3 Introduction The SMTF collaboration has excellent resources in SRF expertise and existing facilities (shown later) We intend to be a strong collaboration by heavily utilizing available infrastructure and SRF people expertise in all labs. No single lab can handle the ILC or PD task To meet ILC, PD… goals we will need to upgrade facilities to fill in gaps (more later) We have formed the SMTF Technical Collaboration Board (of which I am the chair). Members are experts in the technical areas: –Cavities, Cryomodules, RF, Beam Tests, Industrialization We will meet regularly to discuss technical issues, organize workshops, advise SMTF board.

12 Technology Studies Details (Included here for reference only) Determine the maximum operating gradient of each cavity & its limitations. Evaluate gradient spread and its operational implications. Measure dark currents, cryogenic load, dark current propagation, and radiation levels. Measure alignment of the quadrupole, cavities and BPM in-situ using conventional techniques (e.g. wire or optical). Measure vibration spectra of the cryomodule components, especially the quadrupole magnet. Measure system trip rates and recovery times to assess availability. Develop LLRF exception handling software to automate system and reduce downtime. Evaluate failures with long recovery times: vacuum, tuners, piezocontrollers, and couplers. See talk by Mishra
13 Physics Measurements Details (Included here for reference only) Beam energy:a spectrometer would provide an independent and accurate measurement of the accelerating gradient (rf based techniques are not as accurate). Long-range wake-field characterization:Measure frequency spectra of bunch positions downstream of cryomodule to search for high Q cavity dipole modes that could cause beam break-up in the ILC.

16 The SC Proton Driver Option The Proton Driver is an 8 GeV SRF proton linac –For Neutrino Super-Beams & other new capabilities at FNAL The technology and R&D for the last 85% of the PD linac (1 GeV to 8 GeV) is identical to the ILC. Beta<1 “Squeezed TESLA” Linac –“SNS” SCRF linac at f = 1300 MHz “Pulsed RIA” Front End Linac –spoke SCRF cavities at 325 MHz See talk by Foster
17 Proton Driver Goals Fabricate test structures and associated cryomodules 325 MHz cavities in various ranges (like RIA but improved structures) = 0.47 and 0.61, 1300 MHz elliptical cavities Demonstrate high gradient operation in pulsed mode of 325 MHz, < 1 cavities and cryomodules.

19 LANL (APT)ANL (RIA)
20 RIA Goals (Overlap PD) Spokes are well developed technology but not tested with high power and not tested with beam Expand on-going RIA work, improve design Bare cavity tests, string assembly, module assembly Test modules Higher power couplers than before First beam tests with significant beams via PD front end
21 CW for Future Light Sources (1) Establish cryomodule and beam test areas using =1 pulsed test beam. Design and fabricate high Q accelerating cavities and a two cavity-cryomodule Demonstrate 20 MV/m CW cavity operation with Q values of ~ 3x –Jlab 7-cell (Renassence) 1.5 GHz cavities already reach 20 MV/m in vertical cavity tests at Q ≈ –Cryomodule tests on the way.
22 Higher Q is essential for Future Light Sources Based on CW SRF. –For future FELs and ERLs, e.g. Cornell, LBNL, MIT, based on linac energies of 0.75 GeV - 5 GeV, the refrigerator will be a major cost driver. –At 20 MV/m and Q = => 2 K dynamic heat load is 40 watt/m Compare to ILC 2 K heat dynamic heat load of ≈ 1 watt/m –5 GeV ERL would need 12 kW of 2 K refrigeration and 18 KW with standard engineering margin. Compare : JLAB now has 5 kW at 2 K
23 CW for Future Light Sources (2) Demonstrate wakefield suppression, HOM absorbers for CW cavities Solve heat load management for high CW heat load Demonstrate high stability and control of accelerating fields –Goals: phase error < 0.01° and amplitude error <10 -4 Fabricate deflecting cavities and a two-cavity cryomodule –Also supports ILC crab cavity development elsewhere. Demonstrate deflecting cavities at transverse kick voltage of 5 MV/m, and Q o > 5x10 9 –HOM (higher-order modes) and LOM (lower-order modes) damping validation, polarization control
24 Electron bunches receive a head-tail kick in a cw SRF dipole mode (TM 110 ) deflecting cavity, phased such that the beam centroid passes through the cavity at zero phase and receives no perturbation, while the head and tail receive transverse kicks in opposite directions. In a downstream radiating magnet or insertion device, the time-correlated transverse kick results in an angular or spatial distribution of the radiation emitted by electrons along the length of the bunch. The resulting extended x-ray pulse with correlated distribution may be imaged by asymmetrically-cut crystals or aberration-corrected x-ray optics, to result in an x-ray pulse of approximately picosecond duration. After the bunch radiates, the kick introduced is cancelled by a downstream deflecting cavity. High repetition rates, in principle as high as 500 MHz (ALS bunch rate), may be achievable using this technique, providing an ultrafast x-ray source with characteristics suitable for a variety of time-resolved photoemission and magnetism experiments.
