Problem: B field effect on RF cavity Gradient in MV/m Peak Magnetic Field in T at the Window >2X Reduction @ required field X A. Bross, MC’11 Required E in cooling channel Data were taken in an 805 MHz vacuum pillbox cavity Review 8/22/114All Experimenters Meeting, K. Yonehara
5
One possible solution Dark current is focused by B field Higher breakdown probability due to denser dark current Rolland Johnson and Dan Kaplan pointed out that dense hydrogen would absorb dark currents The model works perfectly in strong B fields (reference P. Hanlet’s talk) Now question is Can the gas filled cavity work with intense beam? Review 8/22/115All Experimenters Meeting, K. Yonehara

Study interaction of intense beam with dense H2 in high gradient RF field Beam signal (7.5 μs) RF power is lost due to plasma loading RF power is recovered when beam is off RF pulse length (80 μs) p + H 2 → p + H 2 + + e - Ionization process 1,800 e - are generated by incident p @ K = 400 MeV Huge RF power lost due to electrons’ power consumption But, it is not a breakdown!! ν= 802 MHz Gas pressure = 950 psi Beam intensity = 2 10 8 /bunch 8/22/118All Experimenters Meeting, K. Yonehara Plasma loading in pure H2 gas Equilibrium condition Electron production rate = Recombination rate

Study electronegative gas effect H2+SF6 (0.01%) gas SF6 removes a residual electron Great improvement! Beam signal (7.5 μs) ν= 802 MHz H2 + SF6 (0.01 % condensation) Gas pressure = 950 psi Beam intensity = 2 10 8 /bunch RF pickup voltage 8/22/119All Experimenters Meeting, K. Yonehara

Preliminary estimation of plasma loading effect in HPRF cavity for cooling channel From RF amplitude reduction rate, RF power consumption by plasma can be estimated Joule @ E = 20 MV/m Hence, energy consumption by one electron is (including with initial beam intensity change) Joule electrons@ t = 200 ns At this gas pressure, Muon collider: n e per one beam pulse = 10 13 μ × 10 3 e = 10 16 electrons → 0.6 Joule Neutrino Factory: n e per one beam pulse = 10 12 μ × 10 3 e = 10 15 electrons → 0.06 Joule ν= 802 MHz Pure H 2 gas Gas pressure = 950 psi Beam intensity = 2 10 8 /bunch 200 MHz RF pillbox cavity stores 8 Joule RF power >> plasma loading effect May need some improvement on 400 MHz and 800 MHz cavities 8/22/1110All Experimenters Meeting, K.
