	The European X-ray Free Electron Laser (EXFEL) injector linac hosts a 3.9~GHz module (AH1) for beam longitudinal phase space manipulation after the first acceleration stage, in order for the linac to deliver the high current beams with sufficiently low emittance for the production of 1 Angstrom FEL light to the experimental users. The module was technically commissioned in December 2015 and operated well above its nominal performances during the Injector Run from January to July 2016. Its operation has restarted in January 2017 with the startup of the whole facility, and the system met the design beam specifications after the bunch compression stages. A brief review of the commissioning and first operation experience of the RF system are presented here.

MOPVA066	Limits for the Operation of the European XFEL 3.9 GHz System in CW Mode	1023
	P. Pierini, A. Bosotti, R. Paparella, D. Sertore INFN/LASA, Segrate (MI), Italy J. Branlard, D. Kostin, C.G. Maiano, W.-D. Möller, P. Pierini, D. Reschke, J.K. Sekutowicz, E. Vogel DESY, Hamburg, Germany
	Future upgrades of the European XFEL (EXFEL) facility may require driving the linac at higher duty factor, possibly extending to CW mode at reduced gradients. A preliminary analysis for the accelerator modules has been presented in the EXFEL TDR, but no precise assessment has been performed so far for the present 3.9 GHz system design. By making use of data collected during the commissioning and operation phase of the EXFEL injector system, we discuss here an estimate for the limits of CW operation of the present system and a plan for its possible experimental verification with existing available cavities and the EXFEL spare module.

	The European Spallation Source (ESS) project is a neutron-scattering facility, currently under construction by a partnership of at least 17 European countries, with Sweden and Denmark as host nations. The ESS was designated a European Research Infrastructure Consortium, or ERIC, by the European Commission in October of 2015. Scientists and engineers from 50 different countries are members of the workforce in Lund who participate in the design and construction of the European Spallation Source. In complement to the local workforce, the superconducting RF linear accelerator is being prototyped and will be constructed based on a collaboration with European institutions: CEA-Saclay, CNRS-IPN Orsay, INFN-LASA, STFC-Daresbury, Uppsala and Lund Universities. After a description of the ESS collaborative project and its in-kind model for the SRF linac, this article will introduce the linac component first results.

	The European Spallation Source (ESS) is a pan-European project and one of world's largest research infrastructures based on neutron sources. This collaborative project is funded by a collaboration of 17 European countries and is under construction in Lund, Sweden. The 5 MW, 2.86 ms long pulse proton accelerator has a repetition frequency of 14 Hz (4 % duty cycle), and a beam current of 62.5 mA. The Superconducting Radio-Frequency (SRF) linac is composed of three families of Superconducting Radio-Frequency (SRF) cavities, which are being prototyped, counting the spoke resonators with a geometric beta of 0.5, medium-beta elliptical cavities (beta_g=0.67) and high-beta elliptical cavities (beta_g=0.86). After a description of the ESS linear accelerator layout, this article will focus on the recent progress towards integration of the first test results of the main critical components to be assembled in cryomodules, then in the ESS tunnel.

MOPVA062	Test, Diagnostics and Computed Tomographic Inspection of a Large Grain 3.9 GHz Prototype Cavity	1011

	A large grain 3.9 GHz prototype cavity made of RRR = 10⁵ ±10 has been tested at LASA. The cavity suffered of quench at moderate levels of accelerating field, for all nine fundamental pass-band modes. Several diagnostic techniques have been employed to determine the quench positions, which occur close to significant grain-boundary steps, visible from the external cavity surface. The cavity has been scanned with a high resolution X-ray tomographic machine, confirming the existence of remarkable topographic features on the inner RF surface at the suspected quench positions. A strategy for a future surface treatment for recover the cavity performances is here presented.

	In the framework of the INFN activity related to the European Spallation Source collaboration, the LASA infrastructure has been renewed to allow the qualification, in its vertical cryostat, of the 704 MHz medium beta cavity prototypes. A new cryogenic insert has been realized, fully equipped with dedicated mechanical supports, vacuum, thermal sensors and quench diagnostic systems. The RF test station has been upgraded as well with a new PLL electronics rack. The first beta 0.67 cavity prototype designed and produced by INFN Milano has been successfully cold tested at 2.0 K temperature, outperforming the ESS specifications. The technical features of LASA infrastructure, the design of novel components and the experimental results of cavities cold-tests are thoroughly described in this paper.
