SSR1 is a family of single spoke resonators to be used in Project X at Fermi National Laboratory. These cavities operate in CW regime having nominal frequency of 325 MHz and optimal beta of 0.22. SSR1 cavities will accelerate H⁻ ions after the Half Wave Resonator (HWR) section from 9 MeV to 32 MeV. In the near future this cavity will be used in Project X Injector Experiment (PXIE), which contains the ion source, the LEBT, the MEBT, the RFQ of Project X, and a cryogenic temperature section, having one HWR and one SSR1 cryomodule. SSR1 cavities have been built and tested at FNAL, the preparation of these resonators includes RF tuning which is the main focus of this paper. The frequency of the cavity is carefully chosen prior to the vertical test, and it is adjusted before welding the helium vessel to obtain 325 MHz nominal frequency for the dressed cavity in operating conditions. Several SSR1 cavities have been tuned at FNAL, the procedure, the hardware and the data are presented.

Accelerating cavities based on coaxial resonators, half wave and spoke resonators for example, do not have azimuthal symmetry. This lack of symmetry introduces a transverse field perturbation which affects the beam dynamic, since the particles traveling through the structure are crossing two accelerating gaps separated by the inner electrode. The field asymmetry induces an asymmetric transverse momentum gain which, once expanded in multipoles, appears to be due to a quadrupole perturbation. Depending on the cavity geometry and particle velocity, the influence of electric and magnetic fields may vary quite significantly. A way of having symmetric transverse fields in spoke resonators consists in modifying the inner electrode from a pole to an X or Y shape. The application of these changes symmetrizes both electric and magnetic fields and reduces the multipoles amplitudes to negligible values. This paper presents the study aimed to reduce the multi-poles amplitudes of SSR2 cavity for Project X; the presented procedure, in general, is valid for any spoke cavity.

SSR2 is the second family of single spoke resonator under development at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL). These cavities will be placed in Project X front-end after SSR1 spoke resonators, which have already been built and tested and FNAL. Spoke cavities are affected by multipacting and the nature of their 3D geometry does not allow simulating the multipactor process using 2D tools. 3D tracking simulations, of electrons inside the cavity volume, have been carried out using CST Particle Studio. Different Secondary Emission Coefficients have been applied to the cavity walls in order to understand how strongly the multipacting depends on material properties. The power levels used in simulations cover the whole operating gradient range of SSR2 cavity. Results of these simulations are compared to the one given by SSR1 model, which demonstrated good agreement with experimental data. The purposes of this paper are to present the results gotten from the tracking solver, to give a prediction of what will be the multipacting scenario for SSR2 cavity and if there will be any dangerous zone for operation.

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.

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

Fermilab is in the process of constructing a proton linac to accelerate a 1 mA CW beam up to 30 MeV to serve as a test beam for the Project X Injector Experiment (PXIE). The major goals of PXIE are the validation of the Project X concept and mitigation of technical risks. The SSR1 cryomodule comprises the last portion of PXIE and contains 8 SSR1 cavities operating at 325 MHz with an optimal beta of 0.22. In this paper we present the lessons learned from the completion of the first cavity including the welding operations necessary to install the Nb-SST transition ring and the SST helium jacket. The results of various tests on the jacketed resonator are also presented.

Project X is a proposed proton accelerator complex intended to support Fermilab’s role in intensity frontier research over the next several decades. It will replace the existing 40-year old Fermilab injector complex and add powerful new capabilities to support a large number of experiments in the energy range from 1 to 120 GeV. Fermilab is planning a program of research and development aimed at testing of critical components. This program, known as the Project X Injector Experiment (PXIE), is being undertaken as a major element of the ongoing Project X R&D program. PXIE contains two superconducting cavity cryomodules, one utilizing half-wave resonators (HWR), and the other, single spoke resonators (SSR). The first SSR cryomodule, known as SSR1 contains eight cavities and four solenoids in the following order: C–SC–CS–CC–SC–CS–C, as well as focusing and steering magnet elements. This paper describes the design of the SSR1 cryomodule and includes discussions of the system interfaces, vacuum vessel, magnetic and thermal shields, insulating and support systems, cavities, tuners, input couplers, focusing elements, and current leads.
