Funding: Operated by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy. Project X is based on a 3 GeV CW superconducting linac and is currently in the R&D phase awaiting CD-0 approval. The low-energy section of the Project X H− linac (starting at 2.5 MeV) includes three types of super-conducting single spoke cavities operating at 325 MHz. The first three cryomodules will each house 7 SSR0 cavities at β = 0.11. The following two cryomodules will each contain 10 SSR1 cavities each at β = 0.21. The last four cryomodules will contain 11 SSR2 cavities each at β = 0.4. Single spoke cavities were selected for the linac in virtue of their higher r/Q values compared to standard Half Wave Resonator. Quarter Wave Resonators were not considered for such a high frequency. In this paper we present the decisions and analyses that lead to the final design of SSR0. Electro-magnetic and mechanical finite element analyses were performed with the purpose of optimizing the electro-magnetic design, minimizing frequency shifts due to helium bath pressure fluctuations and providing a pressure rating for the resonators that allow their use in the cryomodules. |
