Book Physics and Accelerator Applications of RF Superconductivity

Download or read book Physics and Accelerator Applications of RF Superconductivity written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 2240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A key component of any particle accelerator is the device that imparts energy gain to the charged particle. This is usually an electromagnetic cavity resonating at a microwave frequency, chosen between 100 and 3000 MHz. Serious attempts to utilize superconductors for accelerating cavities were initiated more than 25 years ago with the acceleration of electrons in a lead-plated resonator at Stanford University (1). The first full-scale accelerator, the Stanford SCA, was completed in 1978 at the High Energy Physics Laboratory (HEPL) (2). Over the intervening one and a half decades, superconducting cavities have become increasingly important to particle accelerators for nuclear physics and high energy physics. For continuous operation, as is required for many applications, the power dissipation in the walls of a copper structure is quite substantial, for example, 0.1 megawatts per meter of structure operating at an accelerating field of 1 million volts/meter (MV/m). since losses increase as the square of the accelerating field, copper cavities become severely uneconomical as demand for higher fields grows with the higher energies called for by experimenters to probe ever deeper into the structure of matter. Rf superconductivity has become an important technology for particle accelerators. Practical structures with attractive performance levels have been developed for a variety of applications, installed in the targeted accelerators, and operated over significant lengths of time. Substantial progress has been made in understanding field and Q limitations and in inventing cures to advance performance. The technical and economical potential of rf superconductivity makes it an important candidate for future advanced accelerators for free electron lasers, for nuclear physics, and for high energy physics, at the luminosity as well as at the energy frontiers.

Book Multiphysics Analysis of Frequency Detuning in Superconducting RF Cavities for Proton Particle Accelerators

Download or read book Multiphysics Analysis of Frequency Detuning in Superconducting RF Cavities for Proton Particle Accelerators written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multiphysics analyses for superconducting cavities are essential in the course of cavity design to meet stringent requirements on cavity frequency detuning. Superconducting RF cavities are the core accelerating elements in modern particle accelerators whether it is proton or electron machine, as they offer extremely high quality factors thus reducing the RF losses per cavity. However, the superior quality factor comes with the challenge of controlling the resonance frequency of the cavity within few tens of hertz bandwidth. In this paper, we investigate how the multiphysics analysis plays a major role in proactively minimizing sources of frequency detuning, specifically; microphonics and Lorentz Force Detuning (LFD) in the stage of RF design of the cavity and mechanical design of the niobium shell and the helium vessel.

Book ELECTRON TUNNELING STUDIES OF MATERIALS FOR SUPERCONDUCTING RADIO FREQUENCY APPLICATIONS

Download or read book ELECTRON TUNNELING STUDIES OF MATERIALS FOR SUPERCONDUCTING RADIO FREQUENCY APPLICATIONS written by Eric Lechner and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radio frequency (RF) cavities are the foundational infrastructure which facilitates much of the fundamental research conducted in high energy particle physics. These RF cavities utilize their unique shape to produce resonant electromagnetic fields used to accelerate charged particles. Beside their core role in fundamental physics research, RF cavities have found application in other disciplines including material science, chemistry and biology which take advantage of their unique light sources. Industry has been keen on taking advantage of accelerator technology for a multitude of applications. Particle accelerators like the one found at Jefferson Lab's Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility must produce stable beams of high energy particles which is an incredibly costly endeavor to pursue. With the gargantuan size of these facilities, the cost of high-quality beam production is a matter of great importance. The quest to find highly efficient RF cavities has resulted in the widespread use of superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities which are the most efficient resonators that exploit a superconductor's incredibly low AC surface resistance. While metals like Cu are up to the demanding job of RF cavity particle acceleration, their efficiency at transferring RF power to the particle beam is low when they are compared with SRF Nb cavities. Nb is the standard material for all SRF cavity technology particularly for its reproducibly low surface resistance, comparatively high transition temperature and thermodynamic critical field. Using superconducting Nb is not without its drawbacks. Keeping hundreds of Nb cavities in their superconducting state under extreme RF conditions is quite a daunting task. It requires the normal state not nucleate during operation. This is achieved by producing high-quality cavities with as few defects and impurities as possible while also keeping the cavities at low temperature, usually 2K. Again, due to the sheer scale of the facilities, hundred million-dollar cryogenic plants are required to handle the heat loads during SRF cavity operation. This means even small increases in maximum accelerating gradients or decrease in cavity surface resistance results in a sizably reduced operation cost. Considerable effort has been put forth to increase the efficiency of Nb cavities toward and even beyond the theoretical maximum accelerating gradients and quality factor for a clean superconductor. Recently, a new method to produce high quality factor cavities has emerged that involves nitrogen doping the cavity. The mechanism by which N doping causes the improvement is still not well understood, but the experimental research described in this dissertation shines some light into the mechanisms behind such a drastic improvement. These insights are universal for all superconductors and may prove useful for SRF cavities beyond Nb. With Nb approaching its fundamental limits, new materials are being proposed to increase the performance of future SRF cavities which MgB2 finds itself among. MgB2 is a two-band superconductor that possesses many properties that are very attractive for the next generation of SRF cavities. One of the most important properties is MgB2's comparatively large critical temperature which in part predicts it will have a lower surface resistance than Nb at higher operating temperatures. Such behavior of MgB2 may unlock the possibility of using cryocoolers instead of costly liquid helium plants for large scale industrial use. This dissertation starts with an introduction to superconductivity, its theory, and application to SRF cavities as well as the open questions that can be addressed in Nb and the next generation of SRF materials. A description of the experimental techniques of scanning tunneling microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy is presented. Our experimental investigation into Nb SRF cavity cutouts starts with a discussion of the material's limitations for SRF applications with an emphasis on the proximity effect which arises at the surface of this material due to its myriad of naturally forming oxides. The results of our scanning tunneling microscopy measurements for typically prepared Nb and nitrogen doped Nb follows and comparisons are made which show that the surface oxides are fundamentally different between these samples likely resulting in the profound enhancement of the cavity's quality factor. Experimental investigation into the native oxide of hot spot nitrogen doped Nb shows a degraded oxide and superconducting properties as compared with the cold spot. The dissertation continues with a brief introduction to MgB2, followed by our scanning tunneling and electron tunneling insights into MgB2. The dissertation is concluded with a summary of our investigations and broader impact of our research on the SRF community.
