Field emission and multipacting CEBAF Increased field emission over time He processing successful but not always Current approach is mitigation via cryomodule re-work and particulate control Plasma processing being considered EuXFEL Couple of examples of successful processing of field emitters Some cavities routinely operated in quench regime (cryo acceptable “soft” quench) Observed plasma discharges (e- quench) ISAC-II Maintenance and refurbishment program essential to increase available gradient Common issues: Q disease, magnetic pollution from solenoids, multipacting happens < 100 kV for QWR, field emission (residual gas after thermal cycle), Yearly warm up cool down (cost saving reasons but increase nb of issues) Multipacting processing in SEL speed up process 08.02.2019 TTC 2019 - WG1 summary

Lessons learnt Fortunate to have speakers who are “not conventional TTC participants”, valuable point of view for TTC Not enough time for discussion during session Schedule less talks More time for discussion We proposed a structure for WG1 talks: Problem statement, known solutions, future tests, proposed collaboration Several talks followed More needed - Focus on issues, (not a PR talk) 08.02.2019 TTC 2019 - WG1 summary
Thank you to all WG1 speakers and thank you for your attention! 08.02.2019 TTC 2019 - WG1 summary
