Clamped-Iris Structure Tests in CTF II

Accelerating Structure Tests in CTF II Short, 16 ns rf pulses New Record for classical accelerating structures !

Overview of 30 GHz results Reached nominal 30 GHz CLIC values : 150 MV/m 70 ns Molybdenum shows higher gradient but different slope HDS performs worse than round brazed structure

Hybrid Damped Structure (HDS) CLIC damped and detuned accelerating structure: 30 GHz, 150 MV/m, 70 ns, < 10-6 trip probability

Accelerating Structures made out of milled quadrants HDS60

New Materials for High-Gradient Copper has still the best performance at low break down rate

Damage vs aperture or group velocity HDS60 Large HDS60 Small Evidence for correlation between damage and power flow (a,vg,P): Criteria for optimizing rf designs (P/C): Px(t1/3)/p/2a < threshold

Conclusions on recent structure tests (some of them preliminary) Current CLIC design within experimentally demonstrated region 27 wue have been measured (Design used 18) 120 MW input Power for 100 ns into first cell of T53 (the structures showing a promising gradient are not damped) Hybrid Damped Structures show performance deficit (short phase advance, slots, quadrants and milling) Copper is still the best material to make accelerating structures (Molybdenum still has some potential, shallow slope seen in previous experiments could be due to iris clamping, slow processing as usual) Exactly scaled structures seem to perform independent of frequency (therefore 30 GHz test are still meaningful) Some doubts on P/C theory used to optimize this years structures Quadrant technology appears not mature Short phase advance seems not beneficial
