Funding: Work is supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the US DOE. A 5-cell SRF cavity operating at 704 MHz will be used for Coherent Electron Cooling Proof of Principle (CeC PoP) system under development for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The CeC PoP experiment will demonstrate the ability of relativistic electrons to cool a single bunch of heavy ions in RHIC. The cavity will accelerate 2 MeV electrons from a 112 MHz SRF gun up 22 MeV. Novel mechanical designs, including the super fluid heat exchanger, helium vessel, vacuum vessel, tuner mechanism, and FPC are presented. Structural and modal analysis, using ANSYS were performed to confirm the cavity chamber and He vessel structural stability and to calculate the tuning sensitivity of the cavity. This paper provides an overview of the design, the project status and schedule of the 704 MHz 5-cell SRF for CeC PoP experiment. |
