Almomani, Ulrich Ratzinger","doi":"10.1103/physrevaccelbeams.27.040101","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevaccelbeams.27.040101","url":null,"abstract":"The development of cross-bar H-type cavities (CH-DTL, <math display=\"inline\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mrow><msub><mi>H</mi><mn>21</mn></msub></mrow></math> mode) is ongoing to improve the technology of this attractive type of drift tube linac (DTL). In comparison with the conventional DTL, the H-type cavities can reach a higher effective field gradient and are competitive in shunt impedance at an energy range up to 100 A MeV. H-mode DTL’s profit in shunt impedance additionally when applying the KONUS beam dynamics. They are in use at research laboratories as well as at hospitals. This paper describes a new concept to approach the zero mode in CH-type cavities, by extending the cavity diameter at the tank ends in combination with tilted drift tube stems. RFQs of the four-vane type are operated as well in the <math display=\"inline\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mrow><msub><mi mathvariant=\"normal\">H</mi><mn>210</mn></msub></mrow></math> mode and the strategy for voltage flattening can be partly applied there too if conventional vane undercuts are causing problems. Up to around 35 MeV, it is attractive to integrate one or more triplet lenses into each cavity, as one KONUS section is relatively short and would not exploit the full rf power of 3 MW klystrons which are available above 300 MHz. Such a cavity is denoted as a coupled CH-cavity CCH. Three possible arrangements of those internal triplet lenses are discussed and are compared to each other. The operating modes as well as higher modes are then compared with a lens-free CH cavity, where the lens position was filled by ordinary drift tubes. As a result, it is shown that the rf behavior and resonance frequency for the higher harmonics of the frequency band are very similar for all four investigated arrays. This means, that the tuning behavior of the CCH cavity can be simply deduced from the lens-free CH cavity by replacing an even number of ordinary drift tubes (<math display=\"inline\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mrow><mi mathvariant=\"normal\">n</mi><mi>β</mi><mi>λ</mi></mrow></math>) with a lens-containing drift tube with adequate length and large outer diameter. This large drift tube itself oscillates like an Alvarez-type drift tube. rf simulations on a 30-gap CH cavity show that the reduction in shunt impedance is about 10% when installing a lens with length 2 beta lambda.","PeriodicalId":54297,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Accelerators and Beams","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140599561","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}

This density modulation is a result of Coulomb collisions between the individual particles of the two beams. The pairwise, stochastic part of the interactions impacts the overall performance of the CeC process. We present the first simulations of the density modulations of the electron beams from a collisional picture of the dynamics, considering the proof-of-principle CeC experiments at Brookhaven National Laboratory. These simulations were performed using PHAD, which is the first efficient, large-scale collisional numerical method in beam physics that we have previously developed and benchmarked. Realistic beam distributions and external fields have been optimized to provide strong modulation signals necessary for variations of coherent electron cooling systems. Cooling performance limits and potential collisionless simulation pitfalls are pointed out.","PeriodicalId":54297,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Accelerators and Beams","volume":"79 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140598913","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 chopper system includes an rf deflector that kicks every bunch vertically to spatially separate main and satellite bunches. A constant magnetic field superimposed with the chopper electric field biases the beam trajectory to ensure the high-intensity bunches do not experience a net deflection and are injected straight to the ReA6 cryomodule or sent for experiments. The kicked bunches are low in intensity and will be sent to a beam dump, resulting in a clean 16.1 MHz beam structure, which allows for a reliable time-of-flight separation of the isotopes.","PeriodicalId":54297,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Accelerators and Beams","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140602105","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}

In order to fully explore this potential, proper matching of intense coupled beams along regular lattices is mandatory. Herein, a novel procedure assuring matched transport is described and benchmarked through simulations. The concept of matched transport along periodic lattices has been extended from uncoupled beams to those with considerable coupling between the two transverse degrees of freedom. For coupled beams, matching means the extension of cell-to-cell periodicity from just transverse envelopes to the coupled beam moments and to quantities being derived from these.","PeriodicalId":54297,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Accelerators and Beams","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140168193","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 incoherent effects represent the single particle dynamics while the coherent effects represent the collective response of the beam.

With pic simulations, which resemble the behavior of the real beams more closely as compared to envelope calculations or the particle core model, it is possible to study the evolution of the beam in a self-consistent manner. Our studies show, that it is possible to identify the specific process responsible for beam degradation in high intensity beams. It is also possible to identify which process dominates under different conditions. We further show that the width of the emittance increase stop band calculated from PIC simulations is wider than that calculated by the envelope equations and that the width depends on the length of the channel being studied.","PeriodicalId":54297,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Accelerators and Beams","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140203578","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}
