Title: PHASE LAW OF A HIGH INTENSITY SUPERCONDUCTING LINAC

Conference ·
OSTI ID:981769

The importance of a proper phase law is recognized to tune the synchronous phase of each superconducting cavities of a high intensity proton superconducting linac such as the SNS linac. The factors to be optimized are 1) maximizing the longitudinal acceptance 2) better matching throughout the linac and 3) achieving maximum beam energy. The driving force behind this study is how to effectively control the large voltage fluctuation from cavity to cavity, achieving low beam loss and high beam quality.
