  In the framework of the European Spallation Source (ESS), some power couplers have been designed and manufactured to supply, with RF power, the medium-beta (β=0.67) elliptical cavities of the cryomodule demonstrator. The power couplers work at 704.4 MHz and are tested up to 1.2 MW (repetition rate=14 Hz, RF pulse width close to 3.6 milliseconds). The CEA Saclay is in charge of the design, the manufacturing, the preparation and the conditioning of these power couplers. In this paper, after a general presentation of the power couplers used in the ESS LINAC and their characteristics, we give some détails about the manufacturing and then we describe the different steps of the preparation (cleaning), the assembly of the couplers on the coupling box in cleanroom, the baking of the couplers and the conditioning procedure. Finally, the experimental results obtained in travelling and standing waves on the first pairs of couplers will be shown.

  This paper gives the fabrication status of the IFMIF cryomodule. This cryomodule will be part of the Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator (LIPAc) whose construction is ongoing at Rokkasho, Japan. It is a full scale of one of the IFMIF accelerator, from the injector to the first cryomodule. The cryomodule contains all the necessary equipment to transport and accelerate a 125 mA deuteron beam from an input energy of 5 MeV up to the output energy of 9 MeV. It consists of a horizontal vacuum tank of around 6 m long, 3 m high and 2.0 m wide, which includes 8 superconducting HWRs for beam acceleration, working at 175 MHz and at 4.45 K, 8 Power Couplers to provide RF power to cavities up to 70 kW CW in LIPAc case and 200 kW CW in IFMIF case, and 8 Solenoid Packages as focusing elements.

  The IFMIF accelerator aims to provide an accelerator-based D-Li neutron source to produce high intensity high energy neutron flux to test samples as possible candidate materials to a full lifetime of fusion energy reactors. A prototype of the low energy part of the accelerator is under construction at Rokkasho in Japan. It includes one cryomodule containing 8 half-wave resonators (HWR) operating at 175 MHz .The first manufactured HWR has passed low power tests at 4.2K in vertical cryostat succesfully and exceeds the specifications. It has also been tested in the dedicated horizontal Sathori cryostat equiped with its cold tuning system. The serial production and qualification tests of the 8 cavities which will eventually equip the cryomodule are carried out in parallel. In this paper, we focus on the HWR preparation and test results and give a status of the manufacturing activities.
