  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.

  For the EXFEL a specification for the cavitiy preparation procedures (R1)was set up and handed to the industrial companies. Basing on this specification companies hard ware as well as process flows were set up. Beside this specified part of the preparation technique the companies personal needed to be educated and the processes ramped up. To check the quality of the infrastructure, status of education of personal and correct set up of process flows, so called Dummy (DCV) - , Reference (RCV ) and Pre-series (PCV) cavities were assigned. We report on the general strategy applied for the EXFEL technology transfer on cavity preparation and the results obtained on the qualification cavities.

  The super conducting (s.c.) accelerator models of the EXFEL consist of eight s.c. resonators, one s.c. quadrupol magnet and one beam position monitor. These components are connected inside ISO 4 cleanroom at CEA Saclay to a so called cavity string under the guidance of the XFEL WP 09 activities. The eight s.c. cavities are handed from DESY to CEA for string assembly after successful RF test. The beam- position monitor and Quadrupol units (BQU) are assembled and cleaned in the DESY cleanroom at DESY Hamburg to the same standard’s of cleanliness as requested for s.c. Cavities. The completed BQU units are handed over to CEA IRFU / WP 9 in “ready for installation to cavity string“ status. The setup of infrastructure, the qualification of processes and transport as well as the ramp up to a delivery rate of 1 BQU per week will be presented.  
 
MOP049 Progress and Experiences of Series Production of Helium Tanks With DESY as a Subcontractor for RI cavity, controls, factory, data-management 231

  DESY acts as a subcontractor for helium tanks, for one of the cavity manufacturer in charge, for the EXFEL cavity production. Here the full responsibility of production, quality and warranty of these parts is at DESY. Therefore on 400 out of the total of 800 helium tanks, DESY has to set up a logistic of incoming inspection, documentation, storage and distribution. Special effort is made to archive a free of doubts interconnection and integration of the cavity into the helium tank. After more than 300 units produced a review and statistic is provided.

  Serial production of superconducting cavities for European-XFEL was successfully started at Research Instrument (RI) at the end of last year. The production rate (3-4 cavities a week) allows us to summarize the results and present the statistics of industrial cavity fabrication. Many parameters have been traced during different steps of cavity production. The most interesting of them, as cavity length, frequency, field flatness and eccentricity, are presented and discussed.

  Cornell's SRF group have been led development of Vertical Electro-Polishing(VEP) on SRF Nb Cavity. We have done many VEP on singel-/multi-cell cavities. We also have started VEP'ed Nb coupon surface analysis based on surface roughness measurement. In this report, we will describe our status of VEP R&D, the results of VEP'ed cavity vertical testing, and fundamental study on VEP using Nb coupons.

Centrifugal barrel polishing (CBP) for SRF application is becoming more wide spread as the technique for cavity surface preparation. CBP is now being used in some form at SRF laboratories around the world. Before the process can become as mature as wet chemistry like eletro-polishing (EP) and buffered chemical polishing (BCP) there are many questions which remain unanswered. One of these topics includes the uniformity of removal as a function of cavity shape and material type. In this presentation we show CBP removal rates for various media types on 1.3 GHz TESLA and 1.5 GHz CEBAF large grain niobium cavities, 1.3 GHz TESLA fine grain niobium cavity, and 1.3GHz low surface field copper cavity. The data will also include calculated RF frequency shift modeling non-uniform removal as a function of cavity position and comparing them with CBP results.

Systematic investigations of the enhanced field emission (EFE) of HPR-cleaned large grain (LG) and single crystal (SC) Nb samples (Ra < 0.5μm) revealed an exponential increase of the emitter number density N with electric surface field Es and strong activation effects of the remaining particulates. Different types of EFE activation were observed: by high E partially combined with a micro-discharge or by heat treatments (HT) [1]. In cavities, EFE activation might also occur due to enhanced rf losses of particulates. Therefore, we have started a test series with two LG and two SC typically prepared Nb samples (40 μm BCP, 140 μm EP and HPR at DESY). At first all emitters (1 nA) up to Es = 160 MV/m were localized by means of correlated field emission microscopy (FESM). Then systematically varied in-situ HT between 122°C (24 h) and 400°C (2 h) were applied to investigate the activation of emitters due to the change of the natural Nb oxide. For all samples a significant increase of N with stronger HT up to 32 emitters/cm² at 400°C were obtained resulting in some activated emitters already at Es = 40 MV/m. Final SEM images of the activated emitters will also be discussed.
