Towards the First High-Q Treatments for the FCC 800 MHz 5-Cell Elliptical Cavities

Development towards the various realizations of the FCC machine requires optimization of sub-GHz elliptical cavities for high-gradient and high-Q operation, both in pulsed and CW mode, for application in the booster and collider portions. Previous development work validated the proposed 800 MHz 5-cell elliptical RF design, showing reasonable performance after EP treatment. However, the stringent high-Q (3.8e+10) and high-gradient (24 MV/m) goals of the FCC machine cavities will require further development, relying on advanced surface processing techniques developed at 1.3 GHz, such as medium-temperature furnace baking. We describe the development and preparation of 1- and 5- cell 800 MHz cavities for the high-Q program. In parallel, we discuss the design progress and strategies for integrating the 800 MHz cavities into cryomodules to be implemented in both the booster and collider rings.
