Summaryof T18_VG2.4_Disk #2 • Breakdown rates at steady-stare operation of 80 MV/m is approximately 0.75 x10-6 BD/Pulse/m . • We are going to do the high gradient experiments until the end of March. • The total run time will reach up to about 3000 h. • We are trying to estimate the BDR from the dark currant measurements.
TD18_VG2.4_Quad_#5 Quadrant 13/27
Measurement of TD18_VG2.4_Quad_#5 • Measurements at CERN for TD18_quad made in CERN give -2.23 dB. • Comparing to this, KEK quad gives 2.56dB measured in transmission mode. About 0.33dB more attenuation due to some reason. • -2.56dB = t=0.295 Q/Q~83% is all attributed to t~1/Q 14/27

Summary of narrow waveguide • We’re conducting the high-gradient experiments of Cu004 to confirm the previous data of Cu002 and to measure BDR of copper type. - Prototype Cu002 and SUS003 had been tested under different system conditions (at XTF and Nextef). - Number of break down events for SUS003 is less than that for Cu002 which may be a result of different systems . • We’re planning to testother materials. • We’re trying to make a new narrow waveguide; one side is made of copper and the other side is made of stainless-steel. We might know the surface damage of different materials at the same RF power. 26/27
