Abstract :
The HOM absorber for the normal conducting RF cavity of the KEK B-factory (KEKB) was designed. Sixteen bullet-shape sintered SiC (silicon carbide) ceramics are used for HOM absorption. The HOM power to be handled will be about 10 kW per cavity, corresponding to about 1 kW per absorber. A prototype of SiC absorber was made to verify the performance as a HOM absorber in vacuum. The high power test was carried out successfully using a pulsed klystron (f=1296 MHz). The design of the HOM absorber and the results of the high power test are discussed
