LCLS-II and HE Cryomodule Microphonics at CMTF in Fermilab*

C. Contreras-Martinez, E. Harms, C. Cravatta +7

Microphonics causes the cavity to detune. This study discusses the microphonics of sixteen 1.3 GHz cryomodules, 14 for LCLS-II and 2 for LCLS-II HE tested at CMTF. The peak detunin…

Compensating for Amplifier Non-Linearity in a SEL Controller

S. Raman, P. Varghese, L. Reyes +4

The Self-Excited Loop (SEL) architecture, used in some continuous-wave (CW) superconducting linacs, relies on a positive feedback mechanism that requires carefully defined operatin…

Drift Observations and Mitigation in LCLS-II RF

L. Doolittle, S. D. Murthy, A. Benwell +6

The LCLS-II RF system physically spans ~700m and has strict requirements -- on the order of 20 fs -- on the phase stability of the accelerating RF fields in its SRF linac. While ea…

LLRF System Analysis for the Fermilab PIP-II Superconducting LINAC

P. Varghese, S. Raman, M. Guran +4

PIP-II is a superconducting linac that is in the initial acceleration chain for the Fermilab accelerator complex. The RF system consists of a warm front-end with an RFQ and buncher…
