A prototype Superconducting (RF) cryomodule, comprising multiple compact crab cavities is foreseen to realise a local crab crossing scheme for the “Hi-Lumi LHC”, a project launched by CERN to increase the luminosity performance of LHC. A cryomodule with two cavities will be initially installed and tested on the SPS drive accelerator at CERN to evaluate performance with high-intensity proton beams. A series of boundary conditions influence the design of the cryomodule prototype, arising from; the complexity of the cavity design, the requirement for multiple RF couplers, the close proximity to the second LHC beam pipe and the tight space constraints in the SPS and LHC tunnels. As a result, the design of the helium vessel and the cryomodule has become extremely challenging. This paper assesses some of the critical cryogenic and engineering design requirements and describes an optimised cryomodule solution for the tests with SPS.

An experiment is proposed that uses a pair of RF cavities as a source and detector of hidden sector photons (HSP). HSP's are hypothetical low-mass dark matter candidates with coupling to ordinary photons. SRF cavities are favoured in this experiment as they are able to store a high number of photons for a given input power due to the high Q available. When powered, such a cavity will act as a source of HSPs, while an empty cavity will be able to capture any HSP's decaying back into RF photons. Such an experiment (CASCADE) is being developed at the Cockcroft Institute using single cell 1.3 GHz cavities previously utilised for manufacturing and BCP studies. The aims of the CASCADE project are detailed, along with the system specification.

The LHC requires compact SRF crab cavities for the HL-LHC and 3 potential solutions are under consideration. One option is to develop a 4 rod cavity utilising for quarter wave rods to maintain a dipole field. The cavity design has been developed including power and LOM/HOM couplers have been developed, as well as a conceptual design of a complete cryomodule system including ancillaries and this is presented. The cryomodule is designed to allow easy access during testing and uses a novel support system and contains the opposing beamline section to fit inside the LHC envelope.
