Radio frequency (RF) control is a key technique in cold atom experiments. Here, we present new design based on virtual load, where low-frequency coil with of up to 30\,MHz, functions as both an inductor and power-sharing element capacitive transformer circuit. This enables highly efficient RF circuit tunable matching bandwidth. It integrates broadband narrowband coils into compact configuration, overcoming the distance limitations metallic chambers. The system, tested 10-second evaporative...

We have measured the effects of high (0--4.5 T) magnetic fields on operating conditions 805 MHz accelerating cavities, and discovered that maximum gradient drops as a function axial field. While any cavity is governed by number factors including conditioning, surface topology materials, we argue $\mathbf{J}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\mathbf{B}$ forces within emitters are mechanism for enhanced breakdown in fields. The pattern changes over time show an example bright emitter which...

The proton driver for the muon collider must produce short pulses of protons in order to facilitate cooling and operation with polarized beams.

Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is an emerging molecular technique that relies on the nonlinear magnetization response of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. Open-sided MPI (OS-MPI) has attracted considerable interest for its potential to enhance interventional procedures. However, improving spatial resolution OS-MPI poses a significant challenge, mainly due inefficiencies selection coils in generating, rotating, and shifting high-gradient field-free line (FFL). To address this...
Open-sided magnetic particle imaging (OS-MPI) has garnered significant interest due to its potential for interventional applications. However, the system matrix calibration in OS-MPI using sequential scans is a time-consuming task and susceptible low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) resulting from small sample size. These challenges have hindered practical implementation of matrix-based reconstruction sequentially scanned OS-MPI. To address these issues, we propose novel method, named scan-based...

There is a new magnetic alloy called Finemet which has very constant /spl mu/'/sub p/Qf up to sim/2 kG and stable at high flux density temperature. It may be good candidate for high-gradient RF cavities. However, it rather low quality factor therefore lossy.
