Superconducting linacs are capable of producing intense, stable, high-quality electron beams that have found widespread applications in science and industry. The 9-cell 1.3-GHz superconducting standing-wave accelerating RF cavity originally developed for $e^+/e^-$ linear-collider applications [B. Aunes, {em et al.} Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams {bf 3}, 092001 (2000)] has been broadly employed in various superconducting-linac designs. In this paper we discuss the transfer matrix of such a cavity and present its measurement performed at the Fermilab Accelerator Science and Technology (FAST) facility. The experimental results are found to be in agreement with analytical calculations and numerical simulations.

Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) cavities performance preservation is crucial, from vertical test to accelerator operation. Field Emission (FE) is still one of the performance limiting factors to overcome and plasma cleaning has been proven succ essful by the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), in cleaning field emitters and increasing the work function of Nb. A collaboration has been established between Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL), SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) with the purpose of applying plasma processing to the Linac Coherent Light Source-II (LCLS-II) cavities, in order to minimize and overcome field emission without affecting the high Q of nitrogen-doped cavities. The cleaning for LCLS-II will follow the same plasma composition adopted at SNS, which allows in-situ processing of cavities installed in cryomodules from hydrocarbon contaminants. A novel method for plasma ignition has been developed at FNAL: a plasma glow discharge is ignited using high order modes to overcome limitations imposed by the fundamental power coupler, allowing in-situ cleaning for cavities in cryomodule. The plasma can be easily ignited and tuned in each of the cavity cells using low RF power. A method for plasma detection has been developed as well, which allows the detection of the plasma location in the cavity without the need of cameras at both cavity ends. The presented method can be applied to other multi-cell cavity designs, even for accelerators where the coupling for the fundamental modes at room temperature is very weak.
The CW RF test of 1.3 GHz 9-cell cavity in liquid helium bath at 2 K is a very important key point in the cavity procurement. Some problems can be found through the test, according which to optimized and improve the process of cavity. Recently, Mediu m temperature (mid-T) furnace bake of 1.3 GHz 9-cell cavities have been carried out at IHEP. Through the proceed of mid-T bake, the quality factor of cavity has been greatly improved. While the excitation of the parasitic modes in the high Q cavities CW cold test has been encountered, which implies an error source for the cavity gradient and quality factor determination. In order to ensure the testing accuracy of superconducting cavity, we have improved the testing system. Finally, the parasitic mode is completely suppressed and the CW RF cold test of high Q cavity is guaranteed.
In a partnership with SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) and Jefferson Lab, Fermilab will assemble and test 17 of the 35 total 1.3 GHz cryomodules for the Linac Coherent Light Source II (LCLS-II) Project. These include a prototype built and delivered by each Lab. Another two 3.9 GHz cryomodules will be built, tested and transported by Fermilab to SLAC. Each assembly will be transported over-the-road from Fermilab or Jefferson Lab using specific routes to SLAC. The transport system consists of a base frame, isolation fixture and upper protective truss. The strongback cryomodule lifting fixture is described along with other supporting equipment used for both over-the-road transport and local (on-site) transport at Fermilab. Initially, analysis of fragile components and stability studies will be performed in order to assess the risk associated with over-the-road transport of a fully assembled cryomodule.
Q0 determinations based on RF power measurements are subject to at least three potentially large systematic effects that have not been previously appreciated. Instrumental factors that can systematically bias RF based measurements of Q0 are quantifie d and steps that can be taken to improve the determination of Q0 are discussed.
The question of suitability of transfer matrix description of electrons traversing grating-type dielectric laser acceleration (DLA) structures is addressed. It is shown that although matrix considerations lead to interesting insights, the basic trans fer properties of DLA cells cannot be described by a matrix. A more general notion of a transfer function is shown to be a simple and useful tool for formulating problems of particle dynamics in DLA. As an example, a focusing structure is proposed which works simultaneously for all electron phases.
