DESCRIPTION:Significant progress has been made over the past decade by stu
 dies of normal-conducting linear colliders as NLC/JLC and CLIC\, to rise a
 chievable accelerating gradient from the range of 20-30 MV/m up to 100-120
  MV/m.  In particular in the CLIC project\, high gradients of 100 MV/m are
  needed in the RF accelerating structures\, however undesired vacuum arcs 
 affect negatively to beam transmission and collisions. These gradients\, a
 t very low breakdown rates\, have been successfully achieved in numerous C
 LIC prototype accelerating structures. In this seminar\, three generations
  of X-band high-power test stands at CERN (Xbox) are presented. Data is wi
 dely analysed in order to understand breakdown phenomena and the optimum w
 ay to condition cavities towards lower breakdown rates. \nHigh-Gradient te
 chnologies have also strong applications in medical hadron therapy acceler
 ators\, to significantly reduce the complexity and cost of the gantries an
 d moveable heads\, which are required to irradiate the patient from differ
 ent angles\, by directly mounting the linacs on them. This is the goal of 
 the TULIP (Turning Linac for Protontherapy) project consisting on a single
 -room proton therapy facility. A new HG-RF laboratory is on construction i
 n the Parc Cientific of the University of Valencia\, in the framework of c
 ollaboration between the IFIC and CLIC in order to test this kind of struc
 tures. During the seminar\, the high-power tests of these structures held 
 at CERN will be presented.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/2457/
