Multipass regenerative Beam Break Up is caused by interaction of the beam with dipole Higher Order Modes Cockcroft Wakefields Interest Group Emma Wooldridge

Threshold current • This is the highest current at which the beam can remain stable • Equation given is for one cavity and one HOM Cockcroft Wakefields Interest Group Emma Wooldridge
Increasing the current • Decrease HOM Q • Decrease R12, R34 • Decrease HOM R/Q • Increase the injection energy Cockcroft Wakefields Interest Group Emma Wooldridge
Lowering Q • Including ferrite dampers next to the cavity can increase the threshold • They remove power from higher order modes at a large range of frequencies Cockcroft Wakefields Interest Group Emma Wooldridge
Position of Dampers • Tiles made from three different materials to ensure good coupling to a broad frequency range Cockcroft Wakefields Interest Group Emma Wooldridge
Altering the Cavity • Introduce small defects in each cell to split the degeneracy of dipole modes • Early results suggest that alternating the perturbation in x then y produces higher thresholds • Further tests required • Could this be errors in the model? Cockcroft Wakefields Interest Group Emma Wooldridge
Change Rij • R12and R34 relate the displacement to the momentum of the bunch for the x and y direction respectively • By minimising this value for each cavity the threshold can be maximised • As the number of cavities increases this criteria becomes more difficult to implement • Can require point to point focusing Cockcroft Wakefields Interest Group Emma Wooldridge
Reflection • Reflection about 45°, x becomes y, y becomes x • Providing the HOMs are orientated on x and y BBU is completely suppressed • Realistic gain in threshold, 2 to 3 times the original value Cockcroft Wakefields Interest Group Emma Wooldridge
Rotation • Rotation by 90°, x becomes y, y becomes –x • If the transport for x and y is identical and the transport along the linac axis is symmetric then BBU is suppressed in all cavities • Simulations suggest 100 fold increase in threshold • Realistic gain in threshold, 10 times the original value? Cockcroft Wakefields Interest Group Emma Wooldridge
Future Work • Investigate the HOM damper • Lowering of HOM Q • Verify cavity perturbation results • Investigate methods to increase the threshold by reflection or rotation Cockcroft Wakefields Interest Group Emma Wooldridge
