| Abstract |
The IFMIF accelerator aims to provide an accelerator-based D-Li neutron source to produce high intensity high energy neutron flux to test samples as possible candidate materials to a full lifetime of fusion energy reactors. The first phase of the project aims at validating the technical options for the construction of an accelerator prototype, called LIPAc (Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator). A cryomodule hosting 8 Half Wave Resonators (HWR) at 175 MHz will provide the acceleration from 5 to 9 MeV. We report on the progress of the HWR manufacturing. A pre-series cavity will be used to assess and optimize the tuning procedure of the HWR, as well as the processing steps and related tooling. A new horizontal test cryostat (SATHORI) is also being set up at Saclay in the existing SRF test area. The SATHORI is dedicated to the IFMIF HWR performance check, fully equipped with its power coupler and cold tuning system. A 30kW-RF power will be available for these tests.
