Design studies of a continuous-wave normal conducting buncher for European X-FEL

A three-cell 1.3 GHz, Normal Conducting (NC) buncher is designed for a possible future upgrade of the European XFEL to operate in a continuous-wave (CW) / long pulse (LP) mode. The RF geometry of the buncher is optimized for high shunt impedance, large mode separation as well as multipacting free in the operation range. The bunchersupport cavity voltage of 400 kV with an RF power dissipation of 14 kW. A tapered waveguide-based RF power coupler is designed to feed the RF power to the buncher. The RF power coupler port is optimized for field asymmetry compensation. The thermal load due to RF power dissipation is analyzed using Multiphysics simulations in CST and a simplified cooling scheme is designed.
