Vadim Pribylov finished his bachelor and master studies at National Research University “Moscow Power Engineering Institute” in 2015 and 2017 respectively. His master’s degree in field of nuclear power plant automatization and control was awarded with distinction.

Following the study, he worked as research associate at Joint Institute of High Temperatures of Russian Academy of Sciences in the department for power and thermal engineering until 2021. The focus of his research was in the development of measurement system for an experimental micro gas turbine and theoretical modelling of plants for carbon-neutral thermal power plant cycles.

In 2023, Vadim joined Institute for Power Electronics and Control of Drives at TU Darmstadt as a research associate. He is currently involved in the BMWK funded joint project “Antrieb 4.0”, researching topics of efficiency and energy losses of industrial variable frequency drives.

Solid State Cavity

The overall goal of the project “Solid State Driven High Frequency Cavity for Ion-Synchrotrons” is to increase the efficiency of synchrotron ferrite or magnetic-alloy-loaded cavities. Currently, low-efficiency vacuum-tube (tetrode) Class A amplifiers supply synchrotron cavities with alternating voltage. Development of an amplifier based on silicon carbide power semiconductor devices will decrease energy losses as well as increase availability of replacement parts. The latter aspect is moreover important due to the harsh environment of the particle accelerators.

Institute for Power Electronics and Control of Drives takes over the development of the solid-state amplifier, while Group Accelerator Technology of Institute for Accelerator Science and Electromagnetic Fields will design the cavity. Ring RF Department of GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung expressed their support of the project and offered a test cavity of SIS18 ferrite acceleration system for evaluation of the performance of the new solid-state-driven design.

The Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space has funded this project under grant number 05K25RDB.
