Charged Particle Acceleration in a 2-gap Accelerating Cavity z q
RF Surface: (Simplified) Niobium Surface, Tc=9.2 Kelvin Superconductivity ~40 nm
Electropolishing System for Low-beta Cavities A unique ANL technical capability to electropolish cavities as the final step in fabrication
Subcomponents: RF Couplers 4 kW RF Power ATLAS 4 kW Couplers
Issue of Maintaining the Clean Vacuum Space (a.k.a. Protection from the ATLAS Users) • 80 Kelvin ~1/2 meter long liquid nitrogen cooled cold traps installed at the entrance and exit for clean cryomodules • Volatiles, water, particulates adsorb to the surface of a 2.5” cm diameter copper tube • Gate valves at the entrance and exit of the cryomodule are interlocked to cold trap ion gauges • A fast acting valve (~10 mS) will isolate experimental areas from the accelerator in the event of a vacuum accident Cold trap Fast Valve RGA Cryomodule exit valve
The First Beam Delivered with the 72 MHz Intensity Upgrade Cryomodule First beam to experiment 20Ne6+ on Feb. 18, 2014 (Ave. Cavity Voltage 2 MV/cavity, Ave. Power per Cavity 1.3 Watts) Also of note, all cavities stable with respect to quench with EACC>12 MV/m, average value for field emission onset, EACC~9 MV/m (EPEAK~45 MV/m)
Testing at Liquid Helium Temperatures: Q versus E (Most Commonly Used Figure of Merit) Present Operations 2.5 MV/cavity
Context and Impact: SARAF Proton/Deuteron Accelerator In operation since 2009
Context and Impact: MSU Re-Accelerator (ReA3) In operation since 2011 C Planned for May 2014
Context and Impact: ISAC-II Heavy-ion Linac, 6 Cryomodules Commissioned 2006-2010
