  The commissioning of the superconducting (sc) continuous wave (cw) LINAC Demonstrator, financed by the Helmholtz Institute Mainz (HIM) mainly, is planned in 2014. The aim is a “full performance test” at GSI-High Charge Injector (HLI) of a 217 MHz sc CH-Cavity, which is designed by the Institute of Applied Physics (IAP) of the University Frankfurt. Inside the cryostat a suspended frame supports the cavity embedded by two solenoids. All of these components are in fabrication. The testing environment is about to be completed. The radiation protection bunker, and the beam transport line straightforward to the GSI-HLI, comprising beam diagnostic components as well as focusing and steering magnets, has been mounted.

In order to improve the gradient of the cavity and the beam quality of the gun, a new design for the SRF photo injector at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf has been developed. Apart from the special design of the cavity itself – as presented at SRF09, Berlin – the next update will include a separation of input and output of the liquid nitrogen supply system. This is supposed to increase the stability of the nitrogen pressure and enable a better monitoring of its temperature. The implementation of a superconducting solenoid inside the cryomodule is another major improvement. The position of this solenoid can be adjusted with a high precision using two independent step motors, which are thermally isolated from the solenoid itself. The poster will present the progress of turning the first design models into reality.

A lot of the future electron accelerator projects such like ERLs, high power FELs and also some of the new collider designs rely on the development of particle sources which provide them with high average beam currents at high repetition rates, while maintaining a low emittance. SRF photo injectors represent a promising concept to give just that, offering the option of a continuous wave operation with high bunch charges. Nevertheless, emittance compensation for these electron guns, with the goal to reach the same level as normal conducting sources, is an ongoing challenge. The poster is going to discuss several approaches for the 3-1/2-cell SRF gun installed at the accelerator facility ELBE at the Helmholtz Center Dresden-Rossendorf including the installation of a superconducting solenoid within the injector’s cryostat and present the currently used method to determine the beam’s phase space.

  While trying to find an optimal way to configure cryomodule for the low energy part of a high-current, high-power superconducting linac, an option of using conductively cooled superconducting focusing lenses was evaluated. As part of this evaluation, several tests were made using existing test cryostat. The cryostat was modified by adding current feed-throughs and two conductively cooled current leads, each equipped with heat sinks at the temperatures of liquid nitrogen and liquid helium. A superconducting magnet was mounted inside the cryostat on an individual heat sink, and thermometers were installed on the leads, heat sinks, and on the magnet’s winding. In this report we provide some details of the heat exchangers’ designs, compare predicted and measured temperature distribution along the leads, and analyze results of the winding temperature measurements.

  Recent findings on Nitrogen treated Niobiums Based on recent findings at Fermilab, Cornell investigated the role of Nitrogen being present during the cavity hydrogen degassing process. We treated several samples at different temperatures being exposed to nitrogen between 10 minutes and 3 hours at pressures around 15 mbar as well as single cell cavities. This contribution will summarize our findings from surface analysis, Tc measurements and cavity Qs, addressing the question, if such a process can form Niobium-Nitride.  
 
WEIOD01 Review of Magnetic Shielding Designs of Low-Beta Cryomodules cavity, cryomodule, shielding, linac 800

  It is well known that superconducting cavities can trap magnetic flux while cooling through transition. The trapped flux adds to the residual rf surface resistance. For this reason magnetic shielding is added to the cryomodules to shield the cavities from the environmental magnetic field. The low beta portion of many superconducting hadron linear accelerators, either in operation or in production, includes cryomodules containing one or more high field superconducting solenoids. The operation of a high field solenoid in close proximity to a cavity adds a level of complexity to the cryomodule design considerations. The paper will summarize the various techniques that can be employed to reduce the risk of magnetic pollution from internal solenoids.

This paper will present most recent design developments at FRIB to optimize low-beta cryomodules for large-scale linac installations. FRIB, which requires the fabrication of 53 cryomodules, has to emphasize ease of assembly and alignment plus low cost. This paper will present experimental results of a novel kinematic rail support system which significantly eases cryomodule assembly. Design choices for mass-production are presented. Results of vibration calculations and measurements on a FRIB prototype cryomodule will be reported.

For a competitive production of new Super Heavy Elements (SHE) in the future a 7.3 AMeV superconducting (sc) continuous wave (cw) LINAC is planned at GSI. Currently, a cw demonstrator is going to be built up. The demonstrator consists of a sc 217 MHz Crossbar-H-mode (CH) cavity and two sc 9.5 T solenoids mounted in a horizontal cryostat. One major goal of the demonstrator project is to show the operation ability of sc CH cavity technology under a realistic accelerator environment. After first rf and cold tests the demonstrator will be tested with beam delivered by the GSI High Charge State Injector (HLI) in 2014.

  To date SRF technology is extending to large scale heavy ion LINACs, where SRF cavities accelerate beams from very low energy to high energy. In this application, superconducting (SC) solenoids are installed inside the cryomodule to provide strong beam focusing with enhanced space efficiency. FRIB will use local magnetic shielding, where magnetic shielding by Cryoperm or A4K is located close to the cavity at 2K. In this scheme rather strong magnetic fringe fields from the SC solenoid expose the shielding material and will magnetize it. An efficient degaussing process is required as cure against such magnetization. Magnetic material characterization of magnetic shielding materials is very important to be able to plan effective degaussing procedures. The paper will also discuss the design of FRIB solenoids optimized for cost, reliability, and robust long-term operation. NbTi wire performance criteria are discussed in addition to solenoid operational margins.
