	The proposed energy recovery linac at Cornell aims for high beam currents and short bunch lengths, the combination of which requires efficient damping of the higher order modes (HOMs) being present in the superconducting cavities. Numerical simulations show that the expected HOM power could be as high as 200 W per cavity with frequencies ranging to 40 GHz. Consequently, a beam line absorber approach was chosen. We will review the design, report on first results from a prototype and discuss further improvements.

WEPWO060	The CW Linac Cryo-module for Cornell’s ERL	2444

	Cornell University has proposed an energy-recovery linac (ERL) based synchrotron-light facility which can provide greatly improved X-ray beams due to the high electron-beam quality that is available from a linac. As part of the phase 1 R&D program, critical challenges in the design were addressed, one of them being a full linac cryo-module. It houses 6 superconducting cavities- operated at 1.8 K in cw mode- HOM absorbers and a magnet/ BPM section. We will present the design being finalized recently and report on the fabrication status that started in late 2012.

	Funding: NSF DMR-0807731 Cornell has recently ﬁnished producing and testing the ﬁrst prototype 7-cell main linac cavity for the Cornell Energy Recovery Linac, and completed the prototype cavity qualification program. This paper presents quality factor results from the horizontal test cryomodule (HTC) measurements, from the HTC-1 through HTC-3 experiments, reaching Q's up to 6 x 10¹⁰ at 1.6 K. We investigate the effect of thermal cycling on cavity quality factor and show that high quality factors can be preserved from initial mounting to fully outfitting the cavity with side-mounted input coupler and beam line absorbers. We also discuss the production of six additional main-linac cavities as we progress toward constructing a full 6-cavity cryomodule.

Cornell has recently ﬁnished producing and testing the ﬁrst prototype 7-cell main linac cavity for the Cornell Energy Recovery Linac, and completed the prototype cavity qualification program. This paper presents quality factor results from the horizontal test cryomodule (HTC) measurements, from the HTC-1 through HTC-3 experiments, reaching Q's up to 6 x 10¹⁰ at 1.6 K. We investigate the effect of thermal cycling on cavity quality factor and show that high quality factors can be preserved from initial mounting to fully outfitting the cavity with side-mounted input coupler and beam line absorbers. We also discuss the production of six additional main-linac cavities as we progress toward constructing a full 6-cavity cryomodule.
