  A search for HOMs in Cornell’s ERL main linac cavity installed in a Horizontal Test Cryomodule (HTC) has been carried out using a bunch charge modulation method, as part of the effort towards building an Energy Recovery Linac (ERL). The beam-based HOM measurements offer the significant advantage of being able to detect trapped modes invisible to both the RF pickup probes and HOM damping loads, and allow for measuring the R/Q of the modes. For each HOM detected during the search, measurements were taken to determine its nature (monopole, dipole, etc.), frequency, loaded quality factor and shunt impedance. A selection of the most notable modes found is presented, compared to 3D HOM simulations, and their potential impact on the BBU current of the future Cornell ERL is discussed.

  A sample-host TE-mode cavity developed at Cornell for the purposes of studying novel superconducting materials has undergone further testing using a niobium sample plate. In initial testing the peak field achieved on the sample plate was (45 ± 4.5) mT, although this was limited by the amount of input power available. New tests have been performed using both an improved RF power system and a temperature mapping system for precision measurements of surface resistance as a function of location on the sample plate. Results of the most recent test, in which the cavity achieved a peak sample plate field of (81 ± 4) mT using a high-RRR niobium sample plate, are presented and future work on the cavity is discussed.
