4 P. Bosland - SRF Collaboration 15 December 2015 Daresbury Vertical Tests of two β0.86 prototype cavities Both prototype cavities met the ESS requirements after the first test. Slight degradation (pollution) of performances after 600°C heat treatment for hydrogen removing : => Tests performed in a second vertical cryostat with problems of magnetic shielding that could explain this degradation.

5 P. Bosland - SRF Collaboration 15 December 2015 Daresbury Dangerous HOM close to MHz 704 MHz 1421,32 MHz Both high beta prototype cavities are not conform with the ESS HOM Requirement Reminder: “All higher order modes (HOMs) shall be at least 5 MHz away from integer multiples of the beam-bunching frequency ( MHz) for any HOMs whose resonant frequencies are below the cut-off frequency of the beam-pipe” Design (at 300K) Measured on ESS086-P01 Calculated with measured shape (HFSS) Measured on ESS086-P02 Calculated with measured shape (HFSS) 3D measurements of the cavity shape have been performed Shape reconstructed in the simulation software HFSS The strong internal shape deviation close to the equator > 1 mm explains very well the frequency decrease of the two dangerous HOMs. Special care on the cavity cells shape has to be taken for the next cavities Slater coefficient analysis which represents frequency sensitivity to volume changes
