESLA-shape 9-cell elliptical structure the LF detuning coefficient is about 2 - 3 Hz/MV/m2 resulting in a frequency shift of several kHz at 35 MV/m, much larger than the cavity bandwidth (300 Hz) chosen for matched beam loading conditions for a linear collider (or XFEL). Stiffening rings in the 9-cell structure reduce the detuning to about 1 Hz/MV/m2 at 35 MV/m pulsed operation. H. Padamsee 36 H. Padamsee
Feedforward techniques can further improve field stability. • In cw operation at a constant field the Lorentz Force causes a static detuning which is easily compensated by the tuner feedback, but may nevertheless cause problems during start-up which must also be dealt with by feedforward in the rf control system.
Microphonics • External vibrations couple to the cavity and excite mechanical resonances which modulate the rf resonant frequency - microphonics. • => Amplitude and phase modulations of the field becoming especially significant for a narrow rf bandwidth. H. Padamsee
