Commissioning of X-LAB: a very high-capacity X-band RF test stand facility at the University of Melbourne
/ Volpi, Matteo (Melbourne U.) ; Giansiracusa, P J (Melbourne U.) ; Sheehy, S L (Melbourne U. ; ANSTO, Menai) ; Williams, S D (Melbourne U.) ; Rassool, R P (Melbourne U.) ; Taylor, G (Melbourne U.) ; Pushkarna, P (Melbourne U.) ; Dowd, R T (ANSTO, Menai) ; Zingre, K (ANSTO, Menai) ; Boronat, M (CERN) et al.
The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) beam-based acceleration baseline uses high-gradient travelling wave accelerating structures at a frequency of 12 GHz. In order to prove the performance of these structures at high peak power and short pulse width RF, two klystron-based test facilities will been put in operation this year. [...]

High-Power Test of Two Prototype X-Band Accelerating Structures Based on SwissFEL Fabrication Technology
/ Millar, William L (CERN) ; Grudiev, Alexej (CERN) ; Wuensch, Walter (CERN) ; Lasheras, Nuria Catalan (CERN) ; McMonagle, Gerard (CERN) ; Zennaro, Riccardo (PSI, Villigen) ; Craievich, Paolo (PSI, Villigen) ; Bopp, Markus (PSI, Villigen) ; Lucas, Thomas G (PSI, Villigen) ; Volpi, Matteo (CERN ; Melbourne U.) et al.
This article presents the design, construction, and high-power test of two X -band radio frequency (RF) accelerating structures built as part of a collaboration between CERN and the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) for the compact linear collider (CLIC) study. The structures are a modified “tuning-free” variant of an existing CERN design and were assembled using Swiss free electron laser (SwissFEL) production methods. [...]

The Southern Hemisphere’s First X-Band Radio-Frequency Test Facility at the University of Melbourne
/ Volpi, Matteo (Melbourne U.) ; Boland, Mark J (Saskatchewan U., CLS) ; Catalán Lasheras, Nuria (CERN) ; Dowd, Rohan (ASP, Melbourne) ; González Antón, Sergio (CERN) ; McMonagle, Gerard (CERN) ; Rassool, Roger P (Melbourne U.) ; Sheehy, Suzanne L (Melbourne U.) ; Stapnes, Steinar (CERN) ; Taylor, Geoffrey N (Melbourne U.) et al.
The first Southern Hemisphere X-band Laboratory for Accelerators and Beams (X-LAB) is under construction at the University of Melbourne, and it will operate CERN X-band test stand containing two 12GHz 6MW klystron amplifiers. By power combination through hybrid couplers and the use of pulse compressors, up to 50 MW of peak power can be sent to any of 2 test slots at pulse repetition rates up to 400 Hz. [...]

Oxford (main) ; CERN) ; Pitman, Sam (CERN) ; Sánchez, Victoria (Valencia U., IFIC ; CERN) et al.
Dark current is particularly relevant during operation in high-gradient linear accelerators. Resulting from the capture of field emitted electrons, dark current produces additional radiation that needs to be accounted for in experiments. [...]

High power conditioning of X-band variable power splitter and phase shifter
/ del Pozo Romano, Veronica (CERN) ; Bursali, Hikmet (CERN) ; Catalán Lasheras, Nuria (CERN) ; Grudiev, Alexej (CERN) ; Pitman, Sam (CERN) ; Serpico, Claudio (Sincrotrone Trieste) ; Syratchev, Igor (CERN) ; Volpi, Matteo (Melbourne U. ; CERN)
The three X-band test facilities currently at CERN aim at qualifying CLIC structures prototypes but are also extensively used to qualify X-band components operation at high power. In order to upgrade one of the facilities from a single test line to a double test line facility, a high power variable splitter and variable phase shifter have been designed and manufactured at CERN.
