Abstract

Vibration measurements of the linear accelerator structures in the SLC linac show a 1 micron RMS vertical motion. This motion reduces to 0.2 micron RMS motion when the cooling water to the accelerator structures is turned off. The quadrupoles have 250 nanometer RMS vertical motion with the accelerator structure cooling water on and 60 nanometer motion with it off. These results together with measurements of the correlations as a function of frequency between the motions of various components are presented
