Fermilab is currently building the Project X Injector experiment (PXIE). PXIE linac will accelerate 1 mA H⁻ beam up to 30 MeV and serve as a testbed for validation of Project X concepts and mitigation of technical risks. A cryomodule of eight superconducting RF Single Spoke Resonators of type 1 (SSR1) cavities operating at 325 MHz is an integral part of PXIE. Ten SSR1 cavities were manufactured in industry and delivered to Fermilab. In this paper we discuss surface processing and tests of bare SSR1 cavities at the Fermilab Vertical Test Stand (VTS). We report on the measured performance parameters of nine cavities achieved during tests.

Project X is a high intensity proton facility being developed to support a world-leading program of Intensity Frontier physics over the next two decades at Fermilab. The proposed facility is based on the SRF technology and consists of two linacs: CW linac to accelerate beam from 2.1 MeV to 3 GeV and pulsed linac accelerate 5% of the beam up to 8 GeV. In a CW linac five families of SC cavities are used: half-wave resonators (162.5 MHz); single-spoke cavities: SSR1 and SSR2 (325 MHz) and elliptical 5-cell β=0.6 and β=0.9 cavities (650 MHz). Pulsed 3-8 GeV linac linac are based on 9-cell 1.3 GHz cavities. In the paper the basic requirements and the status of development of SC accelerating cavities, auxiliaries (couplers, tuners, etc.) and cryomodules are presented as well as technology challenges caused by their specifics.

The low beam current for CW operation of the Project X requires cavities to be mechanically optimized to operate at a high loaded Q and thus, low bandwidth with higher sensitivity to microphonics. The essential source of microphonics detuning is fluctuations in the helium pressure df/dp. Last year’s several methods for reducing df/dp has been proposed. One of the other possible sources of RF frequency instability is mechanical resonances. The cavity could be driven out of operating frequency by the mechanical deformations due to vibrations caused by external factors. In this paper we present the COMSOL multiphysics algorithm developed for evaluation of operating frequency shift due to mechanical resonances in SC cavities. We discuss the results of simulations for 5-cell elliptical 650 MHz β=0.9 cavities. The comparison of COMSOL simulations and measurements of ILC type cavities in Horizontal Test Stand at Fermilab is presented.

Funding: Operated by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. De-AC02-07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy.
Two types of single spoke resonators will be utilized for beam-acceleration in the low energy part of the Project X linac. SSR1 and SSR2 operate at 325 MHz and at an optimal beta of 0.22 and 0.51 respectively. After the initial phase of prototyping, a production run of 10 SSR1 resonators was recently completed in US industry. The qualification of this group of resonators in the Fermilab VTS is proceeding successfully and nearly complete. The first qualified resonator has been outfitted with a Stainless Steel helium vessel. Preliminary test results for the first jacketed SSR1 are presented. The first RF power couplers were ordered, the design of the double-lever tuning mechanism is almost complete.
