RF Breakdown Diagnostics
• Goals:– Location within mm
– Quantify energy deposition
• Comprehensive recording
– Observe emitted light
• Provide feedback to manufacturing & fabrication process
• Optimize conditioning protocol
• Observations:– Multi-breakdown events caused by reflection
– Breakdown grouping in time
– Structure damage is not explained by material removed by arc pits themselves
– Many (most) structures show enhanced concentration of breakdown in WG coupler

SRF –’emitter locating’- Diagnostics– Probably the most important is the resistive-thermal mapping
– 0.2 s response time
– 0.15 mDeg resolution
– ~ 100’s of monitors/cavity
Provide details of breakdown/emitter source locations (~mm resolution)
– for post-mortem analysis / feedback to manufacturing

X-band (NLCTA) acoustic emission
• Clearly audible sound from breakdown – heard from n-1 generation transport components (e.g. flower petal mode converter, bends)
• Small, 1MHz bandwidth industrial or homemade sensors
• 10 MHz bandwidth recorders (3 samples/mm)– Look for start time (TTF) of ‘ballistic phonons’

Input coupler problem:
• Breakdowns concentrated
• Attempt to reduce input WG group velocity appear not to affect breakdown rate
• Forward/reflected RF diagnostics do not localize breakdown beyond indicating which cell
• Fields are a bit higher in the input coupler – but an electrically similar coupler made at KEK shows very different breakdown performance

EPICs
• Operates synchronously– Digitize RF signals at full 60 Hz rate– Low latency expansion and 120 Hz operation
• Compute missing energy & respond accordingly– Ramp power and pulse width for smooth recovery– Log each event – energy and location
• Skeleton legacy hardware system used for backup only
• EPICs is used throughout the world (except CERN/FNAL)
• (not really designed for high repetition rate pulsed machines)

Physics of Breakdown• Grouping of events (only possible during ~stable operation)
– Soft events < 10% missing energy• Even after SLED2 high power pulse is fully absorbed in load!
– Hard events -- missing energy
• Multiple arc breakdowns– 30% of trigger sample during ‘processing’ steady increase of RF power– Initiators of prolonged breakdown sequence (spitfest)– moving arc locations
• Breakdown sequence model:– Start with (contaminant?) at random location– multiple arcs upstream of original - large missing energy– large ‘collateral’ damage upstream of initiator
• caused by large VSWR • many sites
– subsequent events eventually ‘heal’?

Structure Processing Protocol
• Reflections are not a reliable method to capture breakdown
• Use missing energy (inputf – loadf)/inputf & compare with nominal (better term is ‘lost energy’)– Typical trip threshold is 10%
• Response:– Ramp short pulse power first, then pulse width
– May use many minutes following vacuum event (mostly in transport)
– Drop target power during extended group of breakdown events
