Abstract :
Higher order modes in the accelerating cavities are expected to drive coupled bunch instabilities in the ALS, which will be overcome by a bunch-by-bunch feedback system. Computations of the cavity higher order modes using the URMEL-T and MAFIA codes are presented. Damping of the higher order modes is achieved by filters in the high power feeder waveguide which is aperture coupled to the cavity. Measurements of the modes in an ALS 500 MHz cavity are presented and compared with the computed values for an isolated, un-damped cavity. The resources of the Lambertson Beam Electrodynamics Laboratory of the Center for Beam Physics at LBL were used to perform these studies
