There is considerable interest worldwide in the applications of high-intensity (>5 mA) high-energy (>200 MeV) ion accelerators and the research which could be done with these machines. This presentation will present results of the three year ANL study funded specifically to make possible substantial reductions in the size and cost for future ion linacs in the region beta < 0.5. Applications include basic research, medical isotope production, and accelerator driven systems. High-performance low-beta resonators are key components of all of these machines. Recent 72.75 MHz, β = 0.077, quarter-wave resonator cold test results, designs and their impact on next generation ion accelerators are discussed. Peak fields in excess of 166 mT and 117 MV/m have been achieved and future work to improve upon this will be discussed.
