Abstract

The Iranian Light Source Facility is a fourth-generation low emittance synchrotron light source under development in Iran. The design and in-house fabrication of RF cavities are key elements of this project. The choice of 100 MHz capacity loaded RF cavities offers many advantages compared to other cavity types due to a simpler geometry, ease of fabrication, and lower costs for manufacturing and RF power system development. Here we present comprehensive simulation studies of these accelerating RF cavities. This includes electromagnetic, mechanical, and thermal calculations. In addition, in the electromagnetic design section, discussions of higher-order modes, their impact on beam instabilities during machine operation and beam loading effects are addressed. Finally, thermomechanical simulation results are presented. The fabrication of a 100 MHz capacity-loaded cavity has started based on the design presented in this article.
