Abstract

Radio-frequency structures for future normal-conducting linear accelerators are limited in accelerating gradient levels by RF breakdown in the structures due to extreme electric field levels. We report of experiments conducted at the CLIC Test Facility CTF3 where the breakdown is sometimes accompanied by a burst of ions that shows a spectrum consistent with hot coulomb explosions.
