	A first electropolished 201-MHz RF cavity for the international Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) has been assembled inside a special vacuum vessel and installed at the Fermilab's MuCool Test Area (MTA). The cavity and the MTA hall have been equipped with numerous instrumentation to characterize cavity operation. The cavity has been commissioned to run at 14 MV/m gradient with no external magnetic field; it is also being commissioned in presence of fringe field of a multi-Tesla superconducting solenoid magnet, the condition in which cavity modules will be operated in the MICE cooling channel. The assembly, installation and operation of the Single-Cavity Module gave valuable experience for operation of full-size modules at MICE.

	The Helical Cooling Channel scheme envisioned for a Muon Collider or Neutrino Factory requires high pressure gas filled radio frequency cavities to operate in superconducting magnets. One method to shrink the radii of the cavities is to load them with a dielectric material. The dielectric constant, loss tangent, and dielectric strength are important in determining the most suitable material. Low powered RF measurements of the dielectric constant and loss tangent were taken for multiple purities of alumina and magnesium calcium titanate, as well as cordierite, forsterite, and aluminum nitride. Measurements of alumina were consistent with previously reported results. The results were used to design an insert for a high powered RF test that included sending beam through the cavity.

MOAD2	RF Breakdown of 805 MHz Cavities in Strong Magnetic Fields	53

	Ionization cooling of intense muon beams requires the operation of high-gradient, normal-conducting RF structures in the presence of strong magnetic fields. We have measured the breakdown rate in several RF cavities operating at several frequencies. Cavities operating within solenoidal magnetic fields B > 0.25 T show an increased RF breakdown rate at lower gradients compared with similar operation when B = 0 T. Ultimately, this breakdown behavior limits the maximum safe operating gradient of the cavity. Beyond ionization cooling, this issue affects the design of photoinjectors and klystrons, among other applications. We have built an 805 MHz pillbox-type RF cavity to serve as an experimental testbed for this phenomenon. This cavity is designed to study the problem of RF breakdown in strong magnetic fields using various cavity materials and surface treatments, and with precise control over sources of systematic error. We present results from tests in which the cavity was run with all copper surfaces in a variety of magnetic fields.

WEPWA067	Acoustic Breakdown Localization in RF Cavities	2658
	P.G. Lane, P. Snopok, Y. Torun Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago, Illlinois, USA E. Behnke, I.Y. Levine Indiana University South Bend, South Bend, USA D.W. Peterson Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA
	Funding: US Department of Energy Current designs for muon cooling channels require high-gradient RF cavities to be placed in solenoidal magnetic fields in order to contain muons with large transverse emittances. It has been found that doing so reduces the threshold at which RF cavity breakdown occurs. To aid the effort to study RF cavity breakdown in magnetic fields it would be helpful to have a diagnostic tool which can detect breakdown and localize the source of the breakdown inside the cavity. We report here on acoustic simulations and comparisons with experimental acoustic data of breakdown from several RF cavities. Included in this analysis are our most recent results from attempting to localize breakdown using these data.

	RF Breakdown in strong magnetic fields has a negative impact on a cavity performance. The MuCool Test Area at Fermilab has unique capabilities that that allow us to study the effects of static magnetic field on RF cavity operation. We have tested an 805 MHz pillbox-like cavity in external magnetic fields up to 5T. Results confirm our basic model of breakdown in strong magnetic fields. We have measured maximum achievable surface gradient dependence on external static magnetic field. Damage inspection of cavity walls revealed a unique observed breakdown pattern. We present the analysis of breakdown damage distribution and propose the hypothesis to explain certain features of this distribution

WEPTY054	Grid Window Tests on an 805-MHz Pillbox Cavity	3393
	Y. Torun Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago, Illlinois, USA A. Moretti Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA
	Funding: Supported by the US Department of Energy Office of Science through the Muon Accelerator Program. Muon ionization cooling channel designs use pillbox shaped RF cavities for improved power efficiency and fine control over phasing of individual cavities. For minimum scattering of the muon beam, the ends should be made out of a small thickness of high radiation length material. Good electrical and thermal conductivity are required to reduce power dissipation and remove the heat efficiently. Thin curved beryllium windows with TiN coating have been used successfully in the past. We have built an alternative window set consisting of grids of tubes and tested these on a pillbox cavity previously used with both thin Be and thick Cu windows. The cavity was operated with a pair of grids as well as a single grid against a flat endplate.
