Designing the four rod crab cavity for the high-luminosity LHC upgrade

This thesis presents the design for a novel compact crab cavity for the HL-LHC upgrade at CERN, Geneva. The LHC requires 400MHz RF cavities that can provide up to 10MV transverse gradient across two to three cavities with suitably low surface fields for continual operation. As a result, a cavity des...
