In the high-energy section of the Project X Linac, acceleration of H^- ions takes place in superconducting cavities operating at 650 MHz. Two families of five-cell elliptical cavities are planned: β = 0.61 and β = 0.9. A specific feature of the Project X Linac is low beam loading, and thus, low bandwidth and higher sensitivity to microphonics. Efforts to optimize the mechanical design of the cavities to improve their mechanical stability in response to the helium bath pressure fluctuations will be presented. These efforts take into account constraints such as cost and ease of fabrication. Also discussed will be the overall design status of the cavities and their helium jackets.

The low-beta section of the linac being considered for Project X at Fermilab contains several styles of 325 MHz superconducting single spoke cavities and solenoid based focusing lenses, all operating at 2 K. Each type of cavity and focusing lens will eventually be incorporated into the design of cryomodules unique to various sections of the linac front end. This paper describes the design of a multiple-cavity and solenoid cryomodule being developed to test the function of each of the main cryomodule systems – cryogenic systems and instrumentation, cavity and lens positioning and alignment, conduction-cooled current leads, magnetic shielding, cold-to-warm beam tube transitions, interfaces to interconnecting equipment and adjacent modules, as well as evaluation of overall assembly procedures.

The continuous wave 3 GeV Project X Linac requires the development of two families of cavities and cryomodules at 325 and 650 MHz. The baseline design calls for three types of superconducting single-spoke resonators at 325 MHz having betas of 0.11, 0.22, and 0.42 and two types of superconducting five-cell elliptical cavities having betas of 0.61 and 0.9. These cavities shall accelerate a 1 mA H⁻ beam initially and must support eventual operation at 4 mA. The electromagnetic and mechanical designs of the cavities are in progress and acquisition of prototypes is planned. The heat load to the cryogenic system is up to 25 W per cavity in the 650 MHz section, thus segmentation of the cryogenic system is a major issue in the cryomodule design. Designs for the two families of cryomodules are underway.

The proposed multi-MW Project X facility at Fermilab will employ cavities with bandwidths as narrow as 20 Hz. This combination of high RF power with narrow bandwidths combined requires careful attention to detuning control if these cavities are to be operated successfully. Detuning control for Projects X will require a coordinated effort between the groups responsible for various machine subsystems. Considerable progress in this area has been made over the past year.
