Abstract

A double quarter wave crab cavity has been designed in Brookhaven National Lab for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) luminosity upgrade. A finite element model software is used to simulate the mechanical strength of this crab cavity. The results are presented and a reinforcement design has been proposed to meet the safety requirements. The reinforcement components, as well as the cavity, are fabricated and assembled at Niowave.
