Electrostatic linacs are limited by the high voltage
750 kV Cockcroft-Walton Linac2 injector at CERN from 1978 to 1992
Constant potential difference (electric field)
Acceleration limited to few MeV (electric field breakdown)
Still used in very first stage of acceleration. Range: 10-100 keV

The first radio frequency linac was designed by Rolf Widerøe in 1928
1 MHz, 25 kV rf source to accelerate potassium ions up to 50 keVOptimum gap distance d = βλ/2 = βc/2f

Solution: enclose the gap between drift tubes in a cavity to store the energy in the form of a magnetic field
The Alvarez drift tube linac (DTL) – 1955 – is the basis of modern linear accelerator technology
Used RF amplifiers developed during WWII

RF linear accelerators are mainly used for:
1. Low energy accelerators for protons and ions– particles are synchronized with the RF field in the region where velocity
increases with energy. When velocity is almost constant with increased energy, synchrotrons are more efficient (multiple crossings)
2. Production of high intensity proton beams– compared with synchrotrons, linacs have higher repetition rate, and are
less affected by resonances
3. High energy electron colliders– no synchrotron radiation
![Page 12: Ion and proton linacs Øystein Midttun – University of Agder and European Spallation Source (ESS) FYS4550/FYS9550, University of Oslo, Autumn 2015 1.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfa71a28abf838c989a4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Synchronism condition between accelerated particleand RF-wave
d
t (travel between two cells) = T (RF period)d: distance between two consecutive cells
d = vt = βc/f = βλ
The ion linac cell length has to increase as β increases, and the linac will be made of a sequence of different accelerating structures matched to the ion velocity
An electron linac (β≈1) will be made of an injector and a series of identical accelerating structures
![Page 14: Ion and proton linacs Øystein Midttun – University of Agder and European Spallation Source (ESS) FYS4550/FYS9550, University of Oslo, Autumn 2015 1.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfa71a28abf838c989a4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Travelling wave cavities are essentially used for acceleration of ultra-relativistic particles, i.e. electrons
Travelling wave structures can not be used for protons or ions with v<c: 1. constant cell length does not allow synchronism 2. structures are long without space for transverse focusing
(from previous lecture: Fr = e(1-β2)Er)
Particle velocity must be close to the phase velocity of the travelling wave (vph)Disc-loaded waveguide for vph=c at a given frequency

π-mode structures (PIMS) is a standing wave linac structurefor protons with β > 0.4
Simple structure with identical cell length (βλ/2) within a module
Since β is large, the phase slippage is small

Every proton linac structure has a characteristic curve of shunt impedance (=acceleration efficiency) as function of energy, which depends on the mode of operation.
The choice of the best accelerating structure for a certain energy range depends on shunt impedance, but also on beam dynamics and construction cost
CERN’s Linac4

Referring to the synchronous particle: an imaginary particle whose velocity is used to determine the synchronicity with the electric field
Distance from bunch to bunch: βλ corresponds to 360° and 1 RF period in time 1/f.352.2 MHz, 50 MeV protons:β=0.314, λ=c/f, βλ=267 mm, T=2.84 ns.
In one RF period, a 50 MeV proton travels over 267 mm during 2.87 ns. On the plot -> φ = 4.5° -> z = -3.3 mm -> t = 3.55e-11 s

RF defocusing
z
The fields vary in time as the particles cross the gap.
The fields acting on the particle depend on the radial particle displacement, which varies across the gap.
The particle velocity increases while the particle crosses the gap, so that the particle does not spend equal times in each half of the gap.
![Page 52: Ion and proton linacs Øystein Midttun – University of Agder and European Spallation Source (ESS) FYS4550/FYS9550, University of Oslo, Autumn 2015 1.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfa71a28abf838c989a4/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)

Transverse focusing equilibrium
Ion linac:Phase advance = External focusing - RF defocusing - space charge - instabilities
Electron linac:Phase advance = External focusing - RF defocusing - space charge - instabilities
The equilibrium between external focusing force and internal defocusing forces defines the frequency of beam oscillations in the transverse plane.
We characterize these oscillations in terms of – phase advance per focusing period– phase advance per unit length

Beam dynamics design needs to minimise emittance growth and halo development to:1. avoid uncontrolled beam loss (activation of machine parts)2. preserve small emittance (high luminosity in the following accelerators)
