WEPAC25 | New Helium Vessel and Lever Tuner Designs for the 650 MHz Cavities for Project X | 841 |
|
||
The design of 5-cell elliptical 650 MHz β=0.9 cavities to accelerate H− beam of 1 mA average current in the range 467-3000 MeV for the Project X Linac is currently under development at Fermilab. A new design of the Helium Vessel (HV) was developed for these cavities with the main goal of optimizing the frequency sensitivity df/dP by keeping the cavity stiffness reasonably small. We also present a design of the new lever tuner system. The HV in the new design is equipped with the tuner located at the end of the cavity instead of the initially proposed blade tuner located in the middle. We will present mechanical design results and ANSYS analyses for both the slow and fast tuners. | ||
WEPAC29 | CM2, Second 1.3GHz Cryomodule Fabrication at Fermilab | 844 |
|

Funding: US Department of Energy CM2 is the second 1.3GHz Cryomodule assembled at the Cryomodule Assembly Facility (CAF) in Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The string has a doublet magnet, beam position monitor and eight cavities. All the cavities are qualified at 35 MV / m gradient at the Horizontal Test Facility before assembly. The dressed cavities were outfitted with magnetic shielding, blade tuner, and the cold mass was assembled based on the Tesla TTF Type III+ cryomodule design. CM2 is currently being installed into the test stand in NML where it will be cooled down and high power tested. CM2 will also be the first cryomodule that an electron beam will be put through at the NML facility. This will be a proof of principle for the planned Advanced Superconducting Test Accelerator (ASTA) facility at NML. This paper describes the assembly steps, the quality assurance methods and the challenges that we experienced during assembly and qualification steps at CAF. De |
