The RF system of Argonne Wakefield Accelerator (AWA) facility has grown over the years from one RF power station into 4 RF power stations. The demand for RF power keeps growing as the capability of AWA continues to grow. Now the 5th RF station is needed to fulfill the RF power needs of AWA facility. Some details regarding the construction and commissioning of the 5th RF station of AWA facility are documented in this paper.

Diamond Field Emitter Array (DFEA) cathodes are arbitrarily shaped arrays of sharp (~50 nm tip size) nano-diamond pyramids with bases on the order of 3 to 25 microns and pitches 5 microns and greater. These cathodes have demonstrated very high bunch charge in tests at the L-band RF gun at the Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) Advanced Cathode Test Stand (ACTS). Intrinsically shaped electron beams have a variety of applications, but primarily to achieve high transformer ratios for Dielectric Wakefield Accelerators (DWA) when used in conjunction with Emittance Exchange (EEX) systems. Here we will present results from a number of recent cathode tests including bunch charge and YAG images. We have demonstrated shaped beam transport down the 2.54-meter beamline. In addition we will present emission simulations that demonstrate shielding effects for this geometry.

  RF breakdown is one of the major limitations to achieve high gradient acceleration for future structure-based normal conducting linear colliders. Previous statistic research shows that the breakdown rate is proportional to Ea30 * tp5, which indicates that the accelerating gradient Ea could be improved by using shorter RF pulses (tp). An X-band 11.7~GHz metallic single-cell structure has been designed for RF breakdown study up to 273~MV/m using short pulses (~3ns) generated by a 400~MW power extractor at Argonne Wakefield Accelerator (AWA) facility. The structure has also been scaled to 11.424~GHz for the long pulse (100-1500~ns) breakdown study driven by a klystron and a pulse compressor at Tsinghua X-band High Power Test-stand (TPoT-X), with the gradient up to 246~MV/m with 200~MW input power.

  The short-pulse two-beam acceleration approach is a promising candidate to meet the cost and luminosity requirements for future linear colliders. Dielectric-loaded structure has been intensely investigated for this approach because of its low fabrication cost, low RF loss, and potential to withstand GV/m gradient. An X-band 11.7~GHz dielectric-loaded accelerator (DLA) has been designed for high power test with short RF pulses (3~ns) generated from a power extractor driven by high charge bunches at Argonne Wakefield Accelerator (AWA) facility. The gradient is expected to be over 100~MV/m with the maximum input power of 400~MW.

Beam position monitor (BPM) is widely used in accelerator facilities worldwide. It is a device which is capable of providing, non-destructively, accurate beam centroid and charge information of a passing charged beam. A typical BPM system contains customized hardware and specialized processing electronics. The cost is often too high for small facilities to afford them. As a small facility, Argonne Wakefield Accelerator (AWA) decided to develop a solution with high cost-efficiency to fit in its budget. Some details about the development are presented in this paper.
