Motivation
The hadrontherapy community demands a compact, reliable accelerator with the appropriate beam performances for tumour treatment with ions.

Motivation
The hadrontherapy community demands a compact, reliable accelerator with the appropriate beam performances for tumour treatment with ions.
The linac length could be reduced if high accelerating gradients (~ 35 MV/m) were achieved for an acceptable value of breakdowns (BDR ~ 10-6 bpp/m), as breakdows compromise the machine reliability.
CABOTO is a copper standing-wave Side-Coupled Linac operating at 5.7 GHz.

Motivation
The hadrontherapy community demands a compact, reliable accelerator with the appropriate beam performances for tumour treatment with ions.
The linac length could be reduced if high accelerating gradients (~ 35 MV/m) were achieved for an acceptable value of breakdowns (BDR ~ 10-6 bpp/m), as breakdows compromise the machine reliability.
Which are the expected high gradient performances for such a machine?
CABOTO is a copper standing-wave Side-Coupled Linac operating at 5.7 GHz.

The Frascati@KEK structure is a 5.7 GHz travelling-wave (TW) structure made in copper. It has been designed to accelerate relativistic electrons (Es/E0 ~ 2).
The structure was tested with a 0.2 ms-long RF pulse.

The Frascati@KEK structure is a 5.7 GHz travelling-wave (TW) structure made in copper. It has been designed to accelerate relativistic electrons (Es/E0 ~ 2).
The structure was tested with a 0.2 ms-long RF pulse.
Structure characteristics
CABOTO is a standing-wave (SW) structure made in copper. It has been designed to accelerate non-relativistic hadrons. Therefore, accelerating cells present «noses» in order to improve acceleration but then Es/E0 ~ 4—5.
Typical RF pulse for therapy application would be 2 ms-long. « nose »

Conclusionso Maximum achievable average axial field for the TERA C-band structures is around 40
MV/m.(assumptions:– TW and SW are comparable– Modified Poynting vector and associated scaling laws validity– Pulse length scaling laws validity)
o High power tests of the C-band TERA prototypes are useful to:1) Check the validity of the scaling laws.
2) Increase the statistics of RF high power measurements at 5.7 GHz.
