MOPORI15 | Update of Adjustable PMQ Lens | quadrupole, permanent-magnet, focusing, dipole | 262 |
|
|||
Gluckstern’s adjustable permanent magnet quadrupole (PMQ) lens based on five rings is revisited to achieve a compact focusing system for laser-accelerated beams. The first prototype was fabricated for bore diameter of 50 mm. The integrated gradient was up to 6.8 T. A new PMQ with a bore diameter of 25 mm is under fabrication based on the same geometry. While the first prototype unit was developed for the final focus magnet of the ILC, the sec-ond unit is the first doublet element for laser-accelerated electron beam focusing to be combined with this first unit. The current status of the development is reported. | |||

WE2AA02 | RELIEF: Tanning of Leather with e-beam | electron, simulation, radiation, FEL | 645 |
|
|||
Funding: STFC through the grant reference ST/S002189/1, and the Cockcroft Institute core grant, STFC grant reference ST/P002056/1. Tanning of leather for clothing, shoes and handbags uses potentially harmful chemicals that are often run off into local water supplies or require a large carbon footprint to safely recover these pollutants. In regions of the world with significant leather production this can lead to a significant environmental impact. However recent studies have suggested that leather can instead be tanned using a combination of electron beams in a process inspired by the industrial crosslinking of polymers, to drastically reduce the quantity of wastewater produced in the process; thereby resulting in a reduced environmental impact as well as potential cost savings on wastewater treatment. In this talk, initial studies of leather tanning will be presented as well as accelerator designs for use in leather irradiation. |

THPOPA06 | Methods for VHEE/FLASH Radiotherapy Studies and High Dose Rate Dosimetry at the CLEAR User Facility | electron, radiation, experiment, focusing | 758 |
|
|||
The interest for Very High Energy Electron (VHEE) radiotherapy (RT) for cancer treatment recently bloomed, given the present availability of high-gradient accelerator technology for compact, cost effective electron linacs in the 100-200 MeV energy range. Particularly promising is the so called FLASH high dose rate regime, in which cancer cells are damaged while healthy tissue is largely spared. VHEE beams are especially adapted for FLASH RT, given their penetration depth and the high beam current, needed to treat large deep seated tumors. In the CERN Linear Accelerator for Research (CLEAR) facility, a series of unique studies have been initiated on VHEE and FLASH RT issues, in collaboration with several multidisciplinary user groups. In this paper we briefly outline the activities and its main recent results, e.g. on localized dose deposition by beam focusing, and on chemical and biological test to clarify damage mechanisms. We then describe in details the dedicated systems and the techniques adopted - and in large part locally developed by the CLEAR team - in order to satisfy the user requirements, with particular attention to the crucial aspect of high dose rate dosimetry. | |||

THPOGE02 | Investigation of HiPIMS-Coated S(I)S Structures for SRF Cavities | cavity, SRF, niobium, radio-frequency | 805 |
|
|||
The sustainable next generation particle accelerators require innovative solutions to overcome the current technological challenges set by existing bulk niobium superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities. Thin film-based multilayer structures in the form of superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) may be the long-sought-after breakthrough for higher performance SRF cavities by enhancing both accelerating gradients and quality factors. In order to understand better the underlying mechanisms of SIS structures to be coated onto (S)RF cavities, we study various material properties with the resultant superconducting properties of high-power im-pulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS)-coated S(I)S structures of Nb-(AlN)-NbN with different thicknesses which are designed to be coated mainly on OFHC copper (Cu) samples for more efficient SRF cavities. This contribution presents materials properties of the aforementioned HiPIMS-coated S(I)S structures as well as the superconducting and RF behaviours of these multilayers which are assessed comparatively via DC and AC magnetization techniques. | |||

THPOGE10 | RF Characterisation of Bulk Niobium and Thin Film Coated Planar Samples at 7.8 GHz | cavity, SRF, operation, superconducting-RF | 818 |
|
|||
Research is ongoing into the use of superconducting thin films to replace bulk niobium for future radio frequency (RF) cavities. A key part of this research requires measuring the RF properties of candidate films. However, coating and testing thin films on full-sized cavities is both costly and time-consuming. Instead, films are typically deposited on small, flat samples and characterised using a test cavity. A cost-effective facility for testing such samples has recently been built and commissioned at Daresbury Laboratory. The facility allows for low power surface resistance measurements at a resonant frequency of 7.8 GHz, temperatures down to 4 K and sample surface magnetic fields up to 1 mT. A brief overview of this facility as well as recent results from measurements of both bulk Nb and thin film coated samples will be presented. | |||

THPOGE19 | Field Shielding of NbTiN Based Multilayer Structure for Accelerating Cavities | cavity, niobium, SRF, shielding | 836 |
|
|||
Funding: NSF Grants PHY-1734075 and PHY-1416051, and DOE Awards DE-SC0010081 and DE-SC0019399 Over the past few decades, bulk niobium (Nb) has been the material of choice for superconducting radio frequen-cy (SRF) cavities used in particle accelerators to achieve higher accelerating gradients and lower RF losses. Multi-layer (SIS) structures consisting of alternating thin layers of superconductor(S) and insulator(I) deposited on a bulk Nb have been proposed to enhance the peak surface magnetic field and sustain a higher accelerating gradient. In this study, multilayers based NbTiN and AlN deposited on bulk Nb are used to test the proposed enhancement using the DC magnetic Hall probe technique. The tech-nique detects a penetrating magnetic field through the multilayer sample as it is placed under an external mag-netic field produced by a magnetic coil. This work re-ports the characterization and measurements of the mag-netic field of full flux penetration through single layers of NbTiN and bilayers of NbTiN/AlN on bulk Nb. |
