Spoke cavities studies leaded by IPN-Orsay, for both XADS and EURISOL projects, are fully integrated within the 5th and 6th European Framework Programs. During 2003, several tests have been performed on the first b035 spoke cavity prototype. They have demonstrated the great potential of this type of cavity in term of RF performances (Eacc max=12.5 MV/m at T=4.2 K) and mechanical behavior (very low sensitivity to errors fabrication, good stiffness…). Following the upgrade of our cryogenic facility, we have tested, this spring, the cavity at 2 K. These new results will be presented in this paper. In parallel, the fabrication of a new spoke cavity (2-gap, 352 MHz, b015) has begun in January. While keeping the same geometry than that of the b035 cavity, we carried out significant changes on the coupler port and stiffening system designs. We report here in particular, RF calculations concerning the new location of the coupler port (in order to minimize losses due to magnetic field) and also, mechanical calculations about the new stiffening ring. Finally, we will present the preliminary thought on modular cryomodule which are based on the ?short? cryomodule concept used with the Quarter Wave Resonators for the SPIRAL-2 project.
