SLAC Accelerator Development Program: X-Band Applications
Chris Adolphsen
OHEP Accelerator Development ReviewJanuary 24-26, 2011
X-band Development Objectives• Long Term: Provide Higher Energy Reach for a Linear Collider
– CLIC assumes ~100 MV/m acceleration in X-band structure powered with a drive beam
– Collaborating with them to use X-band klystrons to drive the structures as a first stage to reduce the technical risk and allow earlier construction
• Short Term: Other Applications – X-band ideal for compact (50-100 MV/m gradient), low bunch charge (e.g.
250 pC) linacs, in particular light sources similar to LCLS– Allows developments from the US High Gradient program to be
implemented on a larger scale
• Immediate: Expand Vendor Base– Improve X-band klystron performance and have industry build them (see
previous talk).SLAC Accelerator Development Program

World’s Highest Gradient (80 MV/m)Accelerator in Routine Operation
CLIC Collaboration (CERN/SLAC/KEK)• High Gradient Characterization Prototype CLIC Linac Structures
– T18 series – first optimized structure with ramped gradient design– T24 series – next iteration structure optimized for higher efficiency
• Special Structures/Tests to Explore Breakdown Limits– Pulse heating study with the TD18 structure– Dual Mode Cavity– C10 structures
• High Power Tests of Power Extraction Structures (PETS)– Nominally driven with 100 A beams, which are not available – Instead test rf-driven versions
• Structure Simulations (see Arno Candel’s talk later today)– Dark current propagation within structure– Dipole mode propagation between the PETS and main accelerator
structures

Gradients Achieved at a CLIC-Acceptable Breakdown Rate
Pulsed Heating Effect in TD18It appears that for pulsed temperature
increases above ~ 50 degC, the breakdown rate becomes strongly dependent on this heating

Dual Mode Cavity for Heating/Field Study
Built rf cavity resonant in two modes, which when driven independently, allow the rf magnetic field to be increased on the region of highest electric field without affecting the latter
So far have powered the TEM3 mode, achieving 200 MV/m surface fields

Structure Performance vs Group Velocity
• At ASTA, have measured two 10 cell, constant impedance TW structures (C10), with group velocities of 1.35 % and 0.7 % of c.
• Breakdowns appear to be mostly on first regular cell – in process of redesigning the coupler

couple to a 100 A drive beam to extract rf power• Second rf-driven version tested at ASTA, which included
HOM absorbers, met breakdown rate specs at 135 MW

CXFEL wakefield effects are comparable at the upstream end of the linac as the lower bunch charge and shorter bunch length offset the lower energy, however the bunch emittance is 25 times larger

X-Band Gun Development (with LLNL)
Emittance ~ 0.5 micron for a 250 pC Bunch, Longitudinal Emittance Less Than ½ of that at LCLS
Comparison of 4D emittance along the gun computed with ImpactT (‘instant’ space charge) and PIC 3D (‘delayed’ space charge plus wakes with true geometry) at two bunch charges and three laser offsets
Optimization Using Stacked LasersAt NLCTA, will be able to run
short laser pulses and stack two pulses.
For 250 pC bunches, emittance = 0.3 mm (95% particles) with single Gaussian (500 fs FWHM) vs 0.25 mm (95% particles) with stack of two Gaussians (300 fs FWHM each).

Summary• Our X-band program builds on the 15 year effort at SLAC
to develop this technology for a linear collider• Have extensive resources including several high power
X-band stations and experts in rf and accelerator design• There has been a revival of interest in X-band in recent
years with the– Adoption of the technology by CLIC– Use of X-band linearizers in existing FELs– Desire for compact linacs for future light sources
• Our program is geared to meeting this growing demand, while in the long term, seeking a cost effective solution for a multi-TeV collider
