  Project-X 3-8 GeV pulsed linac is based on ILC type 1.3 GHz elliptical cavities. The cavity will operate at 25 MV/m accelerating gradient, but in contrast with XFEL and ILC projects the required loaded Q is much higher (Q=107) and RF pulse is much longer (~8ms). For these parameters Lorence force detuning (LFD) and microphonics should be controlled at the level <30 Hz. A new algorithm of LFD compensation, developed at Fermilab for ILC cavities was applied for Lorentz force compensation studies for 8ms pulses. In these studies two cavities inside TESLA-type cryomodule at Fermilab NML facility have been powered by one klystron. Studies done for different cavity gradients and different values of loaded Q demonstrated that required compensation are achievable. Detuning measurements and compensation results are presented.

  Resonance excitation of longitudinal high order modes in superconducting RF structures of Project X CW linac is studied. We analyze regimes of operation of the linac with high beam current, which can be used to provide an intense muon source for the future Neutrino Factory or Muon Collider, and also important for the Accelerator-Driven Subcritical (ADS) systems. We calculate power loss and associated heat load to the cryogenic system. Longitudinal emittance growth is estimated. We consider an alternative design of the elliptical cavity for the high energy part of linac, which is more suitable for high current operation.

  The Pulsed Linac is a will require over 200 9-cell, 1300 MHz cavities packed in 26 ILC type cryomodules to accelerate 1 mA average beam current from 3GeV to 8 GeV. The architecture of the RF must optimize RF power, beam emittance, and energy gain amid a large number of requirement and constraints. The pulse length is a critical issue. Ideally, a 26 ms pulse would allow direct injection into the Fermilab’s Main Injector, bypassing the need of the Fermilab’s Recicler. High loaded quality factors (QL) are also desirable to minimize RF power. These requirements demand an accurate control of the cavity resonant frequency disturbed by Lorentz Force Detuning and microphonics. Also the LLRF control system must regulate the RF amplitude and phase within tight bounds amid a long list of dynamic disturbances. The present work describes the simulation efforts and measurements at Fermilab facilities.

  Fermilab is developing Project-X, a high intensity superconducting H machine for high energy physics experiments. The first stage is 1 mA average, 3 GeV linac operating in CW mode. Its front-end comprises a LEBT section with magnetic focusing and pre-chopping, a 162.5 MHz RFQ and ~10 m long MEBT section which includes a high bandwidth, bunch-by-bunch capable chopper. The latter extracts, out of a nominal 5 mA peak 162.5 MHz train, and arbitrary bunch structure able to meet the requirements of different experiments. Acceleration from 2.1 MeV to 3 GeV is accomplished through five families of SRF cavities operating at three frequencies: Half-wave resonators (162.5 MHz), spoke cavities (two families at 325 MHz) and elliptical cavities (two families at 650 MHz). In this contribution, we present the status of the CW linac lattice design and results from recent beam physics studies.

Project-X is a proposed superconducting linac-based high intensity proton source at Fermilab. The machine first stages operate in CW mode from 2.1 to 3 GeV and a high bandwidth chopper is used to produce the required bunch patterns. A 162.5 MHz CW RFQ accelerates the beam from 30 keV to 2.1 MeV. A concern with CW operation is that losses either within the RFQ or in the dowstream modules should be well-understood and remain very low to ensure safe and/or reliable operation. In this contribution, we investigate the suitability of existing RFQ codes and model the PXIE RFQ (ProjectX test facility) designed constructed by LBNL to make useful predictions of loss patterns and phase space distribution.

The Project X Injector Experiment (PXIE), a test bed for the Project X front end, will be completed at Fermilab at FY12-16. One of the challenging goals of PXIE is demonstration of the capability to form a 1 mA H beam with an arbitrary selected bunch pattern from the initially 5 mA 162.5 MHz CW train. The bunch selection will be made in the Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT) at 2.1 MeV by diverting undesired bunches to an absorber. This paper will present the MEBT scheme and describe development of its elements, including the kickers and absorber.
