3. INTRODUCTION

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) is constructing a new, linear accelerator (linac) to improve its capabilities for high energy particle physics research. The linac will accelerate ionized protons using superconducting RF (SRF) cavities distributed throughout an underground tunnel. The design of the PIP- II linac requires a dedicated RF source for each cavity in the accelerator.

There are over 100 cavities in the current linac design with each cavity tuned to some multiple of 162.5 MHz (162.5 MHz, 325 MHz, and 650 MHz). Figure 3-1 shows an illustration of the full linac and a blown-up image of the different modules that contain the cavities. The superconducting resonant cavities used

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory 7 for this linac are specifically designed with a very high loaded quality factor (QL) around 1e6, which allows the cavities to establish very high electric fields.

Figure 3-1: The arrangement of the different styles of cavities in the PIP-II beamline.

This specification covers the necessary quantity and RF power to drive the cavities in the LB650 cryomodules.

7. REQUIREMENTS

7.1. System Definition

7.1.1. Background

Fermilab is constructing a linear particle accelerator with sufficient energy and intensity to inject into its higher energy, synchrotron accelerators. The beam from these accelerators will be applied to targets which produce exotic particles for study.

One of the key components of any particle accelerator is the accelerating cavity. The cavity stores radio frequency energy that is transferred to the particles as they pass through the cavity. The amount of particle energy gain is a direct function of the voltage generated across the cavity. Since the cavity stores RF energy, it is also important that the particles cross the cavity at the proper RF phase. Otherwise, particles could be mistakenly decelerated instead of accelerated. Figure 7-1 illustrates the changing fields in the cavities and the proper synchronization of positively charged particles.

Figure 7-1: Illustration of charge particles being accelerated by RF fields in a cavity.

To help produce the high accelerating voltages required by the particles, the cavities are designed to resonate at an integer multiple of the particle bunch frequency. In this linear accelerator, the particle bunches are spaced at a frequency of 162.5 MHz. The cavities in the linac are designed to resonate at

162.5 MHz, 325 MHz, and 650 MHz. Higher frequency cavities are used as the beam reaches higher energy in the linac.

The purpose of this technical specification is to define the requirements of the RF power source used to drive the 650 MHz cavities.

7.1.2. System Diagram

A simplified cavity RF system diagram is shown in figure 7-2. The RF power source in this diagram is an RF amplifier that provides linear gain to the output of the Low Level RF (LLRF) system. The LLRF system monitors the forward power from the directional coupler and the cavity antenna to regulate the amplifier drive for stable cavity voltage and relative RF phasing. The LLRF system contains a stable feedback system that responds to the error between the RF vector voltage measured and its internal, RF vector settings. The amplifier is responsible for generating a consistent and predictable gain and phase output relative to the input signal that is as linear. An external circulator is connected to the output of each RF amplifier to protect it from the reverse power from the cavity. After going through the circulator and

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory 10 directional coupler, the RF power enters a power coupler that acts as an internal, cavity antenna that couples RF power into the cavity.

Figure 7-2: PIP-II Linac RF System Block Diagram

7.1.3. High Level Operations Concepts/Use Cases

The primary use case for the specified RF amplifier is to accelerate beam in the PIP-II linac. This section describes the amplifier’s function in this use case in more detail and describes other use cases associated with the amplifier.

7.1.3.1. Beam Acceleration

During beam acceleration, the RF system must maintain a stable voltage across the cavity as beam enters and exits the cavity. The primary function of the LLRF system is to monitor the cavity voltage magnitude and phase and use that information to adjust the drive level and phase to the RF amplifiers.

The LLRF system must maintain the output at a fixed frequency that is synchronized to the beam frequency. This feedback system has relatively high gain to maintain the tight tolerances for cavity voltage and phase stability. Keeping the feedback loop delay as low as reasonably possible is an important specification to maintain stability of the feedback loop.

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory 11

SSA

Cavity

Figure 7-3: Circuit model of SSA driving a resonant cavity without beam Figure 7.3 shows a circuit model of the cavity without beam acceleration. The RF input coupler is set to be overcoupled to the cavity, and the cavity looks like a high impedance at the RF input when the RF drive is at the cavity resonance. The power required to maintain the cavity voltage without beam is about half the rated power of the RF amplifier. Most of the power that drives the cavity in this state is reflected back to the amplifier because of the high impedance mismatch.

Beam Current

SSA

Cavity

Figure 7-4: Circuit model of SSA driving a resonant cavity with beam current Figure 7.4 shows a circuit model of the cavity with beam acceleration. The beam acts as a second current source in the cavity of equal frequency and fixed phase relative to the RF drive. In order to maintain the cavity voltage, the RF drive power must be increased to compensate for the extra energy lost due to beam loading. Figure 7.5 shows a plot simulating the relative RF signal output of the amplifier when a 500μs pulse of beam passes through the cavity. The cavity input coupler is set so that the cavity looks like a matched load to the RF drive when the maximum amount of specified beam current is accelerated.

Synchronization of the beam pulse with the increase in RF drive is important. If the increase in drive power comes too late, the beam current will load the cavity and reduce the accelerating voltage. If the increase in drive power is too early, the accelerating voltage across the cavity will increase and be too high. Also, increase in drive needs to be proportional to the beam current. The LLRF system will square wave modulate the amplifier input drive with the proper level and timing to preempt the beam loading in the cavity. It is important that the amplifier gain and phase response to this increase in drive be predictable and repeatable. The LLRF system can compensate for nonlinearities in amplifier gain and phase if the nonlinearities are repeatable between beam pulses.

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory 12

Figure 7-5: Plot illustrating relative increase in RF signal when beam passes through cavity.

7.1.3.2. Cavity Filling

Before beam can be accelerated through the cavities, the cavity voltage needs to be fixed. The cavities are capable of storing a large amount of RF energy when they are at their specified voltage levels. The process of bringing the cavity up to voltage and adding stored energy is called “filling” the cavity with energy. During the filling process, the mechanical dynamics of the cavity cause the resonant frequency of the cavity to move outside the range where the RF amplifier has sufficient overhead to maintain the voltage. In this process, the LLRF system does not hold the drive at a fixed frequency. Instead, it tracks the resonant frequency of the cavity as the cavity fills. Once the cavity is filled and the cavity resonant frequency has stabilized, the LLRF system will fix the drive frequency for beam acceleration.

During the cavity filling process, the power required to drive the cavity is lower than the nominal power required to maintain gradient at fixed frequency. This is because the RF amplifier doesn’t need to compensate for resonant frequency shift in the cavities due to external vibrations. The resonant frequency of the cavity will only move by a few hundred Hertz, so the RF amplifier should have more than enough bandwidth to track the changing frequency of the LLRF input.

7.1.3.3. Power Coupler Conditioning

To accelerate beam effectively in a linear accelerator, the beam line which includes the cavities must be evacuated. Any heavy ions that remain in the beam line could collide with the beam particles, reduce the intensity of the beam and increase the local radiation levels. Sometimes, small amounts of ion contamination can collect on copper surfaces and spoil the vacuum during operation. One method that is used to clean the surfaces in-situ is called conditioning. The surface is driven to a high temperature and voltage to release the ions when beam is not present in the linac. Once the vacuum activity due to the ion release comes down, the surface has been successfully conditioned.

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory 13

One of the critical copper surfaces that may require conditioning is the RF power coupler that feeds RF into the cavity. To condition the RF power coupler, the cavity is tuned far off resonance, so that little power enters the cavity when the coupler is being powered. To ensure that the release of ions doesn’t overwhelm the vacuum system during conditioning, the coupler is driven with pulsed RF to start the process. This use case is one of the few instances where the RF drive level from the LLRF system will go to zero between pulses.

7.1.3.4. Equipment Protection

The health of RF components in the linac are continuously monitored. When the health of an RF component is compromised, the RF protection system will request that the RF amplifier disable its output drive. Examples of compromised health include loss of adequate cooling flow for the circulators or couplers, voltage breakdown in the cavity or coupler, or high component temperature.

Also, if the RF amplifier detects that its own health is compromised, it can inform the RF protection system that it may need to disable the particle beam because one of its cavities may soon no longer accelerate.

7.1.4. Interface Definition

Figure 8.5 shows a block diagram representing the various systems within the linac that interface to the RF amplifiers. Many of the technical specifications are derived from limitations of the different facilities’ design and the agreed to interface connections to the systems.
