Abstract:Radio Frequency (RF) breakdowns are one of the most prevalent limiting factors in RF cavities for particle accelerators. During a breakdown, field enhancement associated with small deformations on the cavity surface results in electrical arcs. Such arcs lead to beam aborts, reduce machine availability and can cause irreparable damage on the RF cavity surface. In this paper, we propose a machine learning strategy to discover breakdown precursors in CERN's Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) accelerating structures. … Show more
