	Funding: ORNL/SNS is managed by UT-Battelle, LLC, for the U.S. Department of Energy under contract DE-AC05-00OR22725. The Oak Ridge Spallation Neutron Source accumulator ring presently operates at a beam power of about 1 MW and a beam energy of 925 MeV. A power upgrade is planned to increase the beam energy to 1.3 GeV. For the accumulator ring this mostly involves modifications to the injection and extraction sections. A variety of modifications to the existing injection section were necessary to achieve 1 MW, and the tools developed and the lessons learned from this work are now being applied to the design of the new injection section. This paper will discuss the tools and the lessons learned, and also present the design and status of the upgrades to the accumulator ring.

	Funding: ORNL is managed by UT-Battelle, LLC, under contract DE-AC05-00OR22725 for the U.S. Department of Energy. We study the accelerating properties of a new multicell cavity structure with irises forming a rectangular aperture between the cavity cells. We are interested in this structure because, from a mechanical point of view, the rectangular iris may make possible a much improved structure quality using a hydroforming manufacturing process. RF analysis shows that the rectangular iris shape provides asymmetric transverse focusing per half RF period. If the horizontal and vertical rectangular irises are interleaved, the net transverse focusing can be increased. The present studies of the acceleration and transport properties of these cavities are conducted by tracking particles through time-dependent 3D cavity fields from CST MWS using the ORBIT Code.

	A multi-cell cavity structure with rectangular coupling aperture between cavity cells is proposed. This investigation is to study the RF properties of such structure that may provide high yield in hydroforming. In mechanical point of view, the rectangular aperture iris may provide much improved structure quality in hydroforming since it can help to reduce the stress incurring within the sheet metal with improved structural malleability. The necking procedure can be easier because of greater perimeter in the iris geometry. Peak electric and magnetic fields per accelerating gradient may increase however, compared to traditional TESLA type elliptical cavity structure. The rectangular iris shape provides asymmetric transverse focusing per half RF period. If the horizontal and vertical rectangular irises are interleaved, the net transverse focusing may be achieved. 3D simulations with CST MWS have been carried out to analyze EM field properties and the cavity parameters.
