Electronic Systems for Proposed Anti-Proton Source Accumulator Core Betatron Systems

New waveguide pickups and kickers have been proposed for the accumulator core betatron systems. With new waveguide components, the electronics of the system have to be redesigned. The waveguide components have new frequency bands and power concerns that have to be addressed. This paper discusses the calculations used to design the new electronic system, and it also discusses the practical concerns of the electronic hardware.

LCSL-II Cryomodule Testing at Fermilab

Cold powered testing of all LCLS-II production cryomodules at Fermilab is complete as of February 2021. A total of twenty-five tests on both 1.3 GHz and 3.9 GHz cryomodules were conducted over a nearly five year time span beginning in the summer of 2016. During the course of this campaign cutting-edge results for cavity Q₀ and gradient in continuous wave operation were achieved. A summary of all test results will be presented, with a comparison to established acceptance criteria, as well as overall test stand statistics and lessons learned.
