Abstract
Recently multipacting (MP) has been experimentally found in two superconducting cavities to the surprise of experimenters. Computer simulation showed that the MP has occurred in transition regions between a cavity and a beam-pipe, [R.L. Geng, et al., Fabrication and performance of superconducting RF cavities for the Cornell ERL injector, in: Proceedings of the PAC 2007, Albuquerque, NM, 2007; Y. Morozumi. RF structure design and analysis XXXIII, 〈 http://lcdev.kek.jp/ILC-AsiaWG/WG5notes/〉, 18 May 2007]. Our analysis offers an insight into which electromagnetic field configuration is necessary to support MP in such geometries. Namely, a minimum of the electric field along the cavity profile line, associated with the RF potential well, attracts electrons and thus creates conditions favorable for multipactor. Choosing geometries without a minimum of the electric field allows MP-free beam-pipe transitions. Simulation results confirming this conclusion are presented.
