	Funding: Supported in part by DOE STTR grant DE-FG02-08ER86350 Operating a high gradient radio frequency cavity embedded in a strong magnetic field is an essential requirement for muon beam cooling. However, a magnetic field influences the maximum RF gradient due to focusing of dark current in the RF cavity. This problem is suppressed by filling the RF cavity with dense hydrogen gas. As the next step, we plan to explore the beam loading effect in the high pressure cavity by using a 400 MeV kinetic energy proton beam in the MuCool Test Area at Fermilab. We discuss the experimental setup and instrumentation.

	Funding: Supported in part by SBIR Grant DE-SC0005445 A new generation of large-area, low cost time-of-flight detectors with time resolutions ≤ 10 ps and space resolutions ≤ 1 mm is being developed for use in nuclear and particle physics experiments, as well as for medical and industrial applications. Such detectors can serve as the basis for measuring momenta without requiring measurement of curvature in magnetic fields. Factors affecting measurement accuracy and simulation results are presented.
