The Cornell high intensity photoinjector reaches a new regime of linac beam parameters where high continuous-wave electron beam currents lead to ion trapping. Above 10 mA, we have observed beam trips that limit stable machine operation to approximately 10-15 minutes. By applying known ion clearing methods, the machine lifetime increases to at least 24 hours of continuous operation, suggesting that trapped ions are the most likely cause of the trips. In this paper we share some of our observations ion trapping in the photoinjector, as well as experimental tests of three common ion mitigation methods: clearing electrodes, beam shaking and bunch gaps.

  Cornell has designed, fabricated, and tested a high current (100 mA) CW SRF prototype cryomodule for the future energy-recovery linac (ERL) based synchrotron-light facility at Cornell . It houses six 7-cell SRF cavities with individual HOM absorbers and one magnet/ BPM section. Cavities are targeted to operate with high Qo of 2.0·1010 at 16.2 MV/m, 1.8 K in continuous wave (CW) mode. We will report the RF test results of 7-cell cavities in this cryomodule after initial cooldown and several thermal cycles with different cooldown method.
