RF-Gun for Phase-II RF Gun workshop @ 10, June, 2016
Schedule Last RF-Gun review Done On going Reconfigure thermal gun for positron generation Step by step RF-Gun RF ageing. Done SuperKEKB injection using stabilized existing undergroud laser (25Hz) New laser system in 3-2 and A-1 ground laser room Increase stability & pulse energy from fiber laser Simplify the laser system (Nd/Yb Regenerative amplifier) On going Third RF-Gun (nomal laser injection / cavity modification / cathode change) Simple Nd amplifier for Phase-I & II stable injection Following the RF-Gun reviewer’s comments (Postponed the pulse shaping until Phase-III ) 10 ps gaussian is enough for Phase-I (1nC) & II (2nC), postponed the pulse shaping until Phase-III
RF-Gun for Phase-II RF-Gun (Natsui) Cathode (Sato) Backup SC-QTW is already available (RF ageing was done) New CDS-type RF-Gun is under fabrication Second RF-Gun will be installed in this summer shutdown with 90-degree arc section. Cathode (Sato) Better QE uniformity : Ir7Ce2
Second RF gun on the 45 degree line Normal laser injection RF conditining at 6-1 is on going before installation. Studies on CDS-type RF-Gun cavity. Normal laser injection. Changeable cathode including thermal assist IrCe. Angled laser injection
Choke mode cathode rod fix Breakdown at cathode rod is one of the problem. New gun will be choke structure. Dummy cathode rod is used. No cathode, all copper.
Simple cavity RF gun is developed for test Cut Disk Structure (CDS)
