Title: Measurements of the Properties of Garnet Material for Tuning a 2nd Harmonic Cavity for the Fermilab Booster

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1358093

A perpendicularly biased 2nd harmonic cavity is being designed and built for the Fermilab Booster, to help with injection and extraction. Tunable accelerating cavities were previously designed and prototyped at LANL, TRIUMF, and SSCL for use at 45-60 MHz (LANL at 50-84 MHz). The required frequency range for FNAL is 76 - 106 MHz. The garnet material chosen for the tuner is AL-800. To reliably model the cavity, its static permeability and loss tangent must be well known. As this information is not supplied by the vendor or in publications of previous studies, a first order evaluation of these properties was made using material samples. This paper summarizes the results of the corresponding measurements
