Description

The Eupraxia@SPARC_LAB project involves the development of a 1 GeV normal conducting Linac with an S-band injector followed by an X-band booster. To achieve the final energy, the booster consists of 16 traveling wave accelerating structures operating at 11.994 GHz with a minimum working gradient of 60 MV/m. An intensive design activity, prototyping, and testing of these structures is underway at INFN-LNF. This paper comprehensively presents all the work conducted in the design and prototyping, along with preliminary test results obtained from the first RF prototype of the Eupraxia@SPARC_LAB X-band accelerating structure.
