Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Compact Proton Accelerator in Uhf Band at Kahvelab(JACoW Publishing, 2022) Esen, S.; Adıgüzel, A.; Koçer, O.; Çağlar, A.; Çelebi, E.; Öz, S.; Özcan, V.E.; Karatay, Anıl; Yaman, Fatih; Yılmaz, Hasan ÖnderProton Test Beam at KAHVELab (Kandilli Detector, Accelerator and Instrumentation Laboratory) project aims to design and produce a radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) operating at 800 MHz in Istanbul, Turkey using the local resources. The beamline consists of a proton source, a low energy beam transport (LEBT) line including the beam diagnostic section and the RFQ cavity itself. This RFQ is 4-vane, 1-meter-long cavity to accelerate the 20 keV beam extracted from plasma ion source to 2 MeV. Its engineering prototype is already produced and subjected to mechanical, low power RF and vacuum tests. In this study, the results of the first test production, especially the bead-pull test setup will be discussed. © 2022 Proceedings - Linear Accelerator Conference, LINAC.

E.; Kaya, U.; Türemen, G.; Ünel, N. G.; Yaman, FatihThe 800 MHz RFQ (radio-frequency quadrupole), developed and built at KAHVElab (Kandilli Detector, Accelerator and Instrumentation Laboratory) at Bogazici University in Istanbul, Turkey, has been designed to provide protons that have an energy of 2 MeV within only 1 m length. The RFQ consists of two modules and the test module of RFQ was constructed. The algorithm developed by CERN, based on the measurements generated by the tuner settings estimated through the response matrix [1, 2, 3], has been optimized for a single module and 16 tuners. The desired field consistent with the simulation was obtained by bead-pull measurements. In this study, we present low-power rf measurements and field tuning of the test module. © 2022 Proceedings - Linear Accelerator Conference, LINAC.

We focus on dielectric measurements and prototyping elliptical accelerator cavities at a low power regime for 2.45 GHz. To illustrate the accuracy of our results for the commonly used solid/liquid materials in engineering and to compare the fundamental accelerator cavity parameters with previous research rectangular and elliptic 3D-printed cavities coated with aluminum-type tape were employed in the experiments. Results reported for the complex-valued permittivities and specific design parameters for the cavity prototype are consistent with the literature. Various approaches to obtain the conductivity value of the tape and the effect of the roughness/thickness of the coating on the reflection parameter are discussed in detail. We confirm the effectiveness of the proposed approach, which reduces costs and provides a high degree of accuracy for investigated applications.Article Citation - WoS: 2Mitigation of Electron Cloud Effects in the FCC-EE Collider(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022) Yaman, F.; Iadarola, G.; Kersevan, R.; Oğur, S.; Ohmi, K.; Zimmermann, F.; Zobov, M.Electron clouds forming inside the beam vacuum chamber due to photoemission and secondary emission may limit the accelerator performance. Specifically, the electron clouds can blow up the vertical emittance of a positron beam, through a head-tail-type single-bunch instability, if the central electron density exceeds a certain threshold value, that can be estimated analytically. Using the codes PyECLOUD and VSim, we carried out detailed simulations of the electron-cloud build up for the main arcs and the damping ring of the FCC-ee collider, in order to identify the effective photoemission rate and secondary emission yield required for achieving and maintaining the design emittance. To this end, we present the simulated electron density at the centre of the beam pipe for various bunch spacings, secondary emission yields, and photoemission parameters, in the damping ring and in the arcs of the collider positron ring. To gain further insight into the underlying dynamics, the obtained spatial and energy distributions of the cloud electrons are illustrated as a function of time. In addition, we compare results obtained for two different secondary emission models (“Furman–Pivi” and “ECLOUD”), thereby indicating the uncertainty inherent in this type of study, without any prototype vacuum chambers yet available. We also point out a few situations where the two secondary-emission models yield similar density values. Finally, based on our simulation results for two different design variants, we conclude that the new parameter baseline of the FCC-ee will facilitate electron-cloud mitigation. © 2022, The Author(s).Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Reconstructions of Effective Parameters for a Metamaterial Antenna Via 3d-Printed Components(Taylor & Francis, 2022) Yılmaz, Hasan Önder; Yaman, FatihThis study presents the reconstruction of effective medium parameters for a double negative metamaterial slab from the knowledge of the measured/simulated S-matrix. The structure initially has been designed to embed into a patch antenna for a radar application. To observe the medium characteristics, we locate the slab in a rectangular waveguide for various orientations. The waveguide-based retrieval method is applied to find parameters regarding the biaxial anisotropic medium. Fundamental mode is used for the excitation. Additive printing technology is employed to manufacture a rectangular waveguide and its adapters for the experiments. The metallization is achieved by coating the printed structures with conductive thin layers. Experimental setups for each orientation are simulated as well. We illustrate good agreements between simulation and measurements under the fabrication tolerances. The feasibility and applicability of the additive printing technology for the investigations of the metamaterial anisotropic/bianisotropic nature is reported.Article Numerical Investigations of Resistive Wall Wake Potentials(Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2020) Yaman, FatihThe aim of this Letter is to examine and identify longitudinal resistive wall wake potential behaviours of medium-beta long bunches and ultra-relativistic short bunches using different beam and pipe properties for particle accelerator applications. The lack of detailed analysis in current literature for the chosen set of parameters ignites this work. Since computations of wake potentials for the considered beam parameters by particle-in-cell codes are extremely difficult the author uses an analytical approach. Numerical integrations are evaluated for large domains with fine discretisations. The author observes that conductivity of beam pipe has a larger impact on medium-beta long bunches, variation of beam velocity effects wakes of short bunches more significantly, beam radii changes may have a contribution to instability for low energy short bunches. Interesting numerical results are presented and their physical explanations are discussed in this Letter.Article Citation - WoS: 34Citation - Scopus: 37Metamaterial antenna designs for a 5.8-GHz Doppler radar(IEEE, 2020) Yılmaz, Hasan Önder; Yaman, FatihThe aim of this paper is to investigate applicability and the effectiveness of the metamaterial-based antennas for a 5.8-GHz Doppler radar. Thus, a double negative index metamaterial structure is designed as a transmitter antenna and a near-zero index medium is integrated with a patch antenna for the receiver. Significant improvements in bandwidth for the transmitter, slight improvements in gain and in directivity for the receiver, and typically size reduction for both antennas are obtained. It is shown that return loss, radiation pattern, and gain measurement results of the newly designed antennas agree well with the simulations for a desired frequency band. The last part of the study is devoted to express the adaptation of the antennas for a low-power radar system whose aim is to reconstruct the velocity of the human, indoor as well as behind the wall, from the shift in the received frequency. The accuracy of the velocity measurements and field test results of the radar with the metamaterial antennas are reported.
