TESLA superconducting accelerating structures

Tesla Superconducting Accelerating Structures

The application of the superconductivity phenomenon in accelerators originated with pioneer work in the late sixties at the High Energy Physics Laboratory (HEPL) at Stanford University [1]. Starting with the deposition of lead on copper and niobium on copper, by the end of 1968 the HEPL group had developed and tested the first bulk niobium superconducting accelerating cavity [2]. The result was...

The Wakefields and Loss Factors in Superconducting Accelerating Cavities for Tesla Collider

The first stage of TTF superconducting electron linac is a in its final state of assembling. Many of superconducting accelerating cavities attained already the planned for collider accelerating fields of 25 MV/m. However the problem of cost reduction of TESLA accelerating system is still actual. The propositions concerning modifications in accelerating cavities were signalled at several TESLA M...

The Wakefields in Superconducting Accelerating Cavities of New Type for TESLA Collider

The first stage of the TESLA Test Facility (TTF) superconducting electron linac is already in its final state of assembling. The large number of superconducting accelerating cavities underwent the various complicated preparation procedures and many of them reached the specified accelerating gradient of 25 MV/m. Nevertheless, as the RF accelerating system is dominating part of the future machine...

Accelerating Structures

Oscillating fields in tree space, far from all sources (i.e., at distances r very much larger than the wavelength X of the radiation), consist of a sum of all possible traveling electromagnetic waves. Provided the particles to be accelerated are traveling less than the velocity of light, acceleration2 can occur. Once the velocity approaches that of light, only waves traveling in the same direct...
