	In order to accelerate the proposed beam intensity for Project-X, a new RF system for Main Injector (MI) will be required. A new 53 MHz first harmonic RF cavity that meets the MI requirements for Project-X has been designed. In order to reduce the peak longitudinal beam density a 10⁶ MHz second harmonic RF system is also needed. The first harmonic RF cavity design is a quarter wave coaxial resonator with a single accelerating gap and a perpendicular biased ferrite tuner. The second harmonic RF cavity baseline design is similar to the fundamental one and scaled down from it.
