The TPS has a bunch length of approximately 4.5 mm at routine operation with a beam current of 500 mA. This short bunch length leads to a brief Touschek lifetime and high parasitic loss in in-vacuum insertion devices. To address this issue, a 1.5 GHz two-cell superconducting RF (SRF) passive harmonic cavity (HC) operating at 4.5 K has been designed for the TPS. The anticipated bunch lengthening factors, accounting for phase transient effects, range from 1.5 to 2.3 for different bunches. Beyond performance enhancement, the study of the instability of the electron beam is also an important task. This work investigates the instability during high beam current operation with the SRF HC. This paper delves into the details of theoretical calculations, the methodology of multi-bunch multi-particle tracking simulation, and presents the results of the instability study.","PeriodicalId":13104,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity","volume":"35 5","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142875111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, the effects of Dy doping on the properties of YBCO tapes and the combination of Dy doping and BHO nanocrystal addition are investigated. The results show that Dy doping significantly enhances the self-field performance of YBCO tapes. The subsequent addition of BHO nanocrystals after Dy doping further improves the self-field performance by 250 A/12 mm-w. In contrast, the low-temperature field performance of Dy-doped and BHO-added YBCO tapes decreases significantly when compared to pure YBCO tapes. Such results suggest that different rare earth substitutions can play different roles in improving the self-field and in-field properties of YBCO superconducting films.","PeriodicalId":13104,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity","volume":"35 5","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142875077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The major part of the magnetic field will be achieved thanks to a High Temperature Superconductor (HTS) insulated insert based on the Robust Coil concept. This design features, for each turn, two tapes wound together, in direct contact to enhance the coil's protection. However, a drawback of this architecture is the development of coupling currents caused by variations in the axial component of the magnetic field. These currents lead to additional losses and affect the quality of the magnetic field. This work focuses specifically on the impact of these coupling currents on the magnetic field quality at the location of the future samples in the context of developing a user magnet. The case study of this work is a large-scale prototype of the future HTS insert. To achieve this objective, numerical simulations were conducted to differentiate what are the qualitative effects of coupling currents and screening currents. The results showed that these currents have opposite effects on the magnetic field at the sample position. Additionally, the large-scale prototype experienced long current plateaus, during which the magnetic field was measured. The variations of the latter were driven by the relaxation of these opposing effects, each exhibiting different rates and relaxation times.","PeriodicalId":13104,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity","volume":"35 5","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142875081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
