Comments on Crab Cavity HOM Power

Abstract

Due to large beam current in the LHC and the luminosity upgrade (HL-LHC) which will further double the current, higher order mode (HOM) power of the superconducting crab cavities can easily reach a few kilowatts in the worst case scenario of resonant excitation. This report aims at estimating the HOM power to be extracted for a generalized HOM of crab cavity with realistic filling schemes in the LHC
