	The BNL SRF gun cavity was operated well at CW mode up to 2 MV. However, the performance suffered due to multipacting in the quarter-wavelength choke-joint. A new multipacting-free cathode stalk was designed and will be conditioned. This paper will describes RF and thermal design of new cathode stalk and conditioning results.

WEPWI015	BNL 56 MHz HOM Damper Prototype Fabrication at JLab	3521

	A prototype Higher-Order Mode (HOM) Damper was fabricated at JLab for the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider’s (RHIC) 56 MHz cavity at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). Primarily constructed from high RRR Niobium and Sapphire, the coaxial damper presented significant challenges in electron-beam welding (EBW), brazing and machining via acid etching. The results of the prototype operation brought about changes in the damper design, due to overheating braze alloys and possible multi-pacting. Five production HOM dampers are currently being fabricated at JLab. This paper outlines the challenges faced in the fabrication process, and the solutions put in place.

THPF033	The First Operation of 56 MHz SRF Cavity in RHIC	3767

	Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. Department of Energy. A 56 MHz superconducting RF cavity has been designed, fabricated and installed in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The cavity operated at 4.4 K with a “quiet helium source” to isolate the cavity from environmental acoustic noise. The cavity is a beam driven quarter wave resonator. It is detuned and damped during injection and acceleration cycles and is brought to operation only at store energy. For a first test operation, the cavity voltage was stabilized at 300 kV with full beam current. Within both Au + Au and asymmetrical Au + He3 collisions, luminosity improvement was detected from direct measurement, and the hourglass effect was reduced. One higher order mode (HOM) coupler was installed on the cavity. We report in this paper on our measurement of a broadband HOM spectrum excited by the Au beam.

The BNL SRF gun cavity was operated well at CW mode up to 2 MV. However, the performance suffered due to multipacting in the quarter-wavelength choke-joint. A new multipacting-free cathode stalk was designed and will be conditioned. This paper will describes RF and thermal design of new cathode stalk and conditioning results.
