Cavity shapeBCD: TESLA shape Pros: small wakefield, HOM thoroughly investigated single-cell: 43 MV/m 9-cell: 40 MV/m (Q=10**10) Cavities and modules have operated in TTF. Cons: high Epk/EaccACD1: KEK/DESY low-loss shape　　　　　 Pros: low Hpk/Eacc single-cell: 45-47 MV/m 9-cell: fabricated and tested. Cons: high Epk/Eacc, small aperture ACD2: Cornell Re-entrant shape Pros: low Hpk/Eacc single-cell: 52 MV/m 9-cell: fabrication underway Cons: high Epk/Eacc, HPR problematic

Cavity-shape designs with low Bpeak/Eaccmade the breakthrough.

ACD3: Superstructure pairs of 9-cell cavities. (two pairs of 7-cell cavities studied at DESY)

Pros. Cost savings : ½ of input couplers (8000 couplers) Wake-fields are less.

Cons. How to process/test a long assembly (BCP, EP, etc…)

Cavity shape

Cavity material

BCD: Nb fine grain sheet Pros: Best known material Cons: Expensive rolling, cleaning and annealing steps. R&D: Impurity of Ta, how many melts, EBM conditions etc.

ACD1: Large grain /single crystal (Jlab, DESY, Cornell, FNAL) Pros: Simplification of fabrication and processing => cost savings Potential elimination of EP => Only BCP Cons: Little experience R&D: Acceptable yield strength of material after cut from ingot Cutting techinque: wire EDM is slow

ACD2: Nb/Cu clad Pros: Saving Nb material => Cost savings. No EBW at equator, comparable performance to bulk Nb cavity. 3-cell cavity demonstration by DESY. Cons: Contamination risk at welding of endgroup. => Sputterd Nb on Cu with endgroup flanged to cell-structure. Complex cool down (Thermo-current/frozen-in flux)

Fundamental Material R&DUnderstanding of underlying physics (purity, grain, surface...)1) RF critical magnetic Field Ultimate Eacc is limited by Hpk ~ 185 mT. Theory is still under debate.2) Field emission Eacc > 45 MV/m => Epk > 100 MV/m Control of contamination, clean processing/assemble3) Defects in material Quench below H(RF) < Hpk. Need scanning method for the defects of <10um.4) Q-drop (20 – 25 MV/m) Cryo-loss is large. In-stu baking at ~120 deg. C.(>12 hrs)5) Residual resistance A few n ohms is not on regular basis.

Cavity FabricationBCD: Bulk fine-grained Nb sheet, Machining, deep draw for

ming, Mechanical polishing, pre-cleaning, EBW, inelastic deformation tuning with appropriate intermediate cleaning steps.

Options: 1) fine-grain sheet deep drawing + EBW => spinning deep drawing + EBW => hydro-forming endgroup => Nb film on Cu + flanges 2) large/single grain sheet Wire EDM cut of ingot to form sheet 3)Bulk Nb/Cu clad material deep drawing + EBW => hydro-form Nb/Cu clad pip

e (9-cell + beam-tubes ???)

Cavity FabricationACD1: Hydro-forming of cell-structure (DESY, KEK) Single-cell cavity: 42 MV/m, Q = 10**10 (KEK & DESY) 3-cell cavity : fabricated. Pros: Saving fabrication cost. Nb material reduction by 75%. Adoidance

of machining. Automation. Etc… Cons: Endgroup welding. Contamination of Cu. R&D: Magnetic flux trap by Nb/Cu thrmo-coupling. CARE program in Europe. Bulk Nb seamless 9-cell cavity installation in the cryomodule (200

6)ACD2: Spining (INFN) Single-cell cavity: 40 MV/m (INFN) 9-cell cavity: fabricated. Pros: Saving fabrication costs. Cons: Need removal of fissures by substantial grinding.ACD3: Nb films on Cu for endgroups (KEK) Pros: Successful SC flanging => new type of modularity. Inspection, cl

eaning, assembly separately. Cost savings (Nb and EBW => Cu and brazing)

Cons: Complex shape of endgroup => difficult Nb coating. Additional complexity in SC joint.

Cavity preparation

ACD1: post-purification at 1400 deg C with Ti.

ACD2: Eliminate outside etching

ACD3: Hot water rinsing

ACD4: Tumbling/barrel polishing to reduce amount of EP necessary (KEK)

ACD5: Dry-ice cleaning instead of HPR (DESY)

ACD6: Air baking out instead of in-situ vacuum bake at 120 – 130 deg C.
