25. OR25 - Helium Mass Flow Monitor

Dakota Christian (JLAB)

15/09/2023, 09:00

The SBIR funded Helium Mass Flow Monitor System, developed by Jefferson Lab (CEBAF) and Hyperboloid LLC, is designed to provide real-time measurements of cavity health (Q0) within a Superconducting Radio Frequency Cryomodule. The device uses a component made of superconducting material that is cooled by a 2 K super-fluid helium bath. By varying the current of the heater our superconducting...

26. OR26 - Development and Overview of Accelerator Safety Configuration Control (ASCC) at the Advanced Light Source

Sean Nord (ALS/LBNL)

15/09/2023, 09:30

Accelerator Safety Configuration Control (ASCC) is a novel, web-based application developed over the last several years by the Advanced Light Source at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in partnership with Softtek, a leading IT company based in Mexico, to aid operators with controlling and managing accelerator safety processes. ASCC replaces outdated paper-based configuration management...

27. OR27 - Classifying and Mitigating Superconducting Cavity Faults in the SRF Linac of the Chinese ADS Front-End Demo Facility

Feng QIU (IMP)

15/09/2023, 10:00

The Chinese ADS Front-end demo superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) linac, CAFe, successfully conducted a 10 mA, 200 kW continuous wave proton beam commissioning in 2021. However, the governing portion (~70%) of total beam trips was attributed to RF cavity faults. When these faults occur, an acquisition process records 8 RF waveforms using digital low-level radio-frequency (LLRF) systems. In...
