Design and calculations for HWR Strongback

Abstract

The PIP-II Superconductive Linac is a linear accelerator that provides the first stage of beam acceleration. The velocity increase is achieved through a sequence of different cryomodules, where all the cavities are aligned to form a continuous string. The cryomodule team is currently developing a spare for the HWR cryomodule. This spare will not be an exact replica of the existing one, but rather will be based on the SSR f650 cryomodule design created for PIP-II . Each cavity , magnet , and coupler form a unit, with a total of eight units per string. These components, together with additional equipment (such as piping , the thermal shield , and beamline interconnections ), are supported by the Strongback . The aim of this project is to develop a brand-new Strongback design for HWR cavities, and to perform the related analyses and calculations in order to meet the required specifications.
