Usually 4-ROD Radio Frequency Quadrupoles (RFQ) are built for frequencies up to 216 MHz. For higher frequencies 4-VANE structures are more common. The advantages of 4-Rod structures, the greater flexibility for tuning and being more comfortable for maintenance, are motivating the development of a 4-Rod RFQ for higher frequencies than 216 MHz. In particular a 325 MHz RFQ with an output energy of 3 MeV is needed for the proton linac for the FAIR project of GSI. This paper reports about the design studies and the latest developments of this RFQ.

For the injector upgrade at FNAL a 4-rod Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) with a resonance frequency of 200 MHz has been build. With this short structure of only 1.3 m a very compact injector design has been realized. Simulations with CST Microwave Studio® were performed for the design. Their results leading to the RF characterizations of the RFQ and the final RF setup which has been accomplished at IAP of the Goethe-University Frankfurt are presented in this paper.
