HOM SiC loads for CLIC X-band structures: Design and measurements
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) main linac employs a waveguide-damped structure as its baseline design. To ensure beam dynamic stability, the transverse wakefield must be less than 3.4 V/pC/m/mm in 0.5 ns, corresponding with the position of the second bunch. This study focuses on optimizing high-order-mode (HOM) damping loads through new material measurements, achieving enhanced suppression of long-range transverse wakefields. The new damping load is 20% more compact than those in the previous CLIC structure design.
