  The design of a thermionic electron source connected directly to a superconducting cavity, the key part of an SRF gun, is described. The results of beam dynamics optimization are presented which allow lack of beam current intercepting in the superconducting cavity. The electron source concept is presented including the cathode-grid assembly, thermal insulation of the cathode from the cavity, and the gun resonator design. The cavity thermal load caused by the gun is analyzed including the static heat load, black body radiation, backward electron heating, etc.
