  The Project-X, a multi-MW proton source based on superconducting linac, is under development at Fermilab. The front end of the linac contains a CW room temperature MEBT section which comprises ion source, RFQ and high-bandwidth bunch selective chopper. The length of the chopper exceeds 10 m, so four re-bunching cavities are used to support the beam longitudinal dynamics. The RF and mechanical designs of the re-bunching cavity including stress and thermal analysis are reported.
