The Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) 5-cell, 703 MHz superconducting RF accelerating cavity has been installed in the high-current energy recovery linac (ERL) experiment. This experiment will function as a proving ground for the development of high-current machines in general and is particularly targeted at beam development for an electron-ion collider (eRHIC). The cavity performed well in vertical tests, demonstrating gradients of 20 MV/m and a Q0 of 10¹0. Here we will present its performance in the horizontal tests, and discuss technical issues involved in its implementation in the ERL.

The 703MHz superconducting gun will have 2 fundamental power couplers (FPCs). Each FPC will deliver up to 500kW of RF power. In order to prepare the couplers for high power RF service and process multipacting, the FPCs should be conditioned before they are installed in the gun. A conditioning cart based test stand, which includes a vacuum pumping system, controllable bake-out system, diagnostics, interlocks and data log system has been designed, constructed and commissioned by collaboration of BNL and AES. This paper presents FPC conditioning cart systems and summarizes the conditioning process and results.

	An ampere-class 20 MeV superconducting energy recovery linac (ERL) is under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) for testing of concepts relevant for high-energy coherent electron cooling and electron-ion colliders. One of the goals is to demonstrate an electron beam with high charge per bunch (~5 nC) and low normalized emittance (~5 mm-mrad) at an energy of 20 MeV. A flexible lattice for the ERL loop provides a test bed for investigating issues of transverse and longitudinal instabilities and diagnostics for CW beam. A superconducting 703 MHz RF photo-injector is considered as an electron source for such a facility. We will start with a straight pass (gun/cavity/beam stop) test for gun performance studies. Later, we will install and test a novel injection line concept for emittance preservation in a lower-energy merger. Here we present the status and our plans for construction and commissioning of this facility.
