Funding: This work is supported by the Department of Defense High Energy Laser Joint Technology Office through the Office of Naval Research. We present an update on the 2.1 GHz superconducting rf (SRF) photonic band gap (PBG) resonator experiment in Los Alamos. The new SRF PBG cell was designed with the particular emphasis on changing the shape of PBG rods to reduce the peak magnetic fields and at the same time to preserve its effectiveness for suppression of the higher order modes (HOMs). The new PBG cells have great potential for outcoupling long-range wakefields in SRF accelerator structures without affecting the fundamental accelerating mode. Using PBG structures in superconducting particle accelerators will allow operation at higher frequencies and moving forward to significantly higher beam luminosities thus leading towards a completely new generation of colliders for high energy physics. Here we report the results of our efforts to fabricate 2.1 GHz PBG cells with elliptical rods and to test them with high power in a liquid helium bath at the temperature of 2 Kelvin. The high gradient performance of the cells will be evaluated and the results will be compared to electromagnetic and thermal simulations. |

THPAC35 | Multipacting Study of 112 MHz SRF Electron Gun | 1214 |

Funding: Work is supported at BNL by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. DOE. The work at Stony Brook is supported by the US DOE under grant DE-SC0005713. The 112 MHz quarter wave superconducting electron gun was designed and built as an injector for the coherent electron cooling experiment. Besides that, the gun is suitable for testing various types of photocathodes thanks to its specially designed cathode holder. In recent RF tests of the gun at 4 K, the accelerating voltage reached 0.9 MV CW and more than 1 MV in pulsed mode. During this testing, we observed several multipacting barriers at low electromagnetic field levels. Since the final setup of the gun will be different from the cool down test configuration, we want to understand the exact location of the multipacting sites. We used Track3P to simulate multipacting. The results show several resonant trajectories that might be responsible for the observed barriers, but fortunately no strong multipacting barriers have been found in the cavity. |

THPHO06 | SRF and RF Systems for CeC PoP Experiment | 1310 |
|

Funding: Work is supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the US DOE. Efforts to experimentally prove a concept of the coherent electron cooling are underway at BNL. A short 22-MeV linac will provide high charge, low repetition rate beam to cool a single ion bunch in RHIC. The linac will consist of a 112 MHz SRF gun, two 500 MHz normal conducting bunching cavities and a 704 MHz five-cell accelerating SRF cavity. The paper describes the SRF and RF systems, the linac layout, and discusses the project status, first test results and schedule. |
