Vacuum Performance Simulation of C-band<br />

Accelerating Structures, Huijea Lee, Moo-Hyun<br />

Park (PAL, Pohang, Kyungbuk) - A C-band<br />

accelerating structure has a higher accelerating<br />

gradient than that of the S-band structure. It provides<br />

a good benefit of a shorter machine length. In order<br />

to effectively use RF power and for cost reduction,<br />

the accelerating structure should be as long as<br />

possible. We propose a 2.2-m long structure<br />

compared to 1.8-m at XFEL/SPring-8. However,<br />

longer accelerating structure has worse vacuum<br />

performance than shorter accelerating structure.<br />

Thus, vacuum conductance of 2.2-m long structure<br />

has to be checked. We calculate vacuum<br />

performance of accelerating structure by analytical<br />

method and FEM. In this paper, we present that the<br />

vacuum performance for the 2.2-m long accelerating<br />

structure is safe enough for the XFEL LINAC.<br />

Performance of Amorphous Carbon Coating for<br />

the Mitigation of Electron Cloud in the SPS,<br />

Christina Yin Vallgren, Paolo Chiggiato, Pedro<br />

Elena Shaposhnikova, Mauro Taborelli (CERN,<br />

Geneva) - Amorphous carbon (a-C) coatings have<br />

been tested in electron cloud monitors (ECM) in the<br />

Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) and have shown for<br />

LHC type beams a reduction of the EC current by a<br />

factor 10E4 compared to stainless steel (SS). This<br />

performance has been maintained for more than 2<br />

years under SPS operation conditions. Secondary<br />

electron yield (SEY) laboratory data confirm that<br />

after 1 year of SPS operation, the coating maintains<br />

a SEY below 1. The compatibility of coexisting SS<br />

and a-C surfaces has been studied in an ECM having<br />

coated and uncoated areas. The results show no<br />

degradation of the properties of the a-C areas. The<br />

performance of diamond like carbon (DLC) coating<br />

has also been studied. DLC shows a less effective<br />

�<br />

34<br />

reduction of the EC current than a-C, but<br />

conditioning is faster than for SS. Three a-C coated<br />

dipoles were inserted in the SPS. However, even<br />

with no EC detected, the dynamic pressure rise is<br />

similar to the one observed in the SS reference<br />

dipoles. Measurement in a new ECM equipped with<br />

clearing electrodes to verify the relation between<br />

pressure signals and intensity of the EC, as well as<br />

an improvement of the diagnostics in the dipoles are<br />

in progress.<br />

correct functioning of the LHC Collimation System<br />

is crucial to attain the desired LHC luminosity<br />

performance. However, the requirements to handle<br />

high intensity beams can be demanding. In this<br />

respect, the robustness of the collimators plays an<br />

important role. An accident which causes the proton<br />

beam to hit a collimator might result in severe beaminduced<br />

damage and, in some cases, replacement of<br />

the collimator, with consequent downtime for the<br />

machine. In this paper, several case studies<br />

representing different realistic beam impact<br />

scenarios will be shown. A preliminary analysis of<br />

the thermo-mechanical response of several<br />

collimators to beam impact will be presented, from<br />

which the most critical cases can then be identified.<br />

Such work will also help to give an initial insight on<br />

the operational constraints of the LHC by taking into<br />

account all relevant collimator damage limits.<br />

Recent Developments on the IFMIF/EVEDA<br />

Beam Dump Cooling Circuit, Marcos Parro,<br />

David Rapisarda (CIEMAT, Madrid) - During the<br />

IFMIF/EVEDA activities a conical dump made of<br />

copper has been designed to stop the 125 mA, 9<br />

MeV, D+ beam. This element will receive a total<br />

power of ~1 MW. It is cooled by a high velocity
