  A prototype half-wave-resonator (HWR) with frequency 162.5MHz and geometrical \beta=0.12 for the RAON project is currently undergoing testing at Cornell University. Detailed vertical performance testing includes (1) test of the bare cavity without the helium tank; (2) test of the dressed cavity with helium tank. In this paper, we report on the development of the test infrastructure, test results, and performance data analysis.

  The half-wave-resonators (HWR) for the RAON pro-ject require a slow frequency tuner that can provide at least 80 kHz tuning range. Cornell University is currently in the process of designing, prototyping, and testing this HWR tuner. In this paper, we present the tuner design, prototype fabrication, and first test results.

The Cornell BNL ERL Test Accelerator (CBETA) incorporates two SRF linacs; one for its injector and another for the energy recovery loop. Microphonics in both the cryomodules play a crucial role in determining the energy stability of the electron beam in high current operation. We have measured vibrations and frequency detuning of the SRF cavities and determined that the cryogenic system is the major source of microphonics in both cryomodules. In this paper we discuss these measurements and demonstrate an Active Microphonics Compensation system implemented using fast piezo-electric tuners which we incorporated in our Low Level RF control system to be used in routine operation.

Current state-of-the-art Niobium superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) accelerator cavities have reached surface magnetic field close to the theoretical maximum set by the superheating field. Further increasing accelerating gradients will require new superconducting materials for accelerator cavities that can support higher surface magnetic fields. This necessitates measuring the quench fields of new materials in high power RF fields. In this paper, we present designs and simulations of a sample host cavity. The cavity design is optimized to maximize the surface magnetic field achieved on the sample.

Cornell's Lab of Accelerator-based Sciences and Education (CLASSE) and the Collider Accelerator Department (BNL-CAD) are developing the first SRF multi-turn energy recovery linac with Non-Scaling Fixed Field Alternating Gradient (NS-FFAG) racetrack. The existing injector and superconducting linac at Cornell University are installed together with a single NS-FFAG arcs and straight section at the opposite side of the the linac to form an Electron Energy Recovery (ERL) system. Electron beam from the 6 MeV injector is injected into the 36 MeV superconducting linac, and accelerated by four successive passes: from 42 MeV up to 150 MeV using the same NS-FFAG structure made of permanent magnets. After the maximum energy of 150 MeV is reached, the electron beam is brought back to the linac with opposite Radio Frequency (RF) phase. Energy is recovered and reduced to the initial value of 6 MeV with 4 additional passes. There are many novelties: a single NS-FFAG structure, made of permanent magnets, brings electrons with four different energies back to the linac. A new adiabatic NS-FFAG arc-to-straight section merges 4 separated orbits into a single orbit in the straight section.

  The main linac cryomodule (MLC) prototype is a key component for the Cornell-BNL ERL Test Accelerator (CBETA) project, which is a 4-turn FFAG ERL under construction at Cornell University. This novel cryomodule is the first SRF module ever to be fully optimized simul-taneously for high efficient SRF cavity operation and for supporting very high CW beam currents. Initial MLC testing has demonstrated that cavity performance and HOMs damping meet specification values. Recent, addi-tional tests have focused on RF field stability, and cavity microphonics. In this paper, we summarize the perfor-mance of this novel ERL cryomodule and evaluate its beam capabilities based on the measured performance.
