At the Institute for Applied Physics (IAP), University of Frankfurt, a s.c. 325 MHz CH-Cavity is under development for future beam tests at GSI UNILAC, Darmstadt. The cavity with 7 accelerating cells has a geometrical beta of 0.15 corresponding to 11.4 AMeV. The design gradient is 5 MV/m. The geometry of this resonator was optimized with respect to a compact design, low peak fields, surface processing, power coupling and tuning. Furthermore a new tuning system based on bellow tuners inside the resonator will control the frequency during operation. After rf tests in Frankfurt the cavity will be tested with a 10 mA, 11.4 AMeV beam delivered by the GSI UNILAC. In this paper rf simulations, multipacting analysis as well as thermal calculations will be presented.

The superconducting CH-structure (Crossbar-H-mode) is a multi-cell drift tube cavity for the low and medium energy range operated in the H21-mode, which has been developed at the Institute for Applied Physics (IAP) of Frankfurt University. With respect to different high power applications two types of superconducting CH-structures (f = 325 MHz, β = 0.16, seven cells and f = 217 MHz, β = 0.059, 15 cells) are presently under construction and accordingly under development. The structural mechanical simulation is a very important aspect of the cavity design. Furthermore, several simulations with ANSYS Workbench have been performed to predict the deformation of the cavity walls due to the cavity cool-down, pressure effects and mechanical vibrations. To readjust the fast frequency changes in consequence of the cavity shape deformation, a new concept for the dynamic frequency tuning has been investigated, including a novel type of bellow-tuner.

At GSI a new, superconducting (sc) continuous wave (cw) LINAC is under design in cooperation with the Institute for Applied Physics (IAP) of Frankfurt University and the Helmholtz Institut Mainz (HIM). This proposed LINAC is highly requested by a broad community of future users to fulfill the requirements of nuclear chemistry, nuclear physics, and especially in the research field of Super Heavy Elements (SHE). In this context the preliminary layout of the LINAC has been carried out by IAP. The main acceleration of up to 7.3 AMeV will be provided by nine sc Crossbar-H-mode (CH) cavities operated at 217 MHz. Currently, a prototype of the cw LINAC as a demonstrator is under development. The demonstrator comprises a sc CH-cavity embedded between two sc solenoids mounted in a horizontal cryomodule. A full performance test of the demonstrator in 2013/14 by injecting and accelerating a beam from the GSI High Charge Injector (HLI) is one important milestone of the project. The status of the demonstrator is presented.

The MYRRHA Project (Multi Purpose Hybrid Reactor for High Tech Applications) at Mol/belgium will be a user facility with emphasis on research with neutron generated by a spallation source. One main aspect is the demonstration of nuclear waste technology using an accelerator driven system. A superconducting linac delivers a 4 mA, 600 MeV proton beam. The first accelerating section is covered by the 17 MeV injector. It consists of a proton source, an RFQ, two room temperature CH cavities and 4 superconducting CH-cavities. The initial design has used an RF frequency of 352 MHz. Recently the frequency of the injector has been set to 176 MHz. The main reason is the possible use of a 4-rod-RFQ with reduced power dissipation and energy, respectively. The status of the overall injector layout including cavity design is presented.
