Challenges of a proton driver : technological limits and cost optimisation Conclusions 2 Why high power? pion production vs. incoming proton beam energy (30 cm long mercury target) 3 Power Space charge, beam loading Economics RF power; cooling, activation Power = current *energy*pulse length*repetition Powerful source Powerful and efficient accelerators rate High duty cycle 4 Accelerator dynamics RF CAVITY MAGNET dp dx q E B dt dt In order to increase the energy of a beam of particles while keeping them confined in space, we need to provide a longitudinal field for ACCELERATION and a transverse force for FOCUSING. 5 RF cavity Building block for transferring energy to the beam dp dx q E B dt dt dW dx dp dt dt dt 6 principle of acceleration RF power supply 1) RF power source: generator of electromagnetic wave of a specified frequency 2) Cavity : space enclosed in a metallic boundary which resonates with the frequency of the wave and tailors the field pattern to the 3) Wave guide Power coupler Beam : flux of particles that pass through the cavity when the field is maximized for acceleration Cavity 7 designing an accelerator cavity design : 1) control the field pattern inside the cavity; 2) minimise the ohmic losses on the walls/maximise the stored energy. beam dynamics design : 1) control the timing between the field and the particle, 2) insure that the beam is kept in the smallest possible volume during acceleration 8 electric field in a cavity assume that the solution of the wave equation in a bounded medium can be written as E( x, y, z, t ) E ( x, y, z ) F (t ) function of space function of time oscillating between -1 and 1 9 cavity parameters-0 average electric field ( E0 measured in V/m) is the space average of the electric field along the direction of propagation of the beam in a given moment in time when F(t) is maximum. L 1 E0 Ez ( x 0, y 0, z )dz L0 physically it gives a measure how much field is available for acceleration it depends on the cavity shape, on the resonating mode and on the frequency 10 cavity parameters-1 Shunt impedance ( Z measured in Ω/m) is defined as the ratio of the average electric field squared (E0 ) to the power per unit length dissipated on the wall surface. Z E 2 0 L P Z 2 0 E dL dP Physically it is a measure of well we concentrate the RF power in the useful region . NOTICE that it is independent of the field level and cavity lenght, it depends on the cavity mode and geometry. 11 cavity parameters-2 Quality factor ( Q dimention-less) is defined as the ratio between the stored energy and the power lost on the wall in one RF cycle 2 f Q U P Q is a function of the geometry and of the surface resistance of the material superconducting : Q= 1010 normal conducting : Q=104 example at 700MHz 12 cavity parameters-3 transit time factor ( T, dimensionless) is defined as the maximum energy gain of a particles traversing a cavity over the average field of the cavity. Write the field as Ez( x, y, z, t ) Ez ( x, y, z )e i (t ) The energy gain of a particle entering the cavity on axis at phase φ is L W qEz (o, o, z )e i (t ) dz 0 13 cavity parameters-3 assume constant velocity through the cavity (APPROXIMATION!!) we can relate position and time via z v t ct we can write the energy gain as W qE0 LT cos and define transit time factor as L E z e j z c z T 0 L E z dz z 0 dz T depends on the particle velocity and on the gap length. IT DOESN”T depend on the field 14 cavity parameters-3 NB : Transit time factor depends on x,y (the distance from the axis in cylindrical symmetry). By default it is meant the transit ime factor on axis Exercise!!!

There is space to insert quadrupoles in the drift tubes to provide the strong transverse focusing needed at low energy or high intensity 2. The cell length () can increase to account for the increase in beta the DTL is the ideal structure for the low - low W range 55 Focusing in the DTL vs RFQ 56 RFQ vs. DTL DTL can't accept low velocity particles, there is a minimum injection energy in a DTL due to mechanical constraints 57 Side Coupled Linac 58 The Side Coupled Linac multi-cell Standing Wave structure in /2 mode frequency 800 - 3000 MHz for protons (=0.5 - 1) Rationale: high beta cells are longer advantage for high frequencies • at high f, high power (> 1 MW) klystrons available long chains (many cells) • long chains high sensitivity to perturbations operation in /2 mode Side Coupled Structure: - from the wave point of view, /2 mode - from the beam point of view, mode 59 Room Temperature SW structure: The LEP1 cavity 5-cell Standing Wave structure in mode frequency 352 MHz for electrons (=1) To increase shunt impedance : 1. “noses” concentrate E-field in “gaps” 2. curved walls reduce the path for RF currents “noses” BUT: to close the hole between cells would “flatten” the dispersion curve introduce coupling slots to provide magnetic coupling 60 example of a mixed structure : the cavity coupled drift tube linac linac with a reasonable shunt impedance in the range of 0.2 < < 0.5, i. e. at energies which are between an optimum use of a DTL and an SCL accelerator 61 Various types of cavity : Coupled cavity CCDTL (medium energy ~5-100 MeV) CCL (high energy ~80 MeV-2 GeV) 62 Example of use of effective shunt impedance ZT2 19 MeV 45 MeV 85 MeV 234 MeV 375 MeV The effective shunt impedance of the structures has been chosen to set the transition energy between sections for TRISPAL project (C. Bourra, Thomson). 63 overview take with CAUTION! Ideal range of beta frequency RFQ Low!!! - 0.05 40-400 MHz DTL 0.04-0.5 100-400 MHz CCDTL 0.2-0.6 200-400 MHz SCL Ideal Beta=1 But as low as beta 0.5 800 - 3000 MHz 64 After 200 MeV : SC structure Elliptical (high energy ~100MeV- 2 GeV) 65 Modern trends in linacs Superconductivity is now bridging the gap between electron and ion linacs. The 9-cell TESLA SC cavities at 1.3 GHz for electron linear colliders, are now proposed for High Power Proton Accelerators… 66 SC Modular : advantage for construction cost … disadvantage for Beta<1 Low RF losses : all the power goes to the beam 67 Linacs made of superconducting cavities Need to standardise construction of cavities: only few different types of cavities are made for some ’s more cavities are grouped in cryostats Example: CERN design, SC linac 120 - 2200 MeV 68 phase slippage Lcavity = βgλ/2 particle enters the cavity with βs< βg. It is accelerated the particle has not left the cavity when the field has changed sign : it is also a bit decelerated the particle arrives at the second cavity with a “delay” ........and so on and so on we have to optimize the initial phase for minimum phase slippage for a given velocity there is a maximum number of cavity we can accept in a tank 69 Phase slippage In each section, the cell length (/2, mode!) is correct only for one beta (energy): at all other betas the phase of the beam will differ from the design phase Example of phase slippage: CERN design for a 352 MHz SC linac Four sections: = 0.52 (120 - 240 MeV) = 0.7 (240 - 400 MeV) = 0.8 (400 MeV - 1 GeV) = 1 (1 - 2.2 GeV) Phase at the first and last cell of each 4-cell cavity (5-cell at =0.8) 70 limit to the field in a cavity normal heating sparking super conducting : conducting : magnetic field on the surface quenching 71 Limit to the final energy of a LINAC NC linac : power that it takes to run the facility. Tipically stop at few hundreds MeV. 1 GeV is the max and at low duty cycle. SC linac : 15 MV/m real estate gradient After beta=1 one needs some 60-70 m for each additional GeV 72 After few GeV….

Shave the linac beam to match the RF bucket of the ring Perform the chopping at low enough energy but when the beam has already imprinted the RF structure, i.e. after the first stage of acceleration. 78 Chopping-example LOSSES 2.84 ns Beam from a 352 MHz linac injected in a 40 MHz ring 2.84 ns Injected in the stable area of the bucket : no losses 79 H- injection through a foil Proton 5 turn injection.
