Abstract
The higher-order modes (HOMs) in the main and the 3:rd harmonic cavities are driving longitudinal coupled-bunch mode instabilities (CBMIs) in the MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring. This far, negative feedback has been applied in the longitudinal plane by a stripline kicker at lower ring currents. However, the maximum longitudinal feedback voltage provided by the stripline is rather weak, and a waveguide overload cavity was therefore designed in order to suppress CBMIs at higher ring currents as well. Due to the long bunch length in the MAX IV storage rings, a relatively low center frequency of 625 MHz is selected. The new cavity kicker has been manufactured, and will be installed in the 3 GeV ring during the summer shut-down of 2017. In this paper, the RF and mechanical design of the cavity is presented. Simulation results are also compared with measurements of the manufactured cavity.
