  The e-Linac project at TRIUMF, now funded, is specified to accelerate 10mA of electrons to 50MeV using 1.3GHz multi-cell superconducting cavities. The linac consists of three cryomodules; an injector cryomodule with one cavity and two accelerating modules with two cavities each. The injector module is being designed and constructed in collaboration with VECC in Kolkata. The design utilizes a unique box cryomodule with a top-loading cold mass. A 4K phase separator, 2K-4K heat exchanger and Joule-Thompson valve are installed within each module to produce 2K liquid. The design and status of the development will be presented.

  In July 2010 the Advanced Rare Isotope Laboratory became a funded project. In collaboration with its Canadian member universities TRIUMF was awarded federal and provincial government funds for the construction of a new target building, a connecting tunnel, and an electron linear accelerator in support of its expanding rare isotope program that serves nuclear structure and astrophysics studies as well as materials and medical science. TRIUMF has embarked on the design of a 300 keV thermionic gun, a 10 MeV Injector cryomodule (ICM) and two 20 MeV Accelerator cryomodules, and beam transfer lines. Both the ICM and RF-modulated e-gun are being fast tracked; the former in collaboration with the VECC in Kolkata, India. The c.w. linac is based on super-conducting radiofrequency technology at 1.3 GHz. This paper gives an overview of the facility and accelerator design progress including beam dynamics and diagnostics, cryomodules and cryogenics, high power RF, and machine layout including beam lines.
