1 Frequency and time domain analysis of trapped modes in the CERN Proton Synchrotron Serena Persichelli CERN Impedance and collective effects BE-ABP-ICE

2 Abstract The term trapped mode refers to a resonance that can be excited by the presence of a discontinuity inside a cavity or a beam pipe. These modes cannot propagate into the beam pipe but are localized near the discontinuity, producing narrow resonances in the coupling impedance frequency spectrum. Resonances due to trapped modes can be dangerous in accelerators like PSB, PS, SPS, LHC and CLIC project: for this reason, each structure that is going to be installed in the CERN machines must be simulated in order to identify trapped modes. We will show how CERN impedance team approaches this problem, using CST both with time domain and frequency domain simulations. These results are needed to understand performance limitations of the machines like instability thresholds and beam induced heating. In particular, we will show a recent study of the impedance due to trapped modes in a new septum that will be installed in the CERN Proton Synchrotron in 2013, where our results show a good agreement between CST simulations in the two domains.

7 Importing CATIA drawings in CST From the mechanical drawing imported from CATIA to the design used in CST for simulations This dummy septum, located in section 15 of the CERN PS, will absorb particles during extraction, providing a reduction in activation in the extraction area. PS SECTION 15 --Steel --Copper --AL 2 O 3 During extraction the particles will impact on a 40 cm long, 7 cm high and 4.2 mm thick copper blade inside the dummy septum, avoiding a strong activation on the real extraction septum, located in section 16.

8 Importing CATIA drawings in CST Simplify the mechanical drawing imported from CATIA The RF screen can not be processed correctly by ACIS because of the holes: a screen without holes has been considered for simulations. Elliptical beam pipes have to be extended to avoid negative impedance effects RF fingers to allow continuity between the screen and the tank has been considered in simulations What should we expect from such geometry? Degeneration of the intrinsic modes of the pillbox cavity brings trapped modes
