KAHVE Laboratory RF circulator and transmission line project

Turkish Physical Society 33rd International Physics Congress, TPS 2017; Bodrum Municipality - Herodot Culture Center; Bodrum; Turkey; 6 September 2017 through 10 September 2017An 800 MHz RF circulator and transmission line project has recently started at the newly commissioned Kandilli Detector, Accelerator and Instrumentation (KAHVE) Laboratory at the Boǧaziçi University. The aims are to design, build and construct an RF circulator and transmission line in Turkey for high power and high frequency applications. The project consists of 8 transmission line elements: 800 MHz RF generator with 60 kW power (klystron), klystron to waveguide converter, waveguides, E and H bends, 3-port circulator and waveguide to coaxial converter to transmit RF power to a pillbox RF cavity. Design studies and details of the ongoing project will be presented.Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK 116E221); Bogazici BAP grant 16B03S1
