3D-printing of radiofrequency (RF) cavity resonators could provide a cost-effective solution that enables rapid prototyping and design flexibility compared to traditional fabrication of full-metal cavities. In this work, the feasibility of…

We present the design and characterization of a dual-mode radiofrequency (rf) cavity, a novel electromagnetic structure with potential benefits such as compactness, efficiency, cost reduction and multifunctionality. The cavity was designed…

In this work, a combination of cathode retraction and two-slit emittance measurement technique is proposed as an advanced means to individually modify emittance growth components, specifically, rf injector fringe fields, to isolate and…

This paper discusses the trends and trade-offs between transverse sigma x and longitudinal sigma z bunch dimensions, rf injector gradient, bunch charge, and intrinsic electron mean transverse energy (MTE), where all can be chosen to be…
