Tests at 2K of the beta 0.35 spoke cryomodule prototype with the MTCA.4-based Low Level RF system prototype for the MYRRHA R&D

Within the framework of the first phase of MYRRHA (Multi-purpose hYbrid Research Reactor for High-tech Applications) project, called MINERVA, IJCLab was in charge of a fully equipped Spoke cryomodule prototype development, tested at 2K. It integrates two superconducting single spoke cavities, the RF power couplers and the Cold Tuning Systems associated. On the control side, a MTCA.4-based Low Level Radio Frequency (LLRF) system prototype and the Software/EPICS developments has been realized by IJCLab and the SCK CEN in collaboration with the company IOxOS Technologies. The final version of the global system and the results of the tests at 2K will show with some perspectives.Comment: Poster pr\'esent\'e au LLRF Workshop 2023 (LLRF2023, arXiv : 2310.03199

A mTCA-based low level RF system prototype for MYRRHA 100 MeV project

International audienceThe first phase of the MYRRHA (Multi-purpose hYbrid Research Reactor for High-tech Applications) project, MINERVA, was launched in September 2018. Through collaboration with the SCK-CEN, IN2P3 laboratories take in charge the developments of several parts of the accelerator, including a fully equipped Spoke cryomodule prototype and a cold valves box. This cryomodule will integrate two superconducting single spoke cavities operating at 2K, the RF power couplers and the cold tuning systems associated. For control and regulation purpose, a mTCA LLRF system prototype is being implemented and will be presented here alongside with the hardware, VHDL and EPICS developments that aim to fulfil MYRRHA's ambitious requirements

Low Level Radio-Frequency system used for testing the RFQ prototype of MYRRHA

International audienceWithin the framework of the European, project MYRTE (MYRRHA Research and Transmutation Endeavour) of the H2020 program, a 4-Rods RFQ (Radio Frequency Quadrupole) has been designed at 176.1 MHz RFQ for accelerating up to 4 mA protons in CW (Continuous Wave) operation from 30 keV up to 1.5 MeV. A LLRF prototype has been developed to regulate the amplitude and the phase of the accelerator field into the RFQ and the frequency of the RFQ controlling the motor of the frequency tuner. The facility at Louvain-La-Neuve will be presented with a focus on the LLRF system used and some preliminary results
