Funding: This work is supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. DOE. 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. |
