Tuning and Field Stabilization of the CERN Linac4 Drift Tube Linac

The Drift Tube Linac (DTL) for the new linear accelerator Linac4 at CERN will accelerate H–beams of up to 40 mA average pulse current from 3 to 50 MeV. The structure consists of three cavities. The first cavity (Tank1) is a 3.9 m long tank containing 38 drift tubes, 10 fixed tuners, 2 movable tuners...

description The Drift Tube Linac (DTL) for the new linear accelerator Linac4 at CERN will accelerate H–beams of up to 40 mA average pulse current from 3 to 50 MeV. The structure consists of three cavities. The first cavity (Tank1) is a 3.9 m long tank containing 38 drift tubes, 10 fixed tuners, 2 movable tuners and 12 post-couplers, operating at a frequency of 352.2 MHz and an average accelerating field of 3.1 MV/m. This paper reports on the results and procedures used for the low–power tuning, stabilization and power coupler tuning carried out on the first Linac4 DTL tank. The upgrade of the bead pull measurement system and twists to the well-known tilt sensitivity technique are discussed.
