  Several high power superconducting (SC) proton linear accelerators are currently in the design stage around the world, such as for example the European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund, Project X at Fermilab, the European ADS demonstrator MYRRAH in Mol and the Superconducting Proton linac (SPL) at CERN. In this contribution, the influence of Higher Order Modes (HOMs) in elliptical SC cavities is discussed as a function of the operation frequency, the number of cells and the geometrical beta of the cavity. Based on cavity design data beam dynamics simulations are executed for different linac layouts to quantify the influence of HOMs.

  We propose a versatile THz source named FLUTE (“Ferninfrarot Linac- Und Test-Experiment”) based on a 30 - 50 MeV S-band linac with bunch compressor, that shall not only provide high field THz pulses applications but shall also serve as a test facility to study important accelerator physics issues. This is also of importance in view of the planned utltra-broadband THz to mid infrared user facility TBONE. Special emphasis is put on studies of bunch compression and beam stability as a function of bunch charge (0.1-5 nC) and of different generation mechanisms of coherent radiation (CSR, CER, CTR). This paper describes the design and layout of the proposed FLUTE machine and presents results of beam dynamic calculations with the tracking programs ASTRA and CSRtrack.
