Abstract
Multipacting in accelerating structures is a complex phenomenon with which there is much to be understood. While multipacting research efforts have primarily been focused on superconducting radio frequency (SRF) systems, normal conducting accelerating structures that have a higher thermal capacity and a greater vacuum pressure tolerance could benefit from additional investigation. This research details multipacting simulation methods and the results of 3-D electromagnetic simulations of RF vacuum windows used on normal conducting linac (NCL) cavities. Possible techniques for reducing and eliminating multipacting activities in these structures are discussed.
