摘要

Purpose

To enhance the reliability and availability of superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) linear accelerators (LINACs), this study proposes and validates a novel global compensation-rematch method for fault recovery.

Methods

The proposed method prioritizes the smooth evolution of the longitudinal phase advance per meter as the core physical constraint. By enforcing this constraint and redistributing the lost accelerating voltage among operational cavities, the method aims to simultaneously restore the nominal beam energy and preserve its quality. Its effectiveness is demonstrated through comprehensive beam dynamics studies and beam experiments on a low-energy, high-intensity proton LINAC, including multiparticle simulations using TraceWin software.

Results

Multiparticle simulations indicate that the normalized root-mean-square emittance growth is negligible after compensating for a 50% field reduction in key spoke cavities. Experimental verification under limited hardware conditions successfully restored the beam energy to its nominal value without any observed loss of beam quality.

Conclusion

A physically transparent and robust fault recovery framework is presented, validated in a real machine environment. It offers significant potential for enhancing the reliability and availability of high-power hadron LINACs.
