| Abstract |
In order to meet the challenges of the FAIR project at GSI requiring highest beam intensities an upgrade of the existing Universal Linear Accelerator (UNILAC) is planned. The 10⁸ MHz cavities will be replaced by new rf-structures of the same frequency. Simulations are done to improve the rf-properties. The geometry of the drift tubes is to be changed to a smoother curvature to reach a homogeneous surface field distribution and higher shunt impedances. To check the necessity of cooling channels, simulations on the temperature distribution at the drift tubes and stems are conducted. A test bench for low power rf-measurements with a 10 gap aluminum model (scale 1:3) is under construction. The modular mechanical design of the model will allow probing experimentally a wide range of drift tube and stem geometries. With the bead pull method the electrical field distribution will be measured as well as the field stability with respect to parasitic modes. Additionally, appropriate locations along the cavity to place fixed and dynamic rf-frequency tuners will be determined.
