  RFQ at ESS has been successfully gone through RF conditioning, RF re-conditioning and low duty cycle beam commissioning. RFQ fulfills required functions and overall performance is satisfactory. RF conditioning, three RF re-conditionings after LEBT intervention and beam commissioning will be reported and RFQ performance during these periods will be described. RFQ performance in a large extent is reflected by dynamics and interactions between RF, cavity and beam. Thanks to advanced hardware capabilities and intelligent software intelligence, observation of those dynamics and interactions are done in detailed level. Analysis of those dynamics and interaction will be introduced. Some techniques to deal with challenges resulted from those dynamics and interactions will also be discussed.

  Medical and industrial electron linacs can benefit from the X-band accelerating technology developed for the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) at CERN. However, when high-intensity beams are injected in such high-gradient structures (>35 MV/m), the beam loading effect must be considered by design since this beam-cavity interaction can result in a considerable gradient reduction with respect to the unloaded case. Studying energy conservation, a partial differential equation (PDE) has been derived for injected beams, in both the relativistic and ultrarelativistic limit. Making use of this, a specific simulation package within RF-track has been developed, allowing realistic tracking of charged particle bunches under this effect regardless of their initial velocity. The performance of such tool has been assessed by reproducing previously obtained beam loaded fields in CLIC main linac and CLIC Drive-Beam linac structures. In this paper we present the analytic PDE derivation and the results of the tests.

  In multi-turn Energy Recovery Linacs (ERLs), the filling pattern describes the order that which bunches are injected into the ERL ring. The filling patterns and recombination schemes together can create various beam loading patterns/transients, which can have a big impact on the RF system, namely the cavity fundamental mode voltage, required RF power, and beam breakup instability. In this work, we demonstrate one can lower the cavity voltage fluctuation and rf power consumption by carefully choosing the right transient by using an analytical model and simulation.

TH1AA06 Low Level RF Control Algorithms for the CERN Proton LINAC4 cavity, linac, LLRF, klystron 673

  The CERN Linac4 Low Level RF (LLRF) uses a Linear Gaussian Regulator and an Adaptive Feed Forward to regulate the accelerating field in the cavities in the presence of strong beam loading. A Klystron Polar Loop is also implemented to compensate the RF perturbations caused by the ripples and droop in the klystron High Voltage supply. The talk presents the important parts of the regulation, shows results as the system has evolved from first prototype (2013) to operational beams (2020), and mentions some important issues encountered during the commissioning and the first years of operation, with their mitigations.
