dc.description.abstract |
Six UK institutes are engaged in a collaborative R&D
programme with CERN aimed at demonstrating key
aspects of technology feasibility for the Compact Linear
Collider (CLIC). We give an overview and status of: 1)
Drive-beam components: quadrupole magnets and the
beam phase feed-forward prototype. 2) Beam
instrumentation: stripline and cavity beam position
monitors, an electro-optical longitudinal bunch profile
monitor, and laserwire and diffraction and transition
radiation monitors for transverse beam-size
determination. 3) Beam delivery system and machinedetector
interface design, including beam
feedback/control systems and crab cavity design and
control. 4) RF structure design. In each case we report on
the status of prototype systems and performance tests
with beam at the CTF3, ATF2 and CESRTA test
facilities, including plans for future experiments. |
