FIG. 4.8: Measured response of the 2106 MHz HOM due to vertical (red) and horizontal (blue) displacements through cavity 7. than its partner. It was found that these high Q modes are oriented approximately vertically, thereby making BBU less of threat in the horizontal plane (see Table 4.1). Comparison with Simulation Results The results of the polarization measurements, specifically the orientation of the 2106 MHz mode, was confirmed through computer simulations. Using the code Omega3P, the Advanced Computations Department at SLAC performed simulations of the Jefferson Laboratory 7-cell cavity. Among the information extracted from the simulations was the polarization of the 2106 MHz mode. The results of the simulated electric field contours for the mode are displayed in Fig. 4.9 which shows that the dipole HOM is split into horizontally and vertically polarized modes [74]. Because the vertically polarized mode has a higher QL, it takes longer to decay and interacts more strongly with the second pass beam, which in turn may lead to BBU. 105

While Eq. (4.21) holds for coupled transverse optics, consider for the moment only decoupled optics (M14 = M32 = 0). The first criterion that must be satisfied is an assumption made in deriving the threshold current formula, namely, that the HOM voltage decay is negligible on the scale of the recirculation time. Furthermore, in any real world accelerator there will be more than one dipole HOM present in the linac, even if the linac consists of only a single cavity. So then, the second criterion for applying Eq. (4.21) to individual modes is that the modes 106 are separated in frequency by at least ω/2QL. Modes which are separated less than
