NbTi and Nb3Sn Superconducting Undulator Designs
- Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory (United States)
Superconducting undulator performance is a function of a number of accelerator -specific parameters. Two very important parameters are the allowable vacuum gap and beam heating, e.g. RF and synchrotron radiation. We evaluate theoretical performance for planar superconducting undulator designs cooled with existing cryocooler technology as a function of gap, beam-heating, and cryocooler performance, for two existing low-temperature superconductors, NbTi and Nb3Sn. Optimal superconducting undulator performance depends critically on both magnetics design and operating conditions. Regimes where a cold-bore vacuum chamber cryogenics design is preferable and those where an intermediate-temperature design may yield superior performance are quantified.
