MuCool Test Area
• Facility to test all components of cooling channel (not a test of ionization cooling)– At high beam power
• Designed to accommodate full Linac Beam
• 1.6 X 1013 p/pulse @15 Hz
– 2.4 X 1014 p/s
– 600 W into 35 cm LH2 absorber @ 400 MeV
– RF power from Linac (201 and 805 MHz test stands)• Waveguides pipe power to MTA

805 MHz •Data seem to follow universal curve
– Max stable gradient degrades quickly with B field
•Remeasured– Same results– Does not condition

805 MHz Sparking Damage Curved Be Window after
Processing in Magnet Field
Small amount of sparking damage on upstream window at 12 o’clock (least damage seen in Studies). Cavity bright & clean. Damage on copper iris is mainly from previous testing.

RF R&D – 201 MHz Cavity Design•The 201 MHz Cavity is now operating
– New x-ray background data collected (see Alan’s talk)

201 MHz Cavity Status
•The flat Cu windows have been replaced w/curved Be windows
•Slower conditioning and more sparking than with the Cu. May be due to better clean room at J-Lab during initial installation.– However, MTA CR air quality was measured at class 100 or better
•So far the 201 w/Be windows has been conditioned to ~5MV/m
•No running for >3 weeks due to 201 power source problems – Note: The cavity is now out of tune (beyond the range of power source)
and must be re-tuned via the jacking screws
– Cavity frequency dropped ~400 kHz w/curved Be windows installed
– Will get help @Fermilab from LBNL to do the tuning

201 MHz Sparking Damage on Flat Copper Window

The inside of the cavity appeared bright & clean
•Very little spark damage after RF processing to 18 MV/m
•One copper splatter visible (photo)

Plans for the MTA
•Continue 805 MHz button tests w/bare & TiN coated buttons
•We have buttons made with the following metals– Tantalum – Tungsten – Molybdenum-zirconium alloy– Niobium– Niobium-titanium alloy– Stainless steel
•Continue conditioning 201 with Be windows (if power ever becomes available) without B field (after re-tuning).
– Then do B field scan • Can go up to few hundred gauss at present• Need new pumping system to go higher • And eventually Coupling Coil

Cavity Tuner Design Features•Six evenly spaced automatic tuners per cavity provide frequency adjustment
•Layout avoids interference with cavity ports
•Tuners touch cavity and apply loads only at the stiffener rings
•Tuners operate in “push” mode only (i.e. squeezing)
Summary of the RF Parallel Session Talks from MICE CM18

Four Cavity Layout in Vacuum Vessel •Tuner layout
rotated 30º @ cavity pairs
•Actuators are off cavity center plane to avoid coupling coil
•Bellows connections at vacuum vessel feedthroughs
•0 to -460 kHz tuning range (0 to -4 mm)
•1.6 MPa max. actuator pressure (50 mm)

•Six strut system provides kinematic cavity support
•Orthogonal strut layout is stiff and allows accurate cavity positioning
•Kinematic mounts fix cavity without over-constraint
Cavity Suspension System

Cavity Suspension System
1 vertical strut
2 horizontal struts
3 axial struts
Summary of the RF Parallel Session Talks from MICE CM18
Page 29Steve Virostek - Lawrence Berkeley National Lab
Strut End Connection Details
One end of the struts is attached to a fixed lug welded to the ID of the vacuum vessel
The cavity end of the vertical and one of the horizontal struts are attached directly to the stiffener ringThe cavity end of the axial and one of the horizontal struts are attached to the fixed leg of a tuner

Four Cavity Layout in Vacuum Vessel •Dedicated struts
(6) for each cavity
•No contact between cavity pairs
•Struts axially fix the outside walls of the cavity pairs
•Tuning deflections increase cavity gap

Page 31Steve Virostek - Lawrence Berkeley National Lab
Cavity Installation Sequence
•Pre-assemble cavities with Be windows and tuners (w/o actuators)
•Slide inner cavities into vacuum vessel using spacer/alignment blocks
•Shim cavity to align tuner & coupler vacuum feedthrus with tuner mounts and cavity ports
•Install struts, tuner actuators and RF couplers
•Repeat same process for outer cavities

Coupling Coil Integration Topics
•New coupling coil design developed by LBNL & ICST (Harbin)
•Increased coil length (+35 mm to 285 mm) results in longer vacuum vessel
•Integration issues w/tuners and RF, vacuum & diagnostic cavity ports
•Must transmit magnetic forces from the cold mass supports to the vacuum vessel
•New 3D model developed by LBNL for integration
