Cavity Conditioning Algorithm
• Automatically controls incident power to structure.
• Short term: +10kW steps every 6 min and -10kW per BD event.
• Long Term: Measures BDR (1MPulse moving avg.) and will stop power increase if BDR too high.
![Page 8: High gradient test results from X-BOX1 Ben Woolley XBOX Team CERN, Switzerland February 2014](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022013004/56649cf05503460f949bed7d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
BD Detection: Breakdown• Transmitted pulse drops as the
arc is established.• Reflected power increases to
the same order as the incident pulse.
• Faraday cup voltages are saturated: 100-1000x increase in charge emitted.
• We can use the difference in time between the transmitted power falling and the reflected power increasing to find the BD cell location.
• The phase of the reflected signal is used to pinpoint cell location.

Breakdown: Steps taken
• We stop the next pulse from occurring and wait 2 seconds to let the vacuum level recover.
• All the signals are logged to file for later analysis.
• Over 20-30 seconds we ramp the power from zero back to the power set-point.

100 MV/m
Full-fledged CLIC accelerating structure TD26R05CC build by CERN is successfully processed in XBOX1 up to 107 MW/m unloaded accelerating gradient at 250 ns pulses . We have started now study of breakdown rate evolution at the fixed (100 MV/m) gradient.

Phase measurementsReflected phase are grouped and separated by 2p/3
About 25% of BDs see a drift in position:
• REF pulse is split in 2 parts that shows 2 different phases
• The overall phase change is always negative BD arc is moving towards the input.

New Developments• Dark current signal has
been split and sampled at 1.25GSPS. Also we’ve added incident RF signal diode. Used to collect data for stress model analysis of the 100 pulses leading up to a BD event. (Collaboration with Uni. Jerusalem)
• We have successfully demonstrated that we can produce a CLIC pulse shape using the pulse compressor and the phase programmer.

Recent 100MV/m run
Large BD triggers period of lower BDR but increases dark current.Also after this period there are less cluster events 45% vs. 25%.

Xbox-1: Future Developments• We will remove the XL5 from XBOX-1 to look at the gun ion pump.
Regardless of the conclusion it will be moved to XBOX-2 for system testing and conditioning at low powers <20MW.
• The new CPI XL5 tube (arrival in 2-3 weeks) will be put into the XBOX-1 test stand.
• The new tube will be tested up to full power and pulse width using the new load tree (pictured, vacuum leak checked and LLRF tested OK, now prepping for bake-out).
• The load tree will be moved to CTF-2 to condition the rest of the WG network.
• Connect klystron to dog-leg WG in order to start dog-leg waveguide commissioning in preparation for the beam loading experiment.
See Alberto Degiovanni’s talk later today for:• Continue to develop phase measurement analysis.• Utilise other methods for BD cell location: dark current signals and
X-rays emitted during BD.• Soon to have installation of dark current energy spectrometer
Should give better indication of the energies involved in accelerating electrons and ions during a BD. As yet unclear if this will run on XBOX-1 or 2.
• Quicker/better method of calibration to be devised (less downtime).
• Continue conditioning of the TD26CC structure? 22

Summary• TD26CC structure is conditioned up to 103MV/m for required
CLIC pulse shape and BDR.• Gun arcs in the klystron have slowed progress.• Work and planning to greatly expand our testing capability is
well underway.
