PIP Report

F.G. Garcia AEM - PIP Report 11/04/2013

Modulator Upgrade 35kV, Marx-topology modulator to

drive AD/EE complete testing with 3 cells

Full capability (900V - 100 A) AD/EE Working on building 9 cells Marx

Modulator Cells will be mounted on their back with a

stripline making the electrical path between cells

SLAC Design based on ILC Modulator Develop a learning control system

use as a power source for the DTL Linac Bid closed 11/1/2013 Single bidder -> CPI

PRELIM

INARY

Activities Initiate gallery floor plan layout in collaboration with AD/MSD

Drafter Dept.

BoosterRF system New cavities

Efforts continue on developing a model of the existing Booster cavity Full 3D model with most of the details

incorporated

F.G. Garcia AEM - PIP Report 11/04/2013

3D EM simulations Identified weak points of max electric field in air and

vacuum A modified/improved design has been under development

PIP plan is to build 3 more cavities New ferrite cores

Procurement of new ferrite cores underway High-mu ferrite proved to be a complicate process

Working with vendor to get the recipe at acceptable performance

BoosterRF system Cavities Refurbishment

9 of 19 cavities have been refurbished

F.G. Garcia AEM - PIP Report 11/04/2013
