| | A superconducting cavity has been designed and prototyped
for acceleration of particles travelling at 81% the
speed of light (beta = 0.81). The application of interest is an
8 GeV proton linac proposed as an upgrade to the Fermilab
accelerator complex, although the cavity would also be
suitable for other ion accelerators. The cell shape is similar
to that of the 805 MHz high-beta cavity developed for
the Spallation Neutron Source Linac, but the resonant frequency
is 1.3 GHz and the beam tube diameter matches that
of the 1.3 GHz cavity for the TeSLA Test Facility. Four
single-cell prototypes have been fabricated and tested before
and after post-purification. Two of the cavities were
formed from standard high purity fine grain niobium sheet;
the other two were fabricated from large grain niobium, following
up on the work at Jefferson Lab to investigate the
potential of large grain material for cost savings and/or improved
RF performance. Two 7-cell cavity prototypes (one
fine grain, one large grain) have also been fabricated. The
single-cell results are presented in this paper, and the status
of the prototyping effort is reported. | |

| | In order to increase the protons energy up to 8 GeV
in a driver Linac, the particles must be accelerated
through various stages and three different power levels
(25kW, 100kW and 210kW) are required for the 325
MHz Fermilab Proton Driver couplers. The problem
identified by the project is that no High RF power coupler
for these cavities has ever been designed and produced
using US industrial capabilities. AMAC proposed a novel
resolution by development of innovative modular,
multiple power levels, 325 MHz spoke cavities power
couplers, which to meet three type cavities with one
coupler design. The simulation and concept design are
presented. The results of HFSS, MAFIA, ANSYS, and
Multipacting are also discussed. | |

| | Fermilab is involved in an effort to assemble 3.9 GHz
superconducting RF cavities into a four cavity
cryomodule for use at the DESY TTF/FLASH facility as a
third harmonic structure. The design gradient of the
cavities is 14 MV/m. This effort involves design,
fabrication, intermediate testing, assembly, and eventual
delivery of the cryomodule. We report on all facets of this
enterprise from design through future plans. Included will
be test results of single 9-cell cavities, lessons learned,
and current status. | |
