800MHz CRAB CAVITY CONCEPTUAL DESIGN FOR THE LHC UPGRADE*
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract In this paper, we present an 800 MHz crab cavity conceptual design for the LHC upgrade. The cell shape is optimized for lower maximum peak surface fields as well as higher transverse R/Q. A compact coax-to-coax coupler scheme is proposed to damp the LOM/SOM modes. A two-stub antenna with a notch filter is used as the HOM coupler to damp the HOM modes in the horizontal plane and rejects the operating mode at 800MHz. Multipacting (MP) simulations show that there are strong MP particles at the disks. Adding grooves along the short axis without changing the operating mode’s RF characteristics can suppress the MP activities. Possible input coupler configurations are discussed.

Compact 400-mhz Half-wave Spoke Resonator Crab Cavity for the Lhc Upgrade*
Crab cavities are proposed for the LHC upgrade to improve the luminosity. There are two possible crab cavity installations for the LHC upgrade: the global scheme at Interaction Region (IR) 4 where the beambeam separation is about 420-mm, and the local scheme at the IR5 where the beam-beam separation is only 194mm. One of the design requirements as the result of a recent LHC-Crab cavity workshop...

A compact 400-MHz half-wave spoke resonator (HWSR) superconducting crab cavity is being developed for the LHC upgrade. The cavity shape and the LOM/HOM couplers for such a design have been optimized to meet the space and beam dynamics requirements, and satisfactory RF parameters have been obtained. As it is known that multipacting is an issue of concern in a superconducting cavity which may lim...

The HL-LHC upgrade will use deflecting (or crab) cavities to compensate for geometric luminosity loss at low * and non-zero crossing angle. A local scheme with crab cavity pairs across the IPs is used employing compact crab cavities at 400 MHz. Design of the cavities, the cryomodules and the RF system is well advanced. The LHC crab cavities will be validated initially with proton beam in the ...

An R&D program to establish a road map for the installation of crab cavities in the LHC is rapidly advancing. Both local and global crab schemes are under investigation to develop cavities that will be compatible with the LHC optics and meet the aperture requirements. Space and aperture constraints to accommodate a prototype crab cavity in the LHC along with related optics issues are presented....
متن کاملActive Lower Order Mode Damping for the Four Rod LHC Crab Cavity
The high luminosity upgrade planned for the LHC requires crab cavities to rotate bunches into alignment at the interaction points. They compensate for a crossing angle near to 500 μRad. It is anticipated that four crab cavities in succession will be utilized to achieve this rotation either side of each IP in a local crossing scheme. A crab cavity operates in a dipole mode but always has an acce...
