Abstract :
We report recent results of high power tests of dual mode accelerating structure. This test is a part of an experimental and theoretical study of rf breakdown in normal conducting structures at 11.4 GHz. The goal of this study is to determine the accelerating gradient capability of normal-conducting rf powered particle accelerators. This specific experiment studies effect of rf magnetic fields on breakdown probability independently on rf electric fields.
