Impact of beam-coupling impedance on the Schottky spectrum of bunched beam

Tatiana Pieloni, Nicolas Frank Mounet, Christophe Emmanuel R. Lannoy

The Schottky monitors of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) can be used for non-invasive beam diagnostics to estimate various bunch characteristics, such as tune, chromaticity, bunch profile or synchrotron frequency distribution. However, collective effects, ...

Homogenous power distribution along gyrotron collector walls

Stefano Alberti, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Damien Fasel, Ugo Siravo, Jérémie Dubray, Miguel Filipe Silva Füglister, Pierre-François Isoz

EC RF power sources will play a major role in the future operation of large scale tokamaks (ITER, DEMO). A 1MW/170GHz gyrotron is the standard RF power unit considered for ITER. Even though the efficiency of such devices has been significantly increased th ...

Toward a brightness upgrade to the SwissFEL: A high gradient traveling-wave rf photogun

Mike Seidel, Sven Reiche, Paolo Craievich, Anastasiya Magazinik

The first generation of S-band injectors for free-electron lasers has illustrated high reliability and performance by driving the latest generation of high brightness machines. However, the ultimate electron beam brightness of these devices is limited by t ...

Emittance growth suppression with a multibunch feedback in high-energy hadron colliders: Numerical optimization of the gain and bandwidth

Xavier Buffat, Sondre Vik Furuseth

A transverse feedback system can effectively mitigate the emittance growth caused by injection oscillations and machine noise in hadron beams. However, as its action on the beam depends on beam position measurements of finite accuracy, it introduces additi ...

The high-power helicon program at DIII-D: gearing up for first experiments

Alessandro Marinoni

Helicon current drive (CD), also called fast wave CD in the lower hybrid range of frequencies, has long been regarded as a promising CD tool for reactor grade plasmas. A newly installed MW-level system at DIII-D will be the first test of this technology in ...

Prototype mitre bends of the ex-vessel waveguide system for the ITER upper launcher: Thermal hydraulic simulations and experiments with off-center mm-wave beams

Timothy Goodman, René Chavan, Matteo Vagnoni, Anastasia Xydou, Humberto Torreblanca Quiroz

On ITER, long pulse gyrotrons are required as a power source for electron cyclotron heating (ECH) and current drive (CD). The microwaves are guided from the gyrotrons, which are placed far from the Tokamak, into the plasma by transmission lines (TLs) and a ...

Linear studies of spurious backward-wave instabilities in a dielectric-loaded smooth-wall gyrotron beam ducts

Stefano Alberti, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Jérémy Genoud

Recently developed self-consistent models for beam-wave interaction simulations of a gyrotron oscillator have been extended to study spurious backward-wave instabilities in smooth-wall circular symmetric beam ducts. Starting from a purely metallic case, th ...
