Feasibility of Folded and Double Dipole Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) Cavities for Particle Accelerators

The quadrupole and dipole modes frequencies can be very close in a long four-vane RFQ as structure length increases. This requires extra mode stabilizer design to improve field stability, which may add to system complexity and cost. Therefore, we investigate other four-vane RFQ designs which can have potential advantages and different mode spectrum. These designs are realized by modifying the RFQ cut-back scheme to be a folded-dipole (FD) or a double-dipole (DD) RFQs. In this paper, mode spectrums of these structures are further investigated as function of structure length and dipole mode properties are discussed in detail. Comparison of other properties of the three cut-back methods-FD, DD, and the conventional four cut-backs (4C) - are presented as well. Finally, full 3-D simulations have been carried out for mode analysis of these RFQs with some experimental validation.

Electrodynamical forbiddance of a strong quadrupole interaction in surface enhanced optical processes. Experimental confirmation of the existence in fullerene C{sub 60}

It is demonstrated that in the SERS and SEIRA spectra of the fullerene C{sub 60}, the lines, which are forbidden in usual Raman and IR spectra and allowed in SERS and SEIRA, are absent. In addition the enhancement SERS coefficient in a single molecule detection regime is ~10{sup 8} instead of the value 10{sup 14}–10{sup 15}, characteristic for this phenomenon. These results are explained by the existence of so-called electrodynamical forbiddance of a strong quadrupole light-molecule interaction, which arises because of belonging of C{sup 60} to the icosahedral symmetry group and due to the electrodynamical law divE = 0.

Parameters of Nuclear Quadrupole Interaction and Spatial Distribution of Electronic Defects in YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7} and La{sub 2–x}Sr{sub x}CuO{sub 4} Lattices

The comparison of calculated and experimental parameters of nuclear quadrupole interaction in the sites of crystal lattice of YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7} and La{sub 2–x}Sr{sub x}CuO{sub 4} superconducting copper metal oxides has shown that effective charges of all atoms of superconducting ceramic lattices correspond to standard rates of their oxidation, except the atoms of chain and planar oxygen in YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7} lattice and atoms of planar oxygen in La{sub 2–x}Sr{sub x}CuO{sub 4} lattice, whose decreased charge is interpreted as a result of hole localization in the corresponding sublattices.

Analysis on linac quadrupole misalignment in FACET commissioning 2012

In this note, the analysis on linac quadrupole misalignment is presented for the FACET linac section LI05-09 plus LI11-19. The effectiveness of the beam-based alignment technique is preliminarily confirmed by the measurement. Beam-based alignment technique was adopted at SLAC linac since SLC time. Here the beam-based alignment algorithms are further developed and applied in the FACET commissioning during 2012 run.

MQXFS1 Quadrupole Fabrication Report

This report presents the fabrication and QC data of MQXFS1, the first short model of the low-beta quadrupoles (MQXF) for the LHC High Luminosity Upgrade. It describes the conductor, the coils, and the structure that make the MQXFS1 magnet. Qualification tests and non-conformities are also presented and discussed. The fabrication of MQXFS1 was started before the finalization of conductor and coil design for MQXF magnets. Two strand design were used (RRP 108/127 and RRP 132/169). Cable and coil cross-sections were “first generation”.

A skew quadrupole for the AGS to minimize the polarization losses of the polarized beams

The partial helices installed in the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) 9 [1] eliminate both, the imperfection and the vertical intrinsic spin resonances thus yielding a 70% polarized proton beam with rigidity 79.4 [Tm] with 2x10 11 protons/bunch at the end of the AGS acceleration cycle. The initial beam polarization at the exit of the 200 MeV Linac is measured to be 80%. The 10% loss of the polarization at the end of the AGS acceleration cycle is due to the horizontal spin resonances which are caused by the betatron oscillations of the beam in the presence of the partial helices. To reduce the effect of these horizontal spin resonances on the beam polarization, the “jump Quads method” is applied in the AGS [2] which eliminates, almost all, the horizontal spin resonances and increases the final polarization of the proton beam to the value of 70%. A study [3] shows that these horizontal spin resonances can be totally eliminated by introducing into the AGS ring, skew quadrupoles which linearly couple the beam motions to excite new horizontal spin resonances which minimize the horizontal-spin-resonances caused by the partial-helices.

A LIGA Fabricated Quadrupole Array for Mass Spectroscopy

A linear array of nine quadrupoles was fabricated using the LIGA process. Pole heights ranging from 1 to 3 mm were fabricated using synchrotron X-ray exposures to form free standing polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) molds into which copper, gold or nickel were electroplated.
