Many devices installed along the machine introduce parasitic cavities which are undesired and give rise to wake fields and resonances, which on turn contribute in destabilizing the beam. These resonances are often damped using dispersive or resistive materials placed in specific points in the cavity. This paper analyzes numerically the possibility to use of simple metamaterial insertions to perform the mode damping.","PeriodicalId":143626,"journal":{"name":"2015 9th International Congress on Advanced Electromagnetic Materials in Microwaves and Optics (METAMATERIALS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130828872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper explores the possibility for using CCG as a power transfer channel by studying terminal matching conditions which can give the optimum power transfer efficiency.
