A short 22-MeV linac under development at BNL will provide high charge, low repetition rate beam for the coherent electron cooling demonstration experiment in RHIC. The linac will include a 112 MHz SRF gun and a 704 MHz five-cell accelerating SRF cavity. The paper describes the two SRF systems, discusses the project status, first test results and schedule.

The 704 MHz superconducting RF gun for the R&D ERL project is under comissioning at BNL. Since last November, the SRF gun has been conditioned and demonstrated an operational accelerating voltage of 2 MV (an accelerating gradient of 23.5 MV/m). Preparations for the cathode insertion are in final stages and we expect the gun to generate the first electron beam this summer. This paper discusses the BNL SRF gun system,and the results of the SRF gun commissioning.
