The essential advantages of the antenna in terms of numerical electromagnetism are that the geometry has a small electrical length at both frequencies, does not use a structure that requires extra computational load such as substrate integrated waveguide, and is symmetrical, thus reducing the mesh requirement by half. The proposed antenna was manufactured with the chemical etching method and the measurement results were presented. In addition, varying operating frequencies are shown with the aid of liquid metal to experimentally demonstrate the independent redesign/reconfigurability feature of the antenna. To further reduce the fabrication cost, the manufacturing process of the proposed antenna with the help of a 3D printer is explained, and the performance parameters are compared. Good agreement between simulations and measurements has been reported.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Electromagnetic Effects of Equatorially Misaligned Rf Cavities(IOP Publishing, 2021) Karatay, Anıl; Yaman, FatihOne of the most challenging problems in modern particle accelerator systems is the manufacture of RF cavities within the desired tolerance limits. In this study experimental and computational investigations to quantify the effects of transversal half-cell misalignments on the fundamental accelerator cavity parameters and beam dynamics are presented. Equivalent circuit components of an equatorially misaligned single-cell aluminum elliptical cavity are obtained from the measured data and are employed to calculate longitudinal impedance and modal wake function. Critical coupling and bead-pull measurements are performed at the TM010-like mode frequency, 2.45 GHz for the quality factor and shunt impedance of the high-beta cavity. We report equivalent circuit analysis for higher-order modes and variations of the equivalent circuit components with respect to considered misalignment errors for the MICE experiment's muon cooling cavity. It is shown that using the equivalent circuit model decreases the computational load significantly for the wake field simulations of resonator cavities. Good agreement between simulations and measurements in terms of accelerating cavity parameters and impedances is illustrated.
