Multipacting currents can absorb RF energy and produce breakdown in the prebuncher cavity of CAMD linac*. This phenomenon starts when the magnetic field to focus the electron beam is applied. The multipacting has been studied in different magnetic field and RF electric field, and can be eliminated by RF processing. In the paper, the theoretical and experimental results of multipacting study will be presented; moreover, the operability of the system will be analyzed.
