	Funding: This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Nuclear Physics, under contract number DE-AC02-06CH11357 and WFO 8R268. This paper reports on the development and testing of a superconducting quarter-wave and a superconducting half-wave resonator. The quarter-wave resonator is designed for β = 0.077 ions, operates at 72 MHz and can provide more than 7.4 MV of accelerating voltage at the design beta, with peak surface fields of 164 mT and 117 MV/m. Operation was limited to this level not by RF surface defects but by our available RF power and administrative limits on x-ray production. A similar goal is being pursued in the development of a half-wave resonator designed for β = 0.29 ions and operated at 325 MHz.

	The Rare Isotope Science Project is launched in Korea to build a IF and ISOL facilities. The IF driver superconducting linac is to accelerate ion beams up to 200 MeV/u for U beam and 600 MeV for proton beam. The ISOL post linac is a superconducting linac to accelerate up to 18 MeV/u for U beam. General layout of SC linac is discussed.

TUPB033	Piezoelectric Actuator Based Phase Locking System for IUAC Linac	controls, linac, resonance, high-voltage	549

	The linac of IUAC consists of three main accelerating modules with each one housing eight superconducting quarter wave resonators. Currently, the phase locking of the resonator is performed by a combination of fast I-Q based electronic tuner and helium gas flow based mechanical tuner. Microphonics measurement on the resonators found the presence of lower frequency vibrations along with main mechanical mode (~60 Hz) of the resonators. Although main mechanical mode of the resonator is damped by using SS balls, the presence of lower frequency vibrations demand more RF power from the amplifier, as the existing mechanical tuner works in time scale of seconds. A combination of piezoelectric actuator based fast tuner along with stepper motor based coarse tuner operating in the time scale of milliseconds is being developed. This scheme is implemented on a few resonators in last linac cryostat. Initial results show that this mechanism can arrest all low frequency vibrations thereby reducing a substantial load from the electronic tuner and improve the dynamics of the phase locking scheme. The implementation scheme along with test results will be presented in detail.

TUPB043	One Design of Heavy Ion Linac Injector for CSRm	linac, ion, emittance, acceleration	573
	X.H. Zhang, J.W. Xia, Y.J. Yuan IMP, Lanzhou, People's Republic of China
	The design of heavy ion linac as one new injector of the main Cooling Storage Ring (CSRm) has been discussed. The linac design is based on interdigital H mode drift tube with KONUS (Kombinierte Null Grad Struktur). A high acceleration rate with zero degree synchronous particle phase acceleration reduce the length of IH-KONUS linac and the cost in comparison with conventional linac based on Alvarez structure. To reduce the effect of emittance growth, the RFQ structure is used in front of the IH-KONUS linac. In this linac, the design particle 238U²⁸⁺ will be accelerated to 7 AMeV, and the transmission of Uranium beam can reach up to 80%. In this report, the initial physics design of the main linac is presented.

TUPB049	Superconducting Low Beta Niobium Resonator for Heavy Ions	linac, niobium, ion, DTL	588
	P.N. Prakash, K.K. Mistri, A. Roy, J. Sacharias, S.S. Sonti IUAC, New Delhi, India
	For the high current injector at Inter-University Accelerator Centre, a new superconducting niobium resonator optimized for β = 0.05 operating at 97 MHz, has been designed and fabricated. This resonator has the highest frequency in its class among the superconducting structures designed for such low velocity particles. The resonator has been carefully modeled using Microwave Studio code to minimize the peak magnetic field in order to achieve high accelerating gradients in it. Even though the resonance frequency is high, the physical dimensions of the resonator are large enough to allow processing of its superconducting surface effectively. The mechanical design of the resonator has been modeled using ANSYS multiphysics to increase the frequency of the lowest mechanical eigenmode of the central co-axial line, and also reduce liquid helium induced pressure fluctuations in the resonator. Bead pull measurements have been performed on the niobium resonator and they match with the design values very well. Cold tests at 4.2 K will be performed in the next few weeks. This paper will briefly present the design of the low beta resonator and details of the results from the cold tests.

	W.A. Barth, V. Gettmann, S. Mickat GSI, Darmstadt, Germany W.A. Barth, P. Gerhard HIM, Mainz, Germany
	Funding: Helmholtz Institute Mainz (HIM) An upgrade program has to be realized in the next years, such that enhanced primary beam intensities at the experiment target are available. For this a new sc 28 GHz full performance ECR ion source is under development. Via a new low energy beam line an already installed new RFQ and an IH-DTL will provide for cw-heavy ion beams with high average beam intensity. It is planned to build a new cw-heavy ion-linac behind this high charge state injector. In preparation an R&D program is still ongoing: The first linac section comprising a sc CH-cavity embedded by two sc solenoids (financed by HIM) as a demonstrator will be tested with beam at the GSI High Charge Injector (HLI).The new linac should feed the GSI flagship experiments SHIP and TASCA, as well as material research, biophysics and plasma physics experiments in the MeV/u-area. The linac will be integrated in the GSI-UNILAC-environment; it is housed by the existing constructions. Different layout scenarios of a multipurpose high intensity heavy ion facility will be presented as well as the schedule for preparation and integration of the new cw-linac.

FR1A01	Heavy Ion Strippers	ion, plasma, electron, cyclotron	1050
	F. Marti FRIB, East Lansing, Michigan, USA
	Funding: This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science under Cooperative Agreement DE-SC0000661 Stripping of high current heavy ion beams is a key technology for future accelerator as FAIR (Germany) and FRIB (USA) and current ones as RIBF (RIKEN, Japan). A small change in the peak charge state produced at the stripper could require a significant expense in additional accelerating stages to obtain the required final energy. The main challenges are the thermal effects due to the high power deposition (~ 50 kW/mm³) and the radiation damage due to the high energy deposition. The effects of heavy ion beams are quite different from proton beams because of the much shorter range in matter. We will present an overview talk considering charge stripping devices like carbon foils and gas cells used worldwide as well as the current research efforts on plasma stripping, liquid metal strippers, etc. The advantages and disadvantages of the different options will be presented.
