The short pulse x-ray (SPX) part of the Advanced Photon Source Upgrade calls for the installation of a two-cavity cryomodule in the APS ring to study cavity-beam interaction, including HOM damping and cavity timing and synchronization. Design of this cryomodule is underway at Jefferson Lab in collaboration with the APS Upgrade team at ANL. The cryomodule design faces several challenges including tight spacing to fit in the APS ring, a complex set of cavity waveguides including HOM waveguides and dampers enclosed in the insulating vacuum space, and tight alignment tolerances due to the APS high beam-current (up to 150 mA). Given these constraints, special focus has been put on modifying existing CEBAF-style designs, including a cavity tuner and alignment scheme, to accommodate these challenges. The thermal design has also required extensive work including coupled thermal-mechanical simulations to determine the effects of cool-down on both alignment and waveguides. This work will be presented and discussed in this paper.

The Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility is currently engaged in the 12 GeV Upgrade Project. The goal of the 12 GeV Upgrade is a doubling of the available beam energy of the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) from 6 GeV to 12 GeV. The increase in beam energy will largely be due to the addition of ten C100 cryomodules and the associated RF in the CEBAF linacs. These cryomodules are designed to deliver 100 MeV per cryomodule. Each C100 cryomodule contains a string of eight seven-cell, electro-polished, superconducting RF cavities. While an average performance of 100 MV is needed to achieve the overall 12 GeV beam energy goal, the actual performance goal for the cryomodules is an average energy gain of 108 MV to provide operational headroom. All ten of the C100 cryomodules are installed in the linac tunnels and are on schedule to be commissioned by September 2013. Commissioned performance has ranged from 104 MV to 118 MV. In May, 2012, a test of an early C100 achieved 108 MV with full beam loading. This paper will discuss the performance of the C100 cryomodules along with operational challenges and lessons learned for future designs.
