We present, in this paper, the high power test result and the beam commissioning status of a Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) accelerator for the Compact Pulsed Hadron Source (CPHS) at Tsinghua University. The 3-meter-long RFQ is designed to deliver 3 MeV protons to the downstream High Energy Beam Transport (HEBT) with the peak current of 50 mA, pulse length of 0.5 ms and beam duty factor of 2.5%. The RFQ has been designed, manufactured, and installed at Tsinghua University. High-vacuum test of the RFQ has been carried out carefully and the cooling system has been mounted. At the beginning of 2013, the high power RF test has been performed and the first 3 MeV proton beam is obtained.

The beam dynamics and structure design of a ramped-voltage CW RFQ (Radio Frequency Quadrupole) accelerator for a NSFC (National Natural Science Foundation of China) Project at Tsinghua University is presented in this paper. The ramped-voltage RFQ, in which the inter-vane voltage increases from the low-energy end to the high-energy end, is compact and efficient. The RFQ, with the operating frequency of 325 MHz, will capture a 50 mA/CW, 50 keV proton beam from the RF source and accelerate it to 3 MeV, an energy suitable for chopping and injecting the beam in a conventional Drift Tube Linac. After optimization, the total length is as short as 2.9 m and the transmission rate is above 97%. The design of RFQ structure including the undercuts will also be shown.

  CPHS (Compact Pulsed Hadron Source) project was initiated in Tsinghua University at 2009. It consists of a 13 MeV proton Linac (RFQ+DTL), a neutron target station and some neutron stations. The construction of 3 MeV Linac (RFQ only) and target station will be finished at the end of 2012. And initial commissioning will be started at the early of year 2013. The progress and results of early commissioning will be presented at this paper. Then we will report the next plan also.
