MOPA50 | Integrated Photonics Structure Cathodes for Longitudinally Shaped Bunch Trains | 160 |
|
||
Funding: This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics under Award Number DOE DE-SC0021681 Compact, high-gradient structure wakefield accelerators can operate at improved efficiency using shaped electron beams, such as a high transformer ratio beam shape, to drive the wakes. These shapes have generally come from a photocathode gun followed by a transverse mask to imprint a desired shape on the transverse distribution, and then an emittance exchanger (EEX) to convert that transverse shape into a longitudinal distribution. This process discards some large fraction of the beam, limiting wall-plug efficiency as well as leaving a solid object in the path of the beam. In this paper, we present a proposed method of using integrated photonics structures to control the emission pattern on the cathode surface. This transverse pattern is then converted into a longitudinal pattern at the end of an EEX. This removes the need for the mask, preserving the total charge produced at the cathode surface. We present simulations of an experimental set-up to demonstrate this concept at the Argonne Wakefield Accelerator. |

MOPA55 | Facilitating Machine Learning Collaborations Between Labs, Universities, and Industry | 164 |
|
||
It is clear from numerous recent community reports, papers, and proposals that machine learning is of tremendous interest for particle accelerator applications. The quickly evolving landscape continues to grow in both the breadth and depth of applications including physics modeling, anomaly detection, controls, diagnostics, and analysis. Consequently, laboratories, universities, and companies across the globe have established dedicated machine learning (ML) and data-science efforts aiming to make use of these new state-of-the-art tools. The current funding environment in the U.S. is structured in a way that supports specific application spaces rather than larger collaboration on community software. Here, we discuss the existing collaboration bottlenecks and how a shift in the funding environment, and how we develop collaborative tools, can help fuel the next wave of ML advancements for particle accelerators. | ||

WEPA43 | Self-Contained Linac Irradiator for the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) | 728 |
|
||
Funding: This work was financed by the US department of energy SBIR grant no. DE- SC0020010. A 3-MeV X-band linac has been developed employing a cost-effective split structure design in order to replace radioactive isotope irradiators currently used for the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) and other applications. The penetration of a Co-60 irradiator can be matched with Bremsstrahlung produced by a 3-MeV electron beam. The use of electron accelerators eliminates security risks and hazards inherent with radioactive sources. We present the current state of this X-band split structure linac and the rest of the irradiator system. |
