LINAC
April 20, 2011
Abstract
The European Spallation Source uses a superconducting linac to
provide required protons
to the spallation process. The linac will cost around one third of
the overall cost of the project
and needs to be optimized on several aspects. Changing one
parameter usually demands for a
reoptimization of the whole linac. A new design which reduces the
heat load on the cryogenics
system, while allows deliberate segmentation of the linac is
studied, compared to the cold
and warm linacs, results are reported here.

1 Introduction
The European Spallation Source, ess, planned to built in Lund,
south of Sweden, will require
a high current superconducting proton linac to accelerate protons
to be used for the spallation
process on which high flux of pulsed neutrons will be generated.
The accelerator is a 5.0 MW
linac delivering proton beams of 2.5 GeV to the target in pulses of
2.0 ms long with a repetition
rate of 20.0 Hz. Beam current is 50.0 mA, which at 352.21 MHz is
equivalent to 8.86×108 protons
per bunch. The latest design of the linac can be found at ref. [1]
and the 2003 Design Update
can be found at ref. [2].
It is foreseen not to exclude the possibility of a potential
upgrade of the linac to a higher power
at the fixed energy of 2.5 GeV, by increasing the current.
Increasing the beam current implies
that in case of fixed power couplers the energy gain per cavity
will decrease, to reach the fixed
energy of 2.5 GeV, extra cryo-modules will be needed to be
installed in current High Energy and
Beam Transport line, as illustrated in Fig. 1. This study is an
extension of a former study done
on the optimization of superconducting linac [3], for the sake of
completeness some of the more
important criteria and information will be mentioned here
again.

2 Superconducting LINAC structures
Two types of superconducting structures will accelerate the beam
from 50 MeV, after the normal
conducting dtl, to 2.5 GeV. The first sc accelerating structure is
a 352.21 MHz spoke resonator
followed, after a frequency jump to 704.42 MHz, by two families of
elliptical multicell cavities.
As can be seen in Table 1 the sc linac is responsible for 98% of
the energy gain and covers
around 90% of the Linac length. The purpose of this study is to
find the optimum number of
spokes and cells in each of these three families, as well as the
best geometric beta, number of
cavities per each period and finally the transition energy between
the neighboring structures.
Since all of these parameters are dependent on each other the
optimization has to be performed
in the 8 dimensional space, being composed of 3D of βgs, 3D of
number of cavities per cryo-module
and 2D of transition energy between spokes to low β and from low β
to high β. The number of
spokes in spoke resonators as well as the number of cells in
elliptical cavities is fixed to 2 and 5
respectively by a previous study [3].

These parameters will vary depending on the cryo-module geometry,
use of resistive or super-
conducting quadrupoles and sectorization of the cold linac, an
example of a simple cryomodule
for different used architecture can be found in Fig. 2.
The simplified diagram in Fig. 2 shows the structure, as well as
the distanced for the low β
and high β cryomodules. Spoke cryo modules are having the same
layout, just the quad length is
250 mm rather than 400 mm in ellipticals, the intercavity distance,
from field to field, is 300 mm
rather than 400 mm, and cavity to wall is 300 mm rather than 450
mm. To check the lengths refer
to Table 2-4.
3.1 Choice of Accelerating Gradients
Figure 3: Top: Accelerating gradient along the SC linac, Bottom:
Voltage in the cavity along the SC linac. Green Cross:
discontinuous phase advance variation between Spoke and low β, Blue
Rectangle: Continuous phase advance.
Choosing the right accelerating gradient is of great importance,
since an over specified value
which will not be reached will result to a linac which will be
shorter on paper, but will not be
able to bring the beam to its final energy, on the other hand an
underspecified value may result to
a linac which will be unnecessarily long. The process of finding a
reasonable accelerating gradient
3
is explained in [3], resulting to a gradient proportional to βGeo
of cavity through:
Eacc.max = Epeak.surface
1.95/βg + 1.15 · βg − 1 , (1)
where Epeak.surface is the peak electric surface field on the
cavity surface, being fixed in this study
to 40 MV/m, Fig. 3, based on [4].
3.2 Power
For the ESS beam current, 50 mA, and an accelerating gradient of ≈
20 MV/m, the required power
to accelerate the beam would be ≈ 1 MW, for a cavity which is
almost 1 m long, in case we neglect
the synchronous phase. At such a high power, around 1 MW per
coupler, rf windows have to be
designed carefully due to the high thermo-mechanical stresses which
they have to tolerate. A pair
of such couplers capable of delivering up to 1.2 MW, at 50 Hz and
for a 2 ms pulse have been built
and tested in Saclay, France. [5].
Possibility of feeding a higher power will be helpful for a
potential power upgrade scenario. Power
is limited by the maximum power a coupler can deliver to the
cavity. In this study the power per
cavity is limited to 900 kW to leave a safety margin 4.

Cross: discontinuous phase advance variation between Spoke and low
β, Blue Rectangle: Continuous phase advance.
3.3 Accelerating rf phase
Acceleration, and bunching, of the continuous beam of particles out
of source starts in the rfq at
−90 and then gradually increases to −20 at the end of dtl. Since
the frequency stays the same
in the spokes, the accelerating phase, except for the matching
cavities, starts at −20 and increases
by 0.18 per cavity reaching to almost −14 at the very last spoke
resonators. By not fixing the
maximum synchronous phase to exactly −15 the energy gain along the
low beta region could be
enhanced, Fig. 5. However, the possible shrinkage of acceptance due
to this little modification
needs to be checked and must not be large. Elliptical cavities will
work on twice the frequency, i.e.
704.42 MHz, and if this frequency jump is not handled correctly a
loss of longitudinal acceptance in
4
the transition between these two structures may cause excessive
emittance increase and/or particle
loss in elliptical cavities. To keep the bucket size the same,
accelerating phase as well as the
accelerating gradient are decreased in the first few periods of the
elliptical cavities [6]. Later in the
low β region the synchronous phase stays constant at −15, and in
the high beta region it starts
from −15 and gradually ramps to −14. Not ramping the phase and
keeping it at the constant
value of −15 will reduce the final energy by around 5 MeV.

discontinuous phase advance variation between Spoke and low β, Blue
Rectangle: Continuous phase advance.
3.4 Phase Advance
Another boundary condition applied to the optimization process is
the limit on longitudinal phase
advance per period. The upper limit chosen during this study is 80
per period in all the three
structures, which in case the transverse phase advance in those
regions where the longitudinal
phase advance is at its higher value, has the maximum value of 90
per period still the ratio of
transverse to longitudinal phase advance will be 1.125. Due to
frequency jump if we do not limit

Step, Blue Rectangle: Smooth.
the phase advance variation between spoke resonators and low β
cavities, there will be a step like
discontinuity in average phase advance, phase advance per meter, at
that location, which may
decrease the beam dynamics performance of the machine and act as a
bottle neck, to avoid this
5
issue the maximum phase advance variation per meter is limited to
0.5 per meter, in the study it
is referred to former case by “STEP” and the latter one by
“SMOOTH”, Fig. 6.
4 Optimizing Criteria
Amongst all the choices the total linac length is chosen to be the
criteria for the optimization
process. The reasons behind this choice are:
• Since the maximum power per each cavity is fixed, a shorter
linac, requires the klystrons to
be working on the more similar power, which will save energy,
• The shorter the linac the more efficiently power is transformed
from wall plug to beam
energy, reducing the running cost of linac
• The linac tunnel will cost around 20% of the whole accelerator
project [7], a shorter linac
will require less equipment and therefore the overall cost will
decrease.
However, in cases where a linac is found to be a few centimeters
longer, but required less equip-
ments, the more economic linac is chosen.
5 Studied Structures
5.1 Superconducting Quadrupoles
The reason for choosing cold quadrupoles is that these quadrupoles
can be housed inside the
same cryo-module which is housing the cavities, and therefore a
large number of cold to warm
transitions will be removed, resulting to lower heat load in the
cryogenics system. The lower power
consumption of quadrupoles does not play a significant role in this
selection since this can be
somehow compensated by the required cryogenics power.
However, having a long continuous cryo string requires a longer
shut down period in case a cryo-
module needs to be repaired. The other disadvantage of cold
quadrupoles is their alignment
precision which is limited to 0.5 mm, the effect of such an error
in alignment on the beam quality
has to be studied.
5.2 Hybrid Design
A new type of cryomodule architecture is proposed which allows for
a transition between cryomod-
ules in the sub-100 K region. The advantages of the new hybrid
design are that it will generate
a lower heat load with respect to a fully segmented design - while
still providing easy access
to individual cryomodules for maintenance and repair, allows for
independent alignment of the
quadrupoles, which are mounted at the two extremities of cryomodule
using LHC type alignment
jacks [8]. It has almost all the advantages of a continuous cold
design. The fact that such a design

the extra 500 mm area reserved
for utilities, such as beam diagnostics, vacuum gauges, ... . This
option is called hybrid, since it
intelligently uses two ranges of cryo temperatures. All the figures
in section 3 are plotted for the
c.cq.hcr. linacs.

5.3 Resistive Quadrupoles
A linac using resistive (warm) quadrupoles is designed in parallel
to the superconducting linac.
Such a design is intrinsically segmented to cryo-modules with
doublets of quadrupoles in between
them.
The advantages of this linac are the shorter time to repair/change
a cryo-module, higher precision
in alignment of the quads, and the accessibility of warm
quadrupoles, however the heat load will
increase because of tens of cold to warm transitions. A schematic
drawing of this layout is presented
in Fig. 2.
To decrease the radiation due to activation of materials if
possible it is better to avoid copper
in favor of other conductors, such as Aluminum which has the same
price/mho, for the quadrupole
windings, since copper is the main source of radiation [9].
The spacings defined in Table 2, 3 and 4, though being studied
before being chosen, are the

6 Results
6.1 Optimization
For all the three linacs, with superconducting and resistive
quadrupoles, two sets of optimizations
are performed, by using equation 1 to calculate the field for each
geometric β. The input energy,
after dtl is set to 49.5 MeV, to compensate for a possible lower
energy due to matching. In the
spoke resonators an accelerating field of 8 MV/m is chosen, while
for the elliptical cavities a surface
peak field of 40 MV/m is used. Accelerating gradient in each cavity
for the following designs is
presented in Table 5. Code GenLinWin, [10], from cea France is used
to calculate and find the
optimized linac. The results of this study are shown in Table
5.
6.2 Beam Dynamics
To be able to compare the structures from the beam dynamics
performance point of view, a
set of preliminary beam dynamics simulations, using code TraceWin
[10] was performed. The
Transverse phase advance follows the longitudinal phase advance
with a ratio of transverse to
longitudinal being chosen to be 1.125. A beam of 100, 000 multi
particles is generated using a
Gaussian distribution cut at three sigma at the entrance to the
superconducting linac. The
beam is matched to the structure, and the matching between
structures is done using one pair of
quadrupoles, and a maximum of four cavities on each side. The
results are reported in Table 6 in
the first seven rows, with a mismatch value of zero.
To check the sensitivity of different designs in a fast (not
necessarily precise and exclusive) way,
in initial mismatch is applied to the beam by increasing the Twiss
parameters, i.e.
βmismatch = βmatched × 2.25,
αmismatch = αmatch × 2.25,
in all the three planes to have a mismatch of 50% at injection. The
beam is then tracked along the

runs happen in the second doublet
in the line, where beam is transversally very large after going
through a waist in the middle of first
period.

In the c.cq.hcr cases, to improve the beam dynamics performance a
single quadrupole is added
to the beginning of the linac to make the focusing a doublet
structure, the extra quadrupole is
added in a way to respect the periodicity of next periods. This
fact is indicated in Table 5, by
adding 1 to the number of quadrupoles and 1.4 m to the length of
the first SC section, spoke
resonators.
