The number of polarized particle in the cooler synchrotron COSY is limited by the present injector system. A new linac was projected based on superconductive half-wave resonators to fill COSY up to the space charge limit. The first prototype of a 160 MHz Half-Wave Resonator (HWR) has been built and tested. RF-measurements in CW as well as in a pulsed operation will be presented. A second prototype with a slightly different way of fabrication will be completed soon. All measurements have been done using the new 4 kW loop-coupler. The use of a cold window allows to change the coupling from 1· 106 to 1· 1010 without any risk of contamination. The mechanical tuner consisting of a stepper motor driven coarse tuner and a fast piezo system to compensate the Lorentz-Force detuning has successfully integrated into the vertical test-cryostat. |
