Test Results of a High-Gradient 2.856-GHz Negative Harmonic Accelerating Waveguide
Abstract
We report the high-gradient tests results of a novel traveling wave accelerating structure for β=0.3 based on a novel approach of operating at the first negative spatial harmonic. Accelerating gradients of 50 MV/m and peak electric fields of 160 MV/m were achieved in a single structure consisting of 15 coupled cells during tests at the advanced photon source. This work was performed by RadiaBeam, in collaboration with the Argonne National Laboratory, as a part of a Research and Development Program for the development of an ultrahigh-gradient linear accelerator, the Advanced Compact Carbon Ion Linac, for hadron therapy.
