Timergali Khabiboulline

Timergali Khabiboulline received the M.Sc. degree in radio-electronic devices from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, General and Applied Physics Department in 1985. From 1985 to 2001, he was a Research Scientist with the Institute for Nuclear Research in Moscow, where he worked on the RF investigation of different physical processes in standing wave accelerating structures (RFQ, DAW, and DTL), and RF tuning of the standing wave DAW sections for linear accelerator of Moscow Meson Factory. He improved the techniques of RF measurements and developed a new procedure for RF tuning of the 4-section accelerating structure of the linear accelerator of Moscow Meson Factory. From 1993 to 2001, he was a Guest Scientist with DESY, Hamburg, Germany, within the frame of DESY/INR collaboration. There he developed a new procedure/software for RF tuning of traveling wave accelerating structure of SBLC project, worked on RF tuning of DESY Linac-II traveling wave accelerating structures by using this procedure, automation of the SBLC tuning machine, and software development for Tuning Machine for RF tuning of TESLA project accelerating cavities. He developed cavity straightness measurement system and alignment technique for 9-cell cavity, as well. He joined Fermilab in 2001, where he is currently a Principal Engineer and an RF Group Leader within the SRF Department at the Applied Physics and Superconducting Technology Division. In Fermilab, he worked on the RF optimization of the accelerating structures and couplers for LCLS-II, PIP-II, ILC, HINS, SMTF, Project X, and PXIE. He also developed a new RF tuning procedure for CKM 9-cell and 13-cell superconducting deflecting mode cavities. He worked also on the 3rd harmonic cavity optimization, development, and implementation of the vertical RF tuning stand for 3rd Harmonic and ILC/TESLA cavities, development and implementation of HOM coupler notch frequency tuning of elliptical cavities, and development and implementation of new alignment measurements technique based on bead-pull measurements for RF cavities. He is the author/coauthor of more than 90 publications and technical reports.
