	Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science under Cooperative Agreement DE-SC0000661. After project completion on scope, on cost, and ahead of schedule, the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams began operations for scientific users in May of 2022. During the first 12 months of user operations, the FRIB accelerator complex delivered 5250 beam hours, including 1528 hours to nine science experiments conducted with primary beams of 36Ar, 48Ca, 70Zn, 82Se, 124Xe, and 198Pt at beam energies >200 MeV/u; 2724 hours for beam developments, studies, and tuning; and 998 hours to industrial users and non-scientific programs using the FRIB Single Event Effect (FSEE) beam line. The ramp-up to a beam power of 400 kW is planned over a six-year period; 1 kW was delivered for initial user runs from in 2022, and 5 kW was delivered as of February 2023. Upgrade plans include doubling the primary-beam energy to 400 MeV/nucleon for enhanced discovery potential (¿FRIB 400¿). This talk reports on FRIB status and progress since SRF2021, emphasizing lessons learned during the transition from beam commissioning to machine operations, challenges and resolutions for the power ramp-up, progress with accelerator improvements, and R&D for the energy upgrade.

MOIAA03	Progresses in the ESS Superconducting Linac Installation	linac, MMI, operation, cryogenics	9
	H. Przybilski ESS, Lund, Sweden
	The ESS Linac is progressing into the technical commissioning phase. The normal conducting linac up to the first 4 tanks of the DTL is being commissioned with beam. All the 13 spoke cryomodules and the 9 elliptical modules (7 MB+2 HB) foreseen for the first operation at 570 MeV on the beam dump in summer 2024 are available in Lund and waiting the completion of the cryogenic distribution system (CDS) commissioning. The test program of all the 30 elliptical cryomodules that will enable the 5 MW potential operation after the target commissioning is progressing well, as well as the installation of the RF power stations necessary up to the 2 MW stage of the first project phase. Pilot installation of one spoke and one elliptical CM in the tunnel is in progress. The talk will cover the status of the component deliveries from the partners, the CM preparation and SRF activities at the ESS test stands, with the resolution of several non-conformities, and the experience of the pilot installations and technical commissioning activities in the accelerator tunnel.

MOIAA05	Commissioning of the Second JLAB C75 Cryomodule & Performance Evaluation of Installed C75 Cavities	cavity, SRF, plasma, controls	14
	M.D. McCaughan, G. Ciovati, G.K. Davis, M.A. Drury, T. Powers, A.V. Reilly JLab, Newport News, Virginia, USA
	Funding: This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Nuclear Physics under contract DE-AC05-06OR23177. JLAB has long been a hub of SRF technology with the CEBAF accelerator as one of its first large scale adopters. As SRF technology has advanced, the C50 and C100 programs have allowed for the extension of CEBAF’s total energy to 6 GeV and nearly 12 GeV respectively. Along with the increase in energy reach, rates of accelerating gradient degradation have been extracted for these cryomodule designs. A plan to mitigate these losses & maintain robust gradient headroom to deliver the 12 GeV program ¿ the CEBAF Performance Plan¿ established a multi-year effort of cryomodule refurbishments and replacements. Part of this plan included a cost optimization of the C50 program with more modern processing techniques and the replacement of existing cavities with larger grain boundary cavities produced from ingot Niobium (dubbed C75 for 75 MeV gain). Reports have been made on the prototype pair of C75 cavities installed in a C50 cryomodule and the first full C75 cryomodule installed in 2017 and 2021. This paper reports on the results from the qualification of the cavities for the second C75 module in both a vertical cryostat and the commissioning results of the cryomodule in the CEBAF tunnel.

	Funding: Prepared by PIP-II Project using resources of the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, a U.S. DOE facility, managed by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, acting under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359. The Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) project is an essential upgrade to Fermilab’s particle accelerator complex to enable the world’s most intense neutrino beam for LBNF/DUNE and a broad particle physics program for many decades to come. PIP-II will deliver 1.2 MW of proton beam power from the Main Injector, upgradeable to multi-MW capability. The central element of PIP-II is an 800 MeV superconducting radio frequency (SRF) linac, which comprises a room temperature front end followed by an SRF section. The SRF section consists of five different flavors of cavities/cryomodules, including Half Wave Resonators (HWR), Single Spoke and elliptical resonators operating at, or above, state-of-the-art parameters. The first two PIP-II cryomodules, Half Wave Resonator (HWR) and Single Spoke Resonator 1 (SSR1) were installed in the PIP-II Injector Test facility (PIP2IT) and have accelerated beam to above 17 MeV. PIP-II is the first U.S. accelerator project that will be constructed with significant contributions from international partners, including India, Italy, France, United Kingdom and Poland. The project was baselined in April 2022, and the construction phase is underway.

MOPMB058	Summary of the Superconducting Rf Measurements in AMTF Hall at DESY	cavity, SRF, FEL, superconductivity	248
	M. Wiencek, K. Kasprzak, D. Kostin, D. Reschke, L. Steder DESY, Hamburg, Germany
	The AMTF (Accelerator Module Test Facility) in DESY was built for the tests of all superconducting cavities and cryomodules for the EuXFEL linac. After successful commissioning of the EuXFEL, the AMTF has been adapted in order to perform SRF (super conducting radio frequency) measurements of cavities and accelerating modules for different projects. Several SRF cavities related projects are still ongoing, while other were just finished. Some of those projects are dedicated to test components for the infrastructure of accelerators which are under construction, while the other ones are devoted to new R&D paths aiming for cavities and modules with high performance which are under investigation at DESY. This paper describes present activities performed at AMTF with special emphasis on performing SRF measurements for the ongoing cavities production. Most of the presented data is related to vertical cryostat cavity testing. However, some data about cryomodules and a new coupler test stand will be shown as well. Detailed statistics about the number of vertical tests performed within the last two years are also presented.

	Funding: This manuscript has been authored by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics. Multipacting (MP) is a phenomenon which can affect stability in particle accelerators and limit performance in superconducting radio frequency cavities. In the TESLA shaped, 1.3 GHz, 9-cell cavities used in the LCLS-II (L2) and LCLS-II-HE (HE) projects, the MP-band (~17-24 MV/m) lies within the required accelerating gradients. For HE, the operating gradient of 20.8 MV/m lies well within the MP-band and cryomodule testing has confirmed that this is an issue. As such, MP processing for the HE cryomodule test program will be discussed. Early results on MP processing in cryomodules installed in the L2 linac will also be presented, demonstrating that the methods used in cryomodule acceptance testing are also successful at conditioning MP in the accelerator and that this processing is preserved in the mid-term.

MOPMB065	Design Status of BCC Cryomodule for LCLS-II HE	cavity, simulation, solenoid, cryogenics	263
	C.S. Narug, T.T. Arkan, S. Cheban, M. Chen, B.D. Hartsell, J.A. Kaluzny, V.S. Kashikhin, Y.M. Orlov Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA
	Funding: This manuscript has been authored by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics. A Buncher or Capture Cavity (BCC) Cryomodule is currently in development at Fermilab for use in a second injector for LCLS-II-HE. The BCC Cryomodule is designed to contain one 1.3 GHz cavity and one solenoid magnet as part of a 100MeV low emittance injector. The design considerations for the Cryomodule are similar to the LCLS-II cryomodule with additional requirements to account for additional vacuum loading at the end of this vessel due to the termination of the insulating vacuum. To accomplish this design, the cryomodule is being developed using the experience gained during the development of the LCLS-II cryomodule. The design, analysis, and status of the Cryomodule will be discussed.

MOPMB070	Development of a Non-Intrusive Leak Detection Method for SRF Linacs	radiation, ISOL, SRF, operation	275
	P. Pizzol, R.L. Geng ORNL, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, USA R. Afanador, J.D. Mammosser, V.S. Morozov, D.M. Vandygriff ORNL RAD, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, USA
	The SNS accelerator has been vital in delivering high-impact research for the world scientific community since 2006, with an availability of 99%. This high availability rate is crucial to the success of the facility, and after 16 years of operations, the aging of the components could start to impact this parameter. To mitigate this, condi-tion-based maintenance can be applied to areas of the LINAC to reduce or nullify the possibility of unwanted events that may damage the accelerator functionality. In this work, we describe the development of a non-intrusive leak detection methodology that verifies the health condition of the cryomodule isolation gate valve seals. In case of a sudden vacuum leak in a warm section between the cryomodules, these valves act as a final line of defense to protect the SRF cavities from atmosphere gases contamination, hence knowing their sealing integ-rity condition is paramount. Data taken from the ma-chine during different maintenance periods will be pre-sented, together with the analysis done, to verify the robustness of the numerical method vs. the experimental findings.

MOPMB074	Cryomodule Storage for LCLS-II HE	vacuum, controls, cavity, cathode	282
	D.A. White, M. Checchin, D. Gonnella, J. Hogan, J.T. Maniscalco, R.D. Porter SLAC, Menlo Park, California, USA
	Funding: U.S. Department of Energy The Linac Coherent Light Source-II High Energy (LCLS-II HE) project will upgrade the superconducting LCLS-II with 23 additional cryomodules, increasing the beam energy from 4 GeV to 8 GeV. Due to the user schedule of the existing linac, Cryomodules arriving at SLAC cannot immediately be installed in the linac. They are scheduled to be stored for up to three years before the 12-month installation window. During this storage period, the risk of damage to Cryomodules prior to installation will be mitigated with procedures and best practices incorporating experience from LCLS-II.

	Shenzhen Superconducting Soft-X-Ray Free Electron Laser (S3FEL) has been proposed to build a continuous wave (CW) superconducting linear accelerator and produce FEL in the soft X-ray wavelength region. The proposed S3FEL LINAC consists of twenty-eight SRF cryomodules to accelerate beam energy up to 2.5 GeV. Prior to the cryomodules installed in the tunnel, SRF cavities and cryomodules will be conditioned and tested at a delicate SRF Cryomodule Test Facility (SMTF).The SMTF for S3FEL is currently under design which equipped with two vertical cryostats and three horizontal test benches. R&D work for the SMTF and its corresponding cryomodule assembly procedure is now on going. This paper describes the full set of layout design and implementation of the SMTF for S3FEL project as well as its latest status.

	Funding: Work supported by the LCLS-II project The LCLS-II project has installed a new superconducting linac at SLAC that consists of 35 1.3 GHz cryomodules and 2 3.9 GHz cryomodules. The linac will provide a 4 GeV electron beam for generating soft and hard X-ray pulses. Cavity detuning induced by microphonics was a significant design challenge for the LCLS-II cryomodules. Cryomodules were produced that were within the detuning specification (10 Hz for 1.3 GHz cryomodules) on test stands. Here we present first measurements of the microphonics in the installed LCLS-II superconducting linac. Overall, the microphonics in the linac are manageable with 94% of cavities coming within the detune specification. Only two cavities are gradient limited due to microphonics. We identify a leaking cool down valve as the source of microphonics limiting those two cavities.

MOPMB084	FRIB Driver Linac Integration to Support Operations and Protect SRF Cryomodules	operation, linac, SRF, vacuum	316
	H. Ao, K. Elliott, D.D. Jager, S.H. Kim, L. Popielarski FRIB, East Lansing, Michigan, USA
	Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science under Cooperative Agreement DE-SC0000661. The driver linac for the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University includes 324 superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities, and the SRF particle-free beamline spans approximately 300 meters. Protecting the beamlines against contamination is critical to FRIB operations, and thus, various administrative and engineered controls have been put in place to protect the SRF cryomodules. These controls include local vacuum interlocks for cryomodule isolation, accelerator-wide interlocks, and software controls to safeguard the cryomodules and beamlines. Meanwhile, efforts are being made to provide training and develop programs with the goal of preventing critical failures during maintenance. This paper discusses the measures and approaches used for both system integration to support operations and SRF beamline protection.

MOPMB089	Installation of LCLS-II Cryomodules	vacuum, hardware, cavity, MMI	324
	D.A. White, S. Aderhold, R. Coy, D. Gonnella SLAC, Menlo Park, California, USA
	Funding: U.S. Department of Energy The Linac Coherent Light Source II (LCLS-II) super-conducting accelerator is fully installed and operational. Cryomodules were designed and manufactured by Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) and Thomas Jefferson National Laboratory (JLab) during 2017-2020. From November 2018 through March 2021, SLAC Na-tional Accelerator Laboratory installed 37 Cryomodules. Full system cooldown was completed in March 2022. Installation processes were optimized at SLAC for best quality, especially during particle-free and UHV assem-bly. These processes and successful Cavity and Cry-omodule manufacturing resulted in installed gradient exceeding design requirements by more than 20%. No statistical variation in field emission onsets or magni-tudes were observed between manufacturing and site testing. This paper summarizes SLAC experience during installation, and relevant testing results.

MOPMB090	Measuring Q₀ in LCLS-II Cryomodules Using Helium Liquid Level	cavity, linac, MMI, SRF	327
	L.M. Zacarias, S. Aderhold, D. Gonnella, J.T. Maniscalco, J. Nelson, R.D. Porter SLAC, Menlo Park, California, USA A.T. Cravatta, J.P. Holzbauer, S. Posen Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA M.A. Drury, M.D. McCaughan, C.M. Wilson JLab, Newport News, Virginia, USA
	The nitrogen-doped cavities used in the Linac Coherent Light Source II (LCLS-II) cryomodules have shown an unprecedented high Q₀ in vertical and cryomodule testing compared with cavities prepared with standard methods. While demonstration of high Q₀ in the test stand has been achieved, maintaining that performance in the linac is critical to the success of LCLS-II and future accelerator projects. The LCLS-II cryomodules required a novel method of measuring Q₀, due to hardware incompatibilities with existing procedures. Initially developed at Jefferson Lab during cryomodule acceptance testing before being used in the tunnel at SLAC, we use helium liquid level data to estimate the heat generated by cavities. We first establish the relationship between the rate of helium evaporation from known heat loads using electric heaters, and then use that relationship to determine heat from an RF load. Here we present the full procedure along with the development process, lessons learned, and reproducibility while demonstrating for the first time that world record Q₀ can be maintained within the real accelerator environment.

MOPMB092	Performance of Contaminated Superconducting Linac after Vacuum Excursion	cavity, vacuum, ISAC, linac	332
	Z.Y. Yao, R.E. Laxdal TRIUMF, Vancouver, Canada
	ISAC-II superconducting heavy ion linac is the high energy section of TRIUMF ISAC facility to accelerate rare isotopes with A/q <= 6 from 1.5 MeV/u to above the Cou-lomb barrier for experiments. There was a vacuum excur-sion caused by an operational error and the failure of the fast protection system in summer 2022. The beamline downstream to the SC linac was vented with atmosphere air from the experimental hall resulting in pollution of the linac. This paper reports the RF performance of the con-taminated linac. The typical cavity performance changes, the average magnitude of degradation, the impact range in the SC linac, the observations in the recovery processes and the analyses on the most distinct cavity are discussed. The cavity refurbishment in the recent winter shutdown with the observations and outcomes is also reported. The ISAC-II event provided a unique data set for the SRF community.

MOPMB094	Design of a 1.3 GHz High-Power RF Coupler for Conduction-Cooled Systems	cavity, SRF, radio-frequency, operation	342
	N.A. Stilin, A.T. Holic, M. Liepe, T.I. O’Connell, P. Quigley, J. Sears, V.D. Shemelin, J. Turco Cornell University (CLASSE), Cornell Laboratory for Accelerator-Based Sciences and Education, Ithaca, New York, USA
	Cornell is designing a new standalone, compact SRF cryomodule which uses cryocoolers in place of liquid helium for cooling. One of the biggest challenges in implementing such a system is designing a high-power input coupler which is able to be cooled by the cryocoolers without any additional liquid cryogenics. Due to the limited heat load capacity of the cryocoolers at 4.2 K, this requires very careful thermal isolation of the 4.2 K portion of the coupler and thorough optimization of the RF behavior to minimize losses. This paper will present the various design considerations which enabled the creating of a conduction-cooled 1.3 GHz input coupler capable of delivering up to 100 kW CW RF power.

	Funding: This manuscript has been authored by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics. Two CEBAF 5-cell accelerator cavities have been coated with Nb₃Sn film using the vapor diffusion technique. One cavity was coated in the Jefferson Lab Nb₃Sn cavity coating system, and the other in the Fermilab Nb₃Sn coating system. Both cavities were measured at 4 K and 2 K in the vertical dewar test in each lab and then assembled into a cavity pair at Jefferson Lab. Previous attempts to assemble Nb₃Sn cavities into a cavity pair degraded the superconducting properties of Nb₃Sn-coated cavities. This contribution discusses the efforts to identify and mitigate the pair assembly challenges and will present the results of the vertical tests before and after pair assembly. Notably, one of the cavities reached the highest gradient above 80 mT in the vertical test after the pair assembly.

TUPTB024	Cobotisation of ESS Cryomodule Assembly at CEA	cavity, operation, MMI, SRF	438

	The assembly of cavity string in the clean room is a tedious work that has noisy and painful steps such as cleaning the taped holes of a part. CEA together with the company INGELIANCE has developed a cobot: a collaborative robot operated by an technician one time and repeating the action without the operator. The cobot can work anytime without any operators : therefore it is working at night reducing the assembly duration by some hours. The cobot consists of a FANUC CRX10 a 6-axis arm on an Arvis cart. At CEA, the cobot is used to blow the flange holes of the cavities and bellows. This allows to reduce the noisy steps that the technicians are exposed to. The process is also more reproducible since the cobot does always the same steps. The cobot is used on ESS cavity string to clean the coupler and cavity flanges. Our activities and results will be presented in this poster.

	The Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) that will be installed at Fermilab is the first U.S. accelerator project that will have significant contributions from international partners. CEA¿s scope covers the supply of the 650 MHz low-beta cryomodule sections with the cavities provided by LASA-INFN (Italy) and VECC-DAE (India) as well as the power couplers supplied by Fermilab. This scope includes the assembly of the 650 MHz low-beta cryomodules. Assembly studies have been conducted based on CEA experience acquired on previous projects as well as on the feedback of Fermilab on the assembly of the HB650 prototype cryomodule. This paper presents the organization of assembly phases from the cavity string in the clean room and the assembly of the cryostat to the preparation of the cryomodule before its shipment to Fermilab.

	In complement to the development activities for fusion reactors (JT-60SA & ITER), Fusion for Energy contributes to the R&D for material characterisation facilities. LIPAc is the technical demonstrator for the production and acceleration of a D⁺ beam that will be used for neutron production by nuclear stripping reaction on a liquid Li target. Since its first beam in 2014, the LIPAc construction and commissioning continues and will be concluded with the cryomodule installation, aiming for beam validation at nominal power. The cryomodule assembly, started in March 2019, was paused due to welding issues on the solenoid bellows. The slow pumping group used for the cleanroom assembly also needed improvement to overcome helium contamination. Two and half years were devoted to the pumping improvement and, repair, cold tests and high pressure rinsing of the solenoids. In August 2022, the cleanroom assembly resumed with the mounting of all power couplers to the SRF cavities. Despite good progress, the assembly had to be paused again to fix leaks on different vacuum components and a solenoid BPM port. This paper presents the issues faced and their solutions along the cold mass assembly.

TUPTB029	Measurement of Particulates under Slow Pumping after High Pressure Rinsing of Superconducting Cavity by Using Modified Slow Pumping System	cavity, vacuum, controls, SRF	458
	H. Sakai, E. Kako, R. Katayama, K. Umemori KEK, Ibaraki, Japan
	Funding: This research was partially supported by the research fund from Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT). Slow pumping system was used for particle free vacuum pumping in Superconducting rf accelerator. In KEK, recently slow pumping system was developed for the cryomodule assembly work for STF 9-cell cavities and worked well to reduce the particulates movements under pumping. However, this slow pumping system want to be used for preparation of vertical test. Before assembly work in clean room for vertical test, we normally apply high pressure rinsing. There were many waters in the cavity. Therefore, we kept one night to dry inside cavity in clean room. Unfortunately, there were some waters in the cavity even though we kept drying in clean room for one night. This water might make some icing under pumping and stop pumping in mass flow meter, which used for slow pumping to control the mass flow. Therefore, we modify the slow pumping system to be robust under slow pumping even when water exists in the cavity. In this paper, we present the modified slow pumping system in KEK and the results of the vacuum trend through slow pumping of 9-cell superconducting cavity. Under slow pumping, we measure the particulates after high pressure rinsing by using vacuum particle monitor.

TUPTB031	Operational Consideration in the LIPAc SRF with Potential Solenoid Failure Modes	solenoid, SRF, simulation, operation	467

	The commissioning of LIPAc (Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator) is ongoing at Rokkasho institute of QST for the engineering validation of the accelerator system up to 9 MeV/125 mA. Several SRF cryomodules will be required for IFMIF to accelerate deuterons from 5 MeV to 40 MeV. The prototype of the first of these cryomodules has been manufactured and will be installed and tested on the LIPAc. It holds the eight HWRs (Half Wave Resonator) and RF couplers to accelerate the beam and the eight superconducting solenoids to focus it. During the solenoid HPR process, carried out after fixing welding issues on the solenoid beam line bellows, some concerns appeared about the integrity of two solenoids. The examination with CT scanning of the solenoids revealed that one screw and a few pins had leaved their socket. Although it should be no critical problem, we tried the beam simulation with PIC code TraceWin to determine the location of solenoids whose impact will be minimized to manage in case of failure of solenoid as mitigation action. This paper presents the recommended locations of the suspicious solenoids in the cryomodule and resultant beam conditions through the beam dynamics study.

	Funding: This manuscript has been authored by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics. The 650 MHz cavities have a stronger requirement of niobium mechanical properties because of the geometric shape of the cavity due to reduced beta. The mechanical property of the niobium half-cell was measured following various heat treatments. The 5-cell cavities were tested in a controlled drop test fashion and the real-world road test. The result showed that the 900C heat treatment was compatible with cavity handling and transportation during production. The test provides the bases of the transportation specification and shipping container design guidelines.

	The INFN LASA’s contribution to the ESS Medium Beta Superconducting Linac consists of 36 cavities that raise the proton beam energy from 216 MeV to 571 MeV. Out of the 36 cavities, 28 have been successfully qualified and delivered for assembly into a cryomodule at CEA Saclay. The remaining cavities have been reprocessed in order to bring them up to ESS specifications. To mitigate further delays in the delivery of the cavities, four new ones are currently under construction. We are reporting on the current status of both the recovery actions we have developed so far and the performance of the newly produced resonators.

WEPWB054	In Situ Plasma Processing of Superconducting Cavities at JLab, 2023 Update	cavity, plasma, HOM, radiation	701
	T. Powers, N.C. Brock, T.D. Ganey JLab, Newport News, Virginia, USA
	Jefferson Lab has an ongoing R&D program in plasma processing which just completed a round of production processing in the CEBAF accelerator. Plasma processing is a common technique for removing hydrocarbons from surfaces, which increases the work function and reduces the secondary emission coefficient. Unlike helium processing which relies on ion bombardment of the field emitters, plasma processing uses free oxygen produced in the plasma to break down the hydrocarbons on the surface of the cavity. The initial focus of the effort was processing C100 cavities by injecting RF power into the HOM coupler ports. Results from processing cryomodules in the CEBAF accelerator as well as vertical test results will be presented. The goal will be to improve the operational gradients and the energy margin of the linacs. This work will describe the systems and methods used at JLAB for processing cavities using an argon-oxygen gas mixture as well as a helium-oxygen gas mixture. Before and after plasma processing results will also be presented. Funding provided by SC Nuclear Physics Program through DOE SC Lab funding announcement DE-FOA-0002670.

WEPWB055	First Experience with Liquid Nitrogen Cleaning	cavity, SRF, operation, booster	706
	R.J.M.Y. Ruber, A.B. Eslinger, R.L. Geng JLab, Newport News, Virginia, USA
	Field emission caused by microscopic particulate contamination is a limiting factor for the performance of superconducting RF (SRF) cavities. In an SRF accelerator, particulates may be transported over the surface of an operational SRF cavity, becoming field emitters and consequentially degrading the performance of the SRF cavity. The most commonly used method for removing particulates from cavity surfaces is high-pressure ultra-pure water rinsing. We are developing a novel high-pressure liquid nitrogen cleaning technique that may possibly enable superior cleaning power and particulate removal from cavities in a cryomodule without taking apart the cryomodule components. This technique provides cleaning mechanisms beyond what are accessible by its high-pressure water counterpart and leaves no residues on the cleaned surface. We present the test setup and first experience.

WEPWB057	Refurbishment of an Elbe-Type Cryomodule for Coated HOM-Antenna Tests for MESA	HOM, cavity, electron, niobium	709
	P.S. Plattner, F. Hug, T. Stengler KPH, Mainz, Germany
	Funding: The work received funding by BMBF through 05H21UMRB1. The Mainz Energy-Recovering Superconducting Accelerator (MESA), an energy-recovering (ER) LINAC, is currently under construction at the university Mainz. In the ER mode a continues wave (CW) beam is accelerated from 5 MeV up to 10⁵ MeV with a beam current of up to 1 mA. This current is accelerated and decelerated twice within a cavity. For future experiments, the beam current limit has to be pushed up to 10 mA. An analysis of the MESA cavities has shown that the HOM antennas quench at such high beam currents due to the extensive power deposition and the resulting heating of the HOM coupler. To avoid quenching it is necessary to use superconducting materials with higher critical temperature. For this purpose, the HOM antennas will be coated with NbTiN and Nb3SN and their properties will be investigated. For use in the accelerator, the HOM antennas will be installed in the cavities of a former ALICE cryomodule, kindly provided by STFC Daresburry. This paper will show both the status of the refurbishment of the ALICE module to suit MESA, and the coating of the HOM antennas. The authors would like to express their sincere gratitude to STFC Daresbury for the donation of the ALICE module, which strongly supports SRF research in Mainz.

	Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under contract No. DE-SC0012704 with the U.S. Department of Energy. Pre-installation test results for the RHIC 56 MHz superconducting RF system are presented here. The 56 MHz quarter-wave resonator achieved a stable accelerating potential of 1.1 MV with 13 W of RF loss at 4.5 K demonstrating its viability for increasing the luminosity of sPHENIX collisions. The new 120 kW travelling wave fundamental mode damper and dual 6 kW combined-function fundamental power couplers perform as expected at 3 kW but remain to be operated with the expected ~40 times greater power achievable with the RHIC sPHENIX beams.

	The Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) that will be installed at Fermilab is the first U.S. accelerator project that will have significant contributions from international partners. CEA joined the international collaboration in 2018, and its scope covers the supply of the 650 MHz low-beta cryomodule section, with the design of the cryostat (i.e the cryomodule without the cavities, the power couplers and the frequency tuning systems) and the manufacturing of its components, the assembly and tests of the pre-production cryomodule and 9 production modules. An important milestone was reached in April 2023 with the Final Design Review. This paper presents the detailed design of the 650 MHz low-beta cryomodules.

	CEA Saclay is in charge of the production of 30 elliptical cavities cryomodule as part of the in Kind contribution to the ESS superconducting. The two medium and high beta prototypes and the three first of each type of the series cryomodules have been tested at CEA in slightly different conditions than at ESS (both in terms of cryogenic operation as well as RF conditions). The goal of these tests was to validate the assembly procedure before the delivery of the series to ESS where the final acceptance tests are performed. This paper summarizes the main results obtained during the tests at CEA with a particular attention to the field emission behaviour.

	Funding: Work supported by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DEAC02- 07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics. This contribution reports the design of the production Single Spoke Resonator Type 1 Cryomodule (SSR1 CM) for the PIP-II project at Fermilab. The innovative design is based on a structure, the strongback, which supports the coldmass from the bottom, stays at room temperature during operations, and can slide longitudinally with respect to the vacuum vessel. The Fermilab style cryomodule developed for the prototype Single Spoke Resonator Type 1 (pSSR1), the prototype High Beta 650 MHz (pHB650), and preproduction Single Spoke Resonator Type 2 (ppSSR2) cryomodules is the baseline of the present design. The focus of this contribution is on the results of calculations and finite element analyses performed to optimize the critical components of the cryomodule: vacuum vessel, strongback, thermal shield, and magnetic shield.

	Funding: This manuscript has been authored by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics. In early 2023 the assembly of the prototype HB650 cryomodule (pHB650 CM) was completed and cold tests started to evaluate its performance. The lessons learned from the design, assembly and preliminary cold tests of this cryomodule, and from the design of the SSR2 pre-production cryomodule played a fundamental role during the design optimization process of the production HB650 cryomodule (HB650 CM). Several workshops have been organized to share experiences and solve problems. This paper presents the main design changes from pHB650 to the HB650 production cryomodules and their impact on the heat loads.

WEPWB068	Characterization of Additive Manufacturing Materials for String Assembly in Cleanroom	cavity, SRF, linac, detector	746
	J. Bernardini, M. Parise, D. Passarelli Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA
	Funding: Work supported by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DEAC02- 07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics. Beamline components, such as superconducting radio frequency cavities and focusing lenses, need to be assembled together in a string while in a cleanroom environment. The present contribution identifies and characterizes materials for additive manufacturing that can be used in a cleanroom. The well known advantages of additive manufacturing processes would highly benefit the design and development of tooling needed for the mechanical support and alignment of string components. Cleanliness, mechanical properties, and leak tightness of the chosen materials are the main focus of this contribution, which also paves the way for the integration of such materials in cryomodule assemblies. Results reported here were obtained in the framework of the PIP-II project at Fermilab.

	Funding: Work supported by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DEAC02- 07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy The PIP-II Project will receive fully assembled cryomodules from CEA and STFC-UKRI as in-kind contributions. Damage to these cryomodules during transport is understood to be a significant risk to the project, so an extensive testing and validation program is in process to mitigate this risk. The centerpiece of this effort is the eventual shipment from FNAL to STFC-UKRI and back of a prototype HB650 cryomodule with cold testing before and after shipment to verify no functionality changes from shipment. Most recently, a test shipment to the UK and back using a cryomodule analog was completed using realistic logistics, handling, instrumentation, and planning. The process of executing this test shipment, lessons learned, and plan moving forward will be presented here.

	Funding: This manuscript has been authored by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics. During the design stages of the PIP-II cryomodules, many analytical calculations and FEA have been performed on simpler geometry in order to estimate the heat loads and also to optimize the design. To better analyze the cryomodule cold tests, simulations have been performed with MATLAB to determine the temperature of the main components during cool down and to determine the heat loads of the cryomodule. These simulations have been applied to the High Beta 650 MHz prototype cryomodule design and compared to the cold tests performed on it.

WEPWB082	Operational Experience with Turn-Key SRF Systems for Small Accelerators Like MESA	SRF, operation, cryogenics, cavity	768
	T. Stengler, K. Aulenbacher, F. Hug, P.S. Plattner KPH, Mainz, Germany
	Funding: The work is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) under the Cluster of Excellence "PRISMA+" EXC 2118/2019 and the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) through project 05H21UMRB1 New SRF-based accelerator development at sites without long-term experience in SRF development is a major challenge. Especially in-house development of cryomodules is an almost impossible obstacle to overcome for small projects. To minimize such obstacles, turn-key SRF systems provided by industry can be of great importance. For the multiturn ERL MESA, which is currently under construction at Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, two turnkey cryomodules have been purchased from industry and successfully tested. The specifications of a design gradient of 12.5 MV/m in CW operation with an unloaded Q of 1.25*10¹⁰ at 1.8 K had to be met. Since the design of the modules had to be modified for high current CW operation, a close cooperation with the manufacturer was of great importance. By purchasing such a turn-key SRF system, the MESA project successfully established the SRF accelerator technology at the site within six years. This was achieved through close monitoring of the manufacturing process and close cooperation with the manufacturer. An overview of the experience with the successful technology transfer of a complete turn-key SRF system for small accelerators will be given.

WEPWB087	Copper Plating Qualification Process for the Fundamental Power Coupler Waveguides for CEBAF Cryomodules	GUI, SRF, cavity, operation	790
	L. Zhao, G. Cheng, G. Ciovati, K.M. Wilson JLab, Newport News, Virginia, USA
	Funding: Authored by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC, supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Nuclear Physics under contract DE-AC05-06OR23177. To provide sufficient energy for CEBAF operation, cryomodules and components are being refurbished yearly as necessary. Copper plated fundamental power coupler waveguides are important components of the cryomodules. The integrity and quality of copper plating is critical to reduce the heat load from the waveguides into the He bath at 2.07 K. A search of copper plating resources is underway for plating or re-plating CEBAF-style waveguides. This effort ensures a continuous capability of copper plating on cryomodule components, especially on waveguides. To qualify plating vendors, the waveguide copper plating specifications were revisited, and a thorough plating evaluation process is being developed. The evaluation process ranges from coupon testing to sample waveguide qualification. Recent results are summarized and future work is planned.

	Funding: This manuscript has been authored by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics. The PIP-II Project will see international shipment of cryomodules from Europe to the United States, and as such, the shocks which can occur during shipment pose a risk to the internal components. Of particular concern is the coupler ceramic window and surrounding brazes, which can see relatively high stress during an excitation event. Since the antenna design is new, and because of the setback failure would create, a cyclic stress test was devised for the antenna. This paper presents the experimental methods, setup, and results of the test.

	650 MHz fundamental power couplers were developed for PIP-II project to deliver RF power for low-beta and high-beta elliptical cavities. Few prototypes were built and tested and after some modification we built 8 pre-production couplers (with three spares for vacuum side) for ppHB650 cryomodule. All couplers were successfully tested in pulse mode (up to 100kW) and in CW mode (up to 50kW) in test stand at full reflection at 8 phases. In baseline configuration with DC bias we do not see any multipactoring activity after short processing. We also tested power processing without bias for uncoated and TiN coated ceramic window. Results of these studies presented in this paper. One of the coupler was assembled on LB650 cavity and tested at cryogenic environment in STC cryostat at ~30kW power with full reflection at different reflection phase. We also demonstrated good result from power processing without bias for warm and cold cavity. Six couplers were assembled on HB650 cavities in pre-production cryomodule. Test results from cryomodule qualification is discussing in this paper.

	Funding: Project supported by Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Major Project (Grant No.2017SHZDZX02). The superconducting radio-frequency electron linear accelerator of the Shanghai HIgh repetition rate XFEL aNd Extreme light facility (SHINE) contains 610 1.3 GHz fundamental power couplers which are assembled in 77 superconducting cryomodules used for beam acceleration, and 16 3.9 GHz fundamental power couplers, which are assembled in two third harmonic superconducting cryomodules used for linearizing the longitudinal phase space. The first batch of 26 1.3 GHz coupler prototypes and two 3.9 GHz coupler prototypes have been fabricated from three domestic manufacturers for basic research. Several key manufacturing processes have been developed and qualified, including high residual resistivity ratio (RRR) copper plating, vacuum brazing of ceramic windows, electron beam welding and titanium nitride coating. All the 1.3 GHz coupler prototypes have been power conditioned with 14 kW travelling wave (TW) and 7 kW standing wave (SW) RF in continuous-wave (CW) mode. Even higher power levels have been demonstrated with 20 kW TW and 10 kW SW RF, which indicates their robustness. Both 3.9 GHz coupler prototypes have been power conditioned with 2.2 kW TW and 2 kW SW RF in CW mode.

WEPWB120	Flux Expulsion Testing for LCLS-II-HE Cavity Production	cavity, niobium, SRF, ECR	876

	Nitrogen-doped niobium SRF cavities are sensitive to trapped magnetic flux, which decreases the cavity intrinsic Q₀. Prior experimental results have shown that heat treatments to 900°C and higher can result in stronger flux expulsion during cooldown; the precise temperature required tends to vary by vendor lot/ingot of the niobium material used in the cavity cells. For LCLS-II-HE, to ensure sufficient flux expulsion in all cavities, we built and tested single-cell cavities to determine this required temperature for each vendor lot of niobium material to be used in cavity cells. In this report, we present the results of the single-cell flux expulsion testing and the Q₀ of the nine-cell cavities built using the characterized vendor lots. We discuss mixing material from different vendor lots, examine the lessons learned, and finally present an outlook on possible refinements to the single-cell technique.

THIAA04	Performance Analysis of Spoke Resonators, Statistics from Cavity Fabrication to Cryomodule Testing	cavity, SRF, operation, proton	940
	A. Miyazaki, P. Duchesne, D. Le Dréan, D. Longuevergne, G. Olry Université Paris-Saclay, CNRS/IN2P3, IJCLab, Orsay, France
	Irène Joliot-Curie Laboratory (IJCLab) has been leading the development of spoke resonators in multiple interna- tional SRF projects, from fundamental R&D, prototyping, to series production. The European Spallation Source (ESS) superconducting linac is the first of its kind to put into op- eration the spoke resonators. After three prototype cavities, 29 ESS production cavities have been processed, tested, as- sembled into cryomodules at IJCLab, and then shipped to Uppsala for the site acceptance test. Seven prototypes for two other major projects, Multi-purpose hYbrid Research Reactor for High-tech Application (MYRRHA) and Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II), designed in collaboration with external institutions, have as well been processed and tested at IJCLab. A new challenge is to fully process series cavi- ties in industry, following the successful implementation of 1.3 GHz elliptical cavities in the other projects. This paper summarises main results obtained from fabrication to final testing, including frequency tuning strategy, performance, limitation in vertical cryostat, and identifies future direction of projects and R&D in the field of spoke cavities.

	Thanks to improvements in the performance of both commercial cryocoolers and Nb₃Sn-coated superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities, it is now possible to design and build compact, SRF cryomodules without the need for liquid cryogenics. In addition, these systems offer robust, non-expert, turn-key operation, making SRF technology significantly more accessible for smaller-scale applications in fields such as industry, national security, medicine, environmental sustainability, etc. To fully realize these systems, many technical and operational challenges must be overcome. These include properly cooling the SRF cavity via thermal conduction and designing high-power (~ 100 kW continuous) RF couplers which dissipate minimal heat (~ 1 W) at 4.2 K. This presentation will discuss these challenges and the solutions which have been developed at Cornell University and elsewhere.

FRIBA05	Automation of FRIB SRF Cavities and SC Solenoids Turn-on/off	cavity, solenoid, SRF, linac	999

	The superconducting driver Linac for the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is a heavy ion accelerator that accelerate ions to 200 MeV per nucleon. The Linac has 46 cryomodules that contain 324 superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities and 69 superconducting (SC) solenoid packages. For operation of all cryomodules with high efficiency and reliability, automation for SRF cavity and SC solenoid fast turn-on/off is essentially. Based on cryomodule commissioning results and expert experience, all manual cavity and solenoid turn-on/off procedures and steps have been replaced by automatic programs for FRIB linac operation. This allows the operators to turn the systems on and off without expert-level training. Automation reduces the risk of human error, speeds up beam recovery after user access to experimental areas, and increases beam availability. The cavity turn-on procedure makes sure that the cavity can operate at low field with expected read backs, ramps up the field, and makes sure that the RF amplitude and phase are stable. The design, implementation, and operating experience with automation will be presented.

	Funding: Work supported by the Department of Energy under Contract DE-AC02-76SF00515 The Linac Coherent Light Source II High Energy (LCLS-II-HE) Project at SLAC includes the construction of a low-emittance injector (LEI) and a superconducting quarter-wave resonator (QWR) at 185.7 MHz. Several alternatives to a superconducting radio frequency (SRF) QWR gun were considered for the LEI, including nor-mal-conducting RF guns evolved from the LCLS-II gun design. Compared to normal-conducting designs, the combination of an intrinsically outstanding vacuum environment (for cathode lifetime), and the potential for a larger ultimate performance envelope, led to the deci-sion to pursue development of the QWR-SRF gun. A prototype gun is currently being designed and fabricated at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michi-gan State University (MSU). This paper presents perfor-mance goals for the new gun design, an overview of the prototype development effort, status, and future plans including fabrication.

After project completion on scope, on cost, and ahead of schedule, the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams began operations for scientific users in May of 2022. During the first 12 months of user operations, the FRIB accelerator complex delivered 5250 beam hours, including 1528 hours to nine science experiments conducted with primary beams of 36Ar, 48Ca, 70Zn, 82Se, 124Xe, and 198Pt at beam energies >200 MeV/u; 2724 hours for beam developments, studies, and tuning; and 998 hours to industrial users and non-scientific programs using the FRIB Single Event Effect (FSEE) beam line. The ramp-up to a beam power of 400 kW is planned over a six-year period; 1 kW was delivered for initial user runs from in 2022, and 5 kW was delivered as of February 2023. Upgrade plans include doubling the primary-beam energy to 400 MeV/nucleon for enhanced discovery potential (¿FRIB 400¿). This talk reports on FRIB status and progress since SRF2021, emphasizing lessons learned during the transition from beam commissioning to machine operations, challenges and resolutions for the power ramp-up, progress with accelerator improvements, and R&D for the energy upgrade.

ESS, Lund, Sweden

The ESS Linac is progressing into the technical commissioning phase. The normal conducting linac up to the first 4 tanks of the DTL is being commissioned with beam. All the 13 spoke cryomodules and the 9 elliptical modules (7 MB+2 HB) foreseen for the first operation at 570 MeV on the beam dump in summer 2024 are available in Lund and waiting the completion of the cryogenic distribution system (CDS) commissioning. The test program of all the 30 elliptical cryomodules that will enable the 5 MW potential operation after the target commissioning is progressing well, as well as the installation of the RF power stations necessary up to the 2 MW stage of the first project phase. Pilot installation of one spoke and one elliptical CM in the tunnel is in progress. The talk will cover the status of the component deliveries from the partners, the CM preparation and SRF activities at the ESS test stands, with the resolution of several non-conformities, and the experience of the pilot installations and technical commissioning activities in the accelerator tunnel.

JLAB has long been a hub of SRF technology with the CEBAF accelerator as one of its first large scale adopters. As SRF technology has advanced, the C50 and C100 programs have allowed for the extension of CEBAF’s total energy to 6 GeV and nearly 12 GeV respectively. Along with the increase in energy reach, rates of accelerating gradient degradation have been extracted for these cryomodule designs. A plan to mitigate these losses & maintain robust gradient headroom to deliver the 12 GeV program ¿ the CEBAF Performance Plan¿ established a multi-year effort of cryomodule refurbishments and replacements. Part of this plan included a cost optimization of the C50 program with more modern processing techniques and the replacement of existing cavities with larger grain boundary cavities produced from ingot Niobium (dubbed C75 for 75 MeV gain). Reports have been made on the prototype pair of C75 cavities installed in a C50 cryomodule and the first full C75 cryomodule installed in 2017 and 2021. This paper reports on the results from the qualification of the cavities for the second C75 module in both a vertical cryostat and the commissioning results of the cryomodule in the CEBAF tunnel.

Funding: Prepared by PIP-II Project using resources of the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, a U.S. DOE facility, managed by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, acting under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359.
The Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) project is an essential upgrade to Fermilab’s particle accelerator complex to enable the world’s most intense neutrino beam for LBNF/DUNE and a broad particle physics program for many decades to come. PIP-II will deliver 1.2 MW of proton beam power from the Main Injector, upgradeable to multi-MW capability. The central element of PIP-II is an 800 MeV superconducting radio frequency (SRF) linac, which comprises a room temperature front end followed by an SRF section. The SRF section consists of five different flavors of cavities/cryomodules, including Half Wave Resonators (HWR), Single Spoke and elliptical resonators operating at, or above, state-of-the-art parameters. The first two PIP-II cryomodules, Half Wave Resonator (HWR) and Single Spoke Resonator 1 (SSR1) were installed in the PIP-II Injector Test facility (PIP2IT) and have accelerated beam to above 17 MeV. PIP-II is the first U.S. accelerator project that will be constructed with significant contributions from international partners, including India, Italy, France, United Kingdom and Poland. The project was baselined in April 2022, and the construction phase is underway.

As a part of the French In-Kind Contributions to this project, CEA will provide ten 650 MHz low-beta cryomodules (LB650) equipped with LASA-INFN (Italy) and VECC-DAE (India) cavities and Fermilab power couplers and RF tuning systems. CEA is accordingly in charge of the design, manufacturing, assembly and testing of these cryomodules. This paper presents the future implementation of the test stand dedicated to the cryogenic and RF power testing of the LB650 cryomodules. The choice of the equipment and the current status will be detailed, as well.

The AMTF (Accelerator Module Test Facility) in DESY was built for the tests of all superconducting cavities and cryomodules for the EuXFEL linac. After successful commissioning of the EuXFEL, the AMTF has been adapted in order to perform SRF (super conducting radio frequency) measurements of cavities and accelerating modules for different projects. Several SRF cavities related projects are still ongoing, while other were just finished. Some of those projects are dedicated to test components for the infrastructure of accelerators which are under construction, while the other ones are devoted to new R&D paths aiming for cavities and modules with high performance which are under investigation at DESY. This paper describes present activities performed at AMTF with special emphasis on performing SRF measurements for the ongoing cavities production. Most of the presented data is related to vertical cryostat cavity testing. However, some data about cryomodules and a new coupler test stand will be shown as well. Detailed statistics about the number of vertical tests performed within the last two years are also presented.

Multipacting (MP) is a phenomenon which can affect stability in particle accelerators and limit performance in superconducting radio frequency cavities. In the TESLA shaped, 1.3 GHz, 9-cell cavities used in the LCLS-II (L2) and LCLS-II-HE (HE) projects, the MP-band (~17-24 MV/m) lies within the required accelerating gradients. For HE, the operating gradient of 20.8 MV/m lies well within the MP-band and cryomodule testing has confirmed that this is an issue. As such, MP processing for the HE cryomodule test program will be discussed. Early results on MP processing in cryomodules installed in the L2 linac will also be presented, demonstrating that the methods used in cryomodule acceptance testing are also successful at conditioning MP in the accelerator and that this processing is preserved in the mid-term.

A Buncher or Capture Cavity (BCC) Cryomodule is currently in development at Fermilab for use in a second injector for LCLS-II-HE. The BCC Cryomodule is designed to contain one 1.3 GHz cavity and one solenoid magnet as part of a 100MeV low emittance injector. The design considerations for the Cryomodule are similar to the LCLS-II cryomodule with additional requirements to account for additional vacuum loading at the end of this vessel due to the termination of the insulating vacuum. To accomplish this design, the cryomodule is being developed using the experience gained during the development of the LCLS-II cryomodule. The design, analysis, and status of the Cryomodule will be discussed.

The SNS accelerator has been vital in delivering high-impact research for the world scientific community since 2006, with an availability of 99%. This high availability rate is crucial to the success of the facility, and after 16 years of operations, the aging of the components could start to impact this parameter. To mitigate this, condi-tion-based maintenance can be applied to areas of the LINAC to reduce or nullify the possibility of unwanted events that may damage the accelerator functionality. In this work, we describe the development of a non-intrusive leak detection methodology that verifies the health condition of the cryomodule isolation gate valve seals. In case of a sudden vacuum leak in a warm section between the cryomodules, these valves act as a final line of defense to protect the SRF cavities from atmosphere gases contamination, hence knowing their sealing integ-rity condition is paramount. Data taken from the ma-chine during different maintenance periods will be pre-sented, together with the analysis done, to verify the robustness of the numerical method vs. the experimental findings.

The Linac Coherent Light Source-II High Energy (LCLS-II HE) project will upgrade the superconducting LCLS-II with 23 additional cryomodules, increasing the beam energy from 4 GeV to 8 GeV. Due to the user schedule of the existing linac, Cryomodules arriving at SLAC cannot immediately be installed in the linac. They are scheduled to be stored for up to three years before the 12-month installation window. During this storage period, the risk of damage to Cryomodules prior to installation will be mitigated with procedures and best practices incorporating experience from LCLS-II.

Shenzhen Superconducting Soft-X-Ray Free Electron Laser (S3FEL) has been proposed to build a continuous wave (CW) superconducting linear accelerator and produce FEL in the soft X-ray wavelength region. The proposed S3FEL LINAC consists of twenty-eight SRF cryomodules to accelerate beam energy up to 2.5 GeV. Prior to the cryomodules installed in the tunnel, SRF cavities and cryomodules will be conditioned and tested at a delicate SRF Cryomodule Test Facility (SMTF).The SMTF for S3FEL is currently under design which equipped with two vertical cryostats and three horizontal test benches. R&D work for the SMTF and its corresponding cryomodule assembly procedure is now on going. This paper describes the full set of layout design and implementation of the SMTF for S3FEL project as well as its latest status.

Funding: Work supported by the LCLS-II project
The LCLS-II project has installed a new superconducting linac at SLAC that consists of 35 1.3 GHz cryomodules and 2 3.9 GHz cryomodules. The linac will provide a 4 GeV electron beam for generating soft and hard X-ray pulses. Cavity detuning induced by microphonics was a significant design challenge for the LCLS-II cryomodules. Cryomodules were produced that were within the detuning specification (10 Hz for 1.3 GHz cryomodules) on test stands. Here we present first measurements of the microphonics in the installed LCLS-II superconducting linac. Overall, the microphonics in the linac are manageable with 94% of cavities coming within the detune specification. Only two cavities are gradient limited due to microphonics. We identify a leaking cool down valve as the source of microphonics limiting those two cavities.

The driver linac for the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University includes 324 superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities, and the SRF particle-free beamline spans approximately 300 meters. Protecting the beamlines against contamination is critical to FRIB operations, and thus, various administrative and engineered controls have been put in place to protect the SRF cryomodules. These controls include local vacuum interlocks for cryomodule isolation, accelerator-wide interlocks, and software controls to safeguard the cryomodules and beamlines. Meanwhile, efforts are being made to provide training and develop programs with the goal of preventing critical failures during maintenance. This paper discusses the measures and approaches used for both system integration to support operations and SRF beamline protection.

The Linac Coherent Light Source II (LCLS-II) super-conducting accelerator is fully installed and operational. Cryomodules were designed and manufactured by Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) and Thomas Jefferson National Laboratory (JLab) during 2017-2020. From November 2018 through March 2021, SLAC Na-tional Accelerator Laboratory installed 37 Cryomodules. Full system cooldown was completed in March 2022. Installation processes were optimized at SLAC for best quality, especially during particle-free and UHV assem-bly. These processes and successful Cavity and Cry-omodule manufacturing resulted in installed gradient exceeding design requirements by more than 20%. No statistical variation in field emission onsets or magni-tudes were observed between manufacturing and site testing. This paper summarizes SLAC experience during installation, and relevant testing results.

The nitrogen-doped cavities used in the Linac Coherent Light Source II (LCLS-II) cryomodules have shown an unprecedented high Q₀ in vertical and cryomodule testing compared with cavities prepared with standard methods. While demonstration of high Q₀ in the test stand has been achieved, maintaining that performance in the linac is critical to the success of LCLS-II and future accelerator projects. The LCLS-II cryomodules required a novel method of measuring Q₀, due to hardware incompatibilities with existing procedures. Initially developed at Jefferson Lab during cryomodule acceptance testing before being used in the tunnel at SLAC, we use helium liquid level data to estimate the heat generated by cavities. We first establish the relationship between the rate of helium evaporation from known heat loads using electric heaters, and then use that relationship to determine heat from an RF load. Here we present the full procedure along with the development process, lessons learned, and reproducibility while demonstrating for the first time that world record Q₀ can be maintained within the real accelerator environment.

TRIUMF, Vancouver, Canada

ISAC-II superconducting heavy ion linac is the high energy section of TRIUMF ISAC facility to accelerate rare isotopes with A/q <= 6 from 1.5 MeV/u to above the Cou-lomb barrier for experiments. There was a vacuum excur-sion caused by an operational error and the failure of the fast protection system in summer 2022. The beamline downstream to the SC linac was vented with atmosphere air from the experimental hall resulting in pollution of the linac. This paper reports the RF performance of the con-taminated linac. The typical cavity performance changes, the average magnitude of degradation, the impact range in the SC linac, the observations in the recovery processes and the analyses on the most distinct cavity are discussed. The cavity refurbishment in the recent winter shutdown with the observations and outcomes is also reported. The ISAC-II event provided a unique data set for the SRF community.

Cornell is designing a new standalone, compact SRF cryomodule which uses cryocoolers in place of liquid helium for cooling. One of the biggest challenges in implementing such a system is designing a high-power input coupler which is able to be cooled by the cryocoolers without any additional liquid cryogenics. Due to the limited heat load capacity of the cryocoolers at 4.2 K, this requires very careful thermal isolation of the 4.2 K portion of the coupler and thorough optimization of the RF behavior to minimize losses. This paper will present the various design considerations which enabled the creating of a conduction-cooled 1.3 GHz input coupler capable of delivering up to 100 kW CW RF power.

Many changes and upgrades took place to transform a test stand for single cryomodules to a successful free electron laser. We summarize here the main steps of the FLASH history from the cryogenic point of view including the latest major upgrade that took place in 2022. We also give an overview of cryomodule performances like cavity gradient and heat load measurements and their evolution over the time.

Two CEBAF 5-cell accelerator cavities have been coated with Nb₃Sn film using the vapor diffusion technique. One cavity was coated in the Jefferson Lab Nb₃Sn cavity coating system, and the other in the Fermilab Nb₃Sn coating system. Both cavities were measured at 4 K and 2 K in the vertical dewar test in each lab and then assembled into a cavity pair at Jefferson Lab. Previous attempts to assemble Nb₃Sn cavities into a cavity pair degraded the superconducting properties of Nb₃Sn-coated cavities. This contribution discusses the efforts to identify and mitigate the pair assembly challenges and will present the results of the vertical tests before and after pair assembly. Notably, one of the cavities reached the highest gradient above 80 mT in the vertical test after the pair assembly.

The assembly of cavity string in the clean room is a tedious work that has noisy and painful steps such as cleaning the taped holes of a part. CEA together with the company INGELIANCE has developed a cobot: a collaborative robot operated by an technician one time and repeating the action without the operator. The cobot can work anytime without any operators : therefore it is working at night reducing the assembly duration by some hours. The cobot consists of a FANUC CRX10 a 6-axis arm on an Arvis cart. At CEA, the cobot is used to blow the flange holes of the cavities and bellows. This allows to reduce the noisy steps that the technicians are exposed to. The process is also more reproducible since the cobot does always the same steps. The cobot is used on ESS cavity string to clean the coupler and cavity flanges. Our activities and results will be presented in this poster.

The Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) that will be installed at Fermilab is the first U.S. accelerator project that will have significant contributions from international partners. CEA¿s scope covers the supply of the 650 MHz low-beta cryomodule sections with the cavities provided by LASA-INFN (Italy) and VECC-DAE (India) as well as the power couplers supplied by Fermilab. This scope includes the assembly of the 650 MHz low-beta cryomodules. Assembly studies have been conducted based on CEA experience acquired on previous projects as well as on the feedback of Fermilab on the assembly of the HB650 prototype cryomodule.

In complement to the development activities for fusion reactors (JT-60SA & ITER), Fusion for Energy contributes to the R&D for material characterisation facilities. LIPAc is the technical demonstrator for the production and acceleration of a D⁺ beam that will be used for neutron production by nuclear stripping reaction on a liquid Li target. Since its first beam in 2014, the LIPAc construction and commissioning continues and will be concluded with the cryomodule installation, aiming for beam validation at nominal power. The cryomodule assembly, started in March 2019, was paused due to welding issues on the solenoid bellows. The slow pumping group used for the cleanroom assembly also needed improvement to overcome helium contamination. Two and half years were devoted to the pumping improvement and, repair, cold tests and high pressure rinsing of the solenoids. In August 2022, the cleanroom assembly resumed with the mounting of all power couplers to the SRF cavities. Despite good progress, the assembly had to be paused again to fix leaks on different vacuum components and a solenoid BPM port. This paper presents the issues faced and their solutions along the cold mass assembly.

Slow pumping system was used for particle free vacuum pumping in Superconducting rf accelerator. In KEK, recently slow pumping system was developed for the cryomodule assembly work for STF 9-cell cavities and worked well to reduce the particulates movements under pumping. However, this slow pumping system want to be used for preparation of vertical test. Before assembly work in clean room for vertical test, we normally apply high pressure rinsing. There were many waters in the cavity. Therefore, we kept one night to dry inside cavity in clean room. Unfortunately, there were some waters in the cavity even though we kept drying in clean room for one night. This water might make some icing under pumping and stop pumping in mass flow meter, which used for slow pumping to control the mass flow. Therefore, we modify the slow pumping system to be robust under slow pumping even when water exists in the cavity. In this paper, we present the modified slow pumping system in KEK and the results of the vacuum trend through slow pumping of 9-cell superconducting cavity. Under slow pumping, we measure the particulates after high pressure rinsing by using vacuum particle monitor.

The commissioning of LIPAc (Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator) is ongoing at Rokkasho institute of QST for the engineering validation of the accelerator system up to 9 MeV/125 mA. Several SRF cryomodules will be required for IFMIF to accelerate deuterons from 5 MeV to 40 MeV. The prototype of the first of these cryomodules has been manufactured and will be installed and tested on the LIPAc. It holds the eight HWRs (Half Wave Resonator) and RF couplers to accelerate the beam and the eight superconducting solenoids to focus it. During the solenoid HPR process, carried out after fixing welding issues on the solenoid beam line bellows, some concerns appeared about the integrity of two solenoids. The examination with CT scanning of the solenoids revealed that one screw and a few pins had leaved their socket. Although it should be no critical problem, we tried the beam simulation with PIC code TraceWin to determine the location of solenoids whose impact will be minimized to manage in case of failure of solenoid as mitigation action. This paper presents the recommended locations of the suspicious solenoids in the cryomodule and resultant beam conditions through the beam dynamics study.

The 650 MHz cavities have a stronger requirement of niobium mechanical properties because of the geometric shape of the cavity due to reduced beta. The mechanical property of the niobium half-cell was measured following various heat treatments. The 5-cell cavities were tested in a controlled drop test fashion and the real-world road test. The result showed that the 900C heat treatment was compatible with cavity handling and transportation during production. The test provides the bases of the transportation specification and shipping container design guidelines.

The INFN LASA’s contribution to the ESS Medium Beta Superconducting Linac consists of 36 cavities that raise the proton beam energy from 216 MeV to 571 MeV. Out of the 36 cavities, 28 have been successfully qualified and delivered for assembly into a cryomodule at CEA Saclay. The remaining cavities have been reprocessed in order to bring them up to ESS specifications. To mitigate further delays in the delivery of the cavities, four new ones are currently under construction. We are reporting on the current status of both the recovery actions we have developed so far and the performance of the newly produced resonators.

In Situ Plasma Processing of Superconducting Cavities at JLab, 2023 Update

701

JLab, Newport News, Virginia, USA

Jefferson Lab has an ongoing R&D program in plasma processing which just completed a round of production processing in the CEBAF accelerator. Plasma processing is a common technique for removing hydrocarbons from surfaces, which increases the work function and reduces the secondary emission coefficient. Unlike helium processing which relies on ion bombardment of the field emitters, plasma processing uses free oxygen produced in the plasma to break down the hydrocarbons on the surface of the cavity. The initial focus of the effort was processing C100 cavities by injecting RF power into the HOM coupler ports. Results from processing cryomodules in the CEBAF accelerator as well as vertical test results will be presented. The goal will be to improve the operational gradients and the energy margin of the linacs. This work will describe the systems and methods used at JLAB for processing cavities using an argon-oxygen gas mixture as well as a helium-oxygen gas mixture. Before and after plasma processing results will also be presented.

First Experience with Liquid Nitrogen Cleaning

JLab, Newport News, Virginia, USA

Field emission caused by microscopic particulate contamination is a limiting factor for the performance of superconducting RF (SRF) cavities. In an SRF accelerator, particulates may be transported over the surface of an operational SRF cavity, becoming field emitters and consequentially degrading the performance of the SRF cavity. The most commonly used method for removing particulates from cavity surfaces is high-pressure ultra-pure water rinsing. We are developing a novel high-pressure liquid nitrogen cleaning technique that may possibly enable superior cleaning power and particulate removal from cavities in a cryomodule without taking apart the cryomodule components. This technique provides cleaning mechanisms beyond what are accessible by its high-pressure water counterpart and leaves no residues on the cleaned surface. We present the test setup and first experience.

Refurbishment of an Elbe-Type Cryomodule for Coated HOM-Antenna Tests for MESA

Funding: The work received funding by BMBF through 05H21UMRB1.
The Mainz Energy-Recovering Superconducting Accelerator (MESA), an energy-recovering (ER) LINAC, is currently under construction at the university Mainz. In the ER mode a continues wave (CW) beam is accelerated from 5 MeV up to 10⁵ MeV with a beam current of up to 1 mA. This current is accelerated and decelerated twice within a cavity. For future experiments, the beam current limit has to be pushed up to 10 mA. An analysis of the MESA cavities has shown that the HOM antennas quench at such high beam currents due to the extensive power deposition and the resulting heating of the HOM coupler. To avoid quenching it is necessary to use superconducting materials with higher critical temperature. For this purpose, the HOM antennas will be coated with NbTiN and Nb3SN and their properties will be investigated. For use in the accelerator, the HOM antennas will be installed in the cavities of a former ALICE cryomodule, kindly provided by STFC Daresburry. This paper will show both the status of the refurbishment of the ALICE module to suit MESA, and the coating of the HOM antennas.
The authors would like to express their sincere gratitude to STFC Daresbury for the donation of the ALICE module, which strongly supports SRF research in Mainz.

Pre-installation test results for the RHIC 56 MHz superconducting RF system are presented here. The 56 MHz quarter-wave resonator achieved a stable accelerating potential of 1.1 MV with 13 W of RF loss at 4.5 K demonstrating its viability for increasing the luminosity of sPHENIX collisions. The new 120 kW travelling wave fundamental mode damper and dual 6 kW combined-function fundamental power couplers perform as expected at 3 kW but remain to be operated with the expected ~40 times greater power achievable with the RHIC sPHENIX beams.

The Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) that will be installed at Fermilab is the first U.S. accelerator project that will have significant contributions from international partners. CEA joined the international collaboration in 2018, and its scope covers the supply of the 650 MHz low-beta cryomodule section, with the design of the cryostat (i.e the cryomodule without the cavities, the power couplers and the frequency tuning systems) and the manufacturing of its components, the assembly and tests of the pre-production cryomodule and 9 production modules. An important milestone was reached in April 2023 with the Final Design Review. This paper presents the detailed design of the 650 MHz low-beta cryomodules.

CEA Saclay is in charge of the production of 30 elliptical cavities cryomodule as part of the in Kind contribution to the ESS superconducting. The two medium and high beta prototypes and the three first of each type of the series cryomodules have been tested at CEA in slightly different conditions than at ESS (both in terms of cryogenic operation as well as RF conditions). The goal of these tests was to validate the assembly procedure before the delivery of the series to ESS where the final acceptance tests are performed. This paper summarizes the main results obtained during the tests at CEA with a particular attention to the field emission behaviour.

This contribution reports the design of the production Single Spoke Resonator Type 1 Cryomodule (SSR1 CM) for the PIP-II project at Fermilab. The innovative design is based on a structure, the strongback, which supports the coldmass from the bottom, stays at room temperature during operations, and can slide longitudinally with respect to the vacuum vessel. The Fermilab style cryomodule developed for the prototype Single Spoke Resonator Type 1 (pSSR1), the prototype High Beta 650 MHz (pHB650), and preproduction Single Spoke Resonator Type 2 (ppSSR2) cryomodules is the baseline of the present design. The focus of this contribution is on the results of calculations and finite element analyses performed to optimize the critical components of the cryomodule: vacuum vessel, strongback, thermal shield, and magnetic shield.

In early 2023 the assembly of the prototype HB650 cryomodule (pHB650 CM) was completed and cold tests started to evaluate its performance. The lessons learned from the design, assembly and preliminary cold tests of this cryomodule, and from the design of the SSR2 pre-production cryomodule played a fundamental role during the design optimization process of the production HB650 cryomodule (HB650 CM). Several workshops have been organized to share experiences and solve problems. This paper presents the main design changes from pHB650 to the HB650 production cryomodules and their impact on the heat loads.

Beamline components, such as superconducting radio frequency cavities and focusing lenses, need to be assembled together in a string while in a cleanroom environment. The present contribution identifies and characterizes materials for additive manufacturing that can be used in a cleanroom. The well known advantages of additive manufacturing processes would highly benefit the design and development of tooling needed for the mechanical support and alignment of string components. Cleanliness, mechanical properties, and leak tightness of the chosen materials are the main focus of this contribution, which also paves the way for the integration of such materials in cryomodule assemblies. Results reported here were obtained in the framework of the PIP-II project at Fermilab.

The PIP-II Project will receive fully assembled cryomodules from CEA and STFC-UKRI as in-kind contributions. Damage to these cryomodules during transport is understood to be a significant risk to the project, so an extensive testing and validation program is in process to mitigate this risk. The centerpiece of this effort is the eventual shipment from FNAL to STFC-UKRI and back of a prototype HB650 cryomodule with cold testing before and after shipment to verify no functionality changes from shipment. Most recently, a test shipment to the UK and back using a cryomodule analog was completed using realistic logistics, handling, instrumentation, and planning. The process of executing this test shipment, lessons learned, and plan moving forward will be presented here.

During the design stages of the PIP-II cryomodules, many analytical calculations and FEA have been performed on simpler geometry in order to estimate the heat loads and also to optimize the design. To better analyze the cryomodule cold tests, simulations have been performed with MATLAB to determine the temperature of the main components during cool down and to determine the heat loads of the cryomodule. These simulations have been applied to the High Beta 650 MHz prototype cryomodule design and compared to the cold tests performed on it.

A low particulate vacuum and purging system was developed to support PIP-II cryomodule string assembly. The overpressure can be controlled at a precision of 1 mbar above the atmospheric pressure regardless of the cavity or string assembly air volume. The system minimized the risk of uncontrolled nitrogen flow during the string assembly. Design features will be presented.

New SRF-based accelerator development at sites without long-term experience in SRF development is a major challenge. Especially in-house development of cryomodules is an almost impossible obstacle to overcome for small projects. To minimize such obstacles, turn-key SRF systems provided by industry can be of great importance. For the multiturn ERL MESA, which is currently under construction at Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, two turnkey cryomodules have been purchased from industry and successfully tested. The specifications of a design gradient of 12.5 MV/m in CW operation with an unloaded Q of 1.25*10¹⁰ at 1.8 K had to be met. Since the design of the modules had to be modified for high current CW operation, a close cooperation with the manufacturer was of great importance. By purchasing such a turn-key SRF system, the MESA project successfully established the SRF accelerator technology at the site within six years. This was achieved through close monitoring of the manufacturing process and close cooperation with the manufacturer. An overview of the experience with the successful technology transfer of a complete turn-key SRF system for small accelerators will be given.

To provide sufficient energy for CEBAF operation, cryomodules and components are being refurbished yearly as necessary. Copper plated fundamental power coupler waveguides are important components of the cryomodules. The integrity and quality of copper plating is critical to reduce the heat load from the waveguides into the He bath at 2.07 K. A search of copper plating resources is underway for plating or re-plating CEBAF-style waveguides. This effort ensures a continuous capability of copper plating on cryomodule components, especially on waveguides. To qualify plating vendors, the waveguide copper plating specifications were revisited, and a thorough plating evaluation process is being developed. The evaluation process ranges from coupon testing to sample waveguide qualification. Recent results are summarized and future work is planned.

The PIP-II Project will see international shipment of cryomodules from Europe to the United States, and as such, the shocks which can occur during shipment pose a risk to the internal components. Of particular concern is the coupler ceramic window and surrounding brazes, which can see relatively high stress during an excitation event. Since the antenna design is new, and because of the setback failure would create, a cyclic stress test was devised for the antenna. This paper presents the experimental methods, setup, and results of the test.

650 MHz fundamental power couplers were developed for PIP-II project to deliver RF power for low-beta and high-beta elliptical cavities. Few prototypes were built and tested and after some modification we built 8 pre-production couplers (with three spares for vacuum side) for ppHB650 cryomodule. All couplers were successfully tested in pulse mode (up to 100kW) and in CW mode (up to 50kW) in test stand at full reflection at 8 phases. In baseline configuration with DC bias we do not see any multipactoring activity after short processing. We also tested power processing without bias for uncoated and TiN coated ceramic window. Results of these studies presented in this paper. One of the coupler was assembled on LB650 cavity and tested at cryogenic environment in STC cryostat at ~30kW power with full reflection at different reflection phase. We also demonstrated good result from power processing without bias for warm and cold cavity. Six couplers were assembled on HB650 cavities in pre-production cryomodule. Test results from cryomodule qualification is discussing in this paper.

At KEK, cost reduction study for STF-type input power coupler used in the STF-2 accelerator has been attempted since FY2015. In FY2019, one coupler was fabricated by some cost-effective and non-conventional methods including different alumina-ceramic material, copper plating and TiN coating. In high power RF test at room temperature, this coupler achieved 1 MW at 900 µsec/5Hz, and 935 kW @1.65 msec/5Hz. After that, this coupler experienced 10 thermal cycle tests from room temperature to liquid nitrogen temperature without vacuum leakage. In this report, the detailed results will be presented.

Funding: Project supported by Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Major Project (Grant No.2017SHZDZX02).
The superconducting radio-frequency electron linear accelerator of the Shanghai HIgh repetition rate XFEL aNd Extreme light facility (SHINE) contains 610 1.3 GHz fundamental power couplers which are assembled in 77 superconducting cryomodules used for beam acceleration, and 16 3.9 GHz fundamental power couplers, which are assembled in two third harmonic superconducting cryomodules used for linearizing the longitudinal phase space. The first batch of 26 1.3 GHz coupler prototypes and two 3.9 GHz coupler prototypes have been fabricated from three domestic manufacturers for basic research. Several key manufacturing processes have been developed and qualified, including high residual resistivity ratio (RRR) copper plating, vacuum brazing of ceramic windows, electron beam welding and titanium nitride coating. All the 1.3 GHz coupler prototypes have been power conditioned with 14 kW travelling wave (TW) and 7 kW standing wave (SW) RF in continuous-wave (CW) mode. Even higher power levels have been demonstrated with 20 kW TW and 10 kW SW RF, which indicates their robustness. Both 3.9 GHz coupler prototypes have been power conditioned with 2.2 kW TW and 2 kW SW RF in CW mode.

Nitrogen-doped niobium SRF cavities are sensitive to trapped magnetic flux, which decreases the cavity intrinsic Q₀. Prior experimental results have shown that heat treatments to 900°C and higher can result in stronger flux expulsion during cooldown; the precise temperature required tends to vary by vendor lot/ingot of the niobium material used in the cavity cells. For LCLS-II-HE, to ensure sufficient flux expulsion in all cavities, we built and tested single-cell cavities to determine this required temperature for each vendor lot of niobium material to be used in cavity cells. In this report, we present the results of the single-cell flux expulsion testing and the Q₀ of the nine-cell cavities built using the characterized vendor lots. We discuss mixing material from different vendor lots, examine the lessons learned, and finally present an outlook on possible refinements to the single-cell technique.

Irène Joliot-Curie Laboratory (IJCLab) has been leading the development of spoke resonators in multiple interna- tional SRF projects, from fundamental R&D, prototyping, to series production. The European Spallation Source (ESS) superconducting linac is the first of its kind to put into op- eration the spoke resonators. After three prototype cavities, 29 ESS production cavities have been processed, tested, as- sembled into cryomodules at IJCLab, and then shipped to Uppsala for the site acceptance test. Seven prototypes for two other major projects, Multi-purpose hYbrid Research Reactor for High-tech Application (MYRRHA) and Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II), designed in collaboration with external institutions, have as well been processed and tested at IJCLab. A new challenge is to fully process series cavi- ties in industry, following the successful implementation of 1.3 GHz elliptical cavities in the other projects. This paper summarises main results obtained from fabrication to final testing, including frequency tuning strategy, performance, limitation in vertical cryostat, and identifies future direction of projects and R&D in the field of spoke cavities.

Thanks to improvements in the performance of both commercial cryocoolers and Nb₃Sn-coated superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities, it is now possible to design and build compact, SRF cryomodules without the need for liquid cryogenics. In addition, these systems offer robust, non-expert, turn-key operation, making SRF technology significantly more accessible for smaller-scale applications in fields such as industry, national security, medicine, environmental sustainability, etc. To fully realize these systems, many technical and operational challenges must be overcome. These include properly cooling the SRF cavity via thermal conduction and designing high-power (~ 100 kW continuous) RF couplers which dissipate minimal heat (~ 1 W) at 4.2 K. This presentation will discuss these challenges and the solutions which have been developed at Cornell University and elsewhere.

The superconducting driver Linac for the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is a heavy ion accelerator that accelerate ions to 200 MeV per nucleon. The Linac has 46 cryomodules that contain 324 superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities and 69 superconducting (SC) solenoid packages. For operation of all cryomodules with high efficiency and reliability, automation for SRF cavity and SC solenoid fast turn-on/off is essentially. Based on cryomodule commissioning results and expert experience, all manual cavity and solenoid turn-on/off procedures and steps have been replaced by automatic programs for FRIB linac operation. This allows the operators to turn the systems on and off without expert-level training. Automation reduces the risk of human error, speeds up beam recovery after user access to experimental areas, and increases beam availability. The cavity turn-on procedure makes sure that the cavity can operate at low field with expected read backs, ramps up the field, and makes sure that the RF amplitude and phase are stable. The design, implementation, and operating experience with automation will be presented.

The Linac Coherent Light Source II High Energy (LCLS-II-HE) Project at SLAC includes the construction of a low-emittance injector (LEI) and a superconducting quarter-wave resonator (QWR) at 185.7 MHz. Several alternatives to a superconducting radio frequency (SRF) QWR gun were considered for the LEI, including nor-mal-conducting RF guns evolved from the LCLS-II gun design. Compared to normal-conducting designs, the combination of an intrinsically outstanding vacuum environment (for cathode lifetime), and the potential for a larger ultimate performance envelope, led to the deci-sion to pursue development of the QWR-SRF gun. A prototype gun is currently being designed and fabricated at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michi-gan State University (MSU). This paper presents perfor-mance goals for the new gun design, an overview of the prototype development effort, status, and future plans including fabrication.
