Advanced RF Sources R&D for Economical Future Colliders
Abstract
The high power RF system will be a significant budgetary driver for any future collider. An order-of-magnitude improvement in cost/capability is needed, and as a result, a robust R&D program in next-generation, economical RF sources is essential. In this paper, we discuss the challenges and opportunities that arise from advancing the state of the art in these devices. Specifically, research initiatives in new circuit topologies, advanced manufacturing techniques, and novel alternatives to conventional RF source components are discussed.
