rf system for the PEP storage ring

Conference · · IEEE Trans. Nucl. Sci.; (United States)
OSTI ID:7285506
The main parameters of the rf system for the PEP storage ring are given. A total of 6 MW will be provided by twelve klystrons, each capable of delivering 500 kW of continuous rf power. Each klystron feeds two accelerating cavity sections, each 2.1 meters in length. The general layout is shown. The klystrons are housed in shelters above ground. The wave guides run through vertical penetrations to connect the klystrons to the accelerating cavities in the tunnel. The shelters are placed at three symmetrical regions around the ring. At each of regions 4, 8, and 12 there will be four klystrons and their eight cavities with the eight cavities all being grouped together in the long straight section on one side of an interaction region. The klystron power supplies are on pads outside the shelters. They are unregulated but their voltage may be slowly varied over a 40 percent range by means of variable voltage transformers in the 12 kV input line to each power supply. The output of each power supply passes into the shelter to a high voltage cabinet which contains filter capacitors, crowbars, interlock circuits, and control and metering circuits.
