| Abstract |
At the moment TRIUMF operates one superconductive radio-frequency (SRF) accelerator and is building the second one. The superconducting heavy ion linear accelerator of the Isotope Separation and Acceleration (ISAC) facility utilizes medium beta quarter wave cavities cooled down to 4 K. The Advanced Rare IsotopE Laboratory (ARIEL) is a major expansion of the ISAC facility. ARIEL SRF electron linear accelerator (e-linac) operates nine-cell TESLA type cavities at 2 K. Both accelerators have dedicated cryogenic systems including liquid helium plants and distribution systems. In addition to accelerator cryogenic support, ISAC cryoplant provides liquid helium for the SRF testing facility at both 4 K and 2 K temperatures. TRIUMF’s SRF development involves both SRF testing facility and accelerators cryogenic support systems. This paper presents the details of the SRF testing cryogenic systems as well as recent commissioning results of the new e-linac cryogenic system.
