Fermilab’s Horizontal Test Stand has recently been upgraded to provide CW RF testing capabilities in support of the LCLS-II project at SLAC. Several cavities have been tested in this new configuration in order to validate component designs and processes for meeting the requirements of LCLS-II. Areas of study included gradient and Q0 performance and their dependence on extrinsic factors, thermal performance of the input coupler and HOM feedthroughs, and microphonics and RF control. A description of the testing and the results obtained are presented.

Fermilab has recently completed an upgrade to its spoke resonator test cryostat to enable testing of cavities in superfluid helium. Two single-spoke resonators with differing helium vessel designs have been tested in this new configuration. Gradient and Q0 performance was studied along with microphonics control and sensitivity of the resonant frequency to pressure variations. A description of the testing and the results obtained are presented.

  Fermilab is currently building the Project X Injector experiment (PXIE). The PXIE linac will accelerate a 1 mA H beam up to 30 MeV and serve as a testbed for validation of Project X concepts and mitigation of technical risks. A cryomodule of eight superconducting RF Single Spoke Resonators of type 1 (SSR1) cavities operating at 325 MHz is an integral part of PXIE. Ten SSR1 cavities were manufactured in industry and delivered to Fermilab. We discuss tests of nine bare SSR1 cavities at the Fermilab Vertical Test Stand (VTS). Recently, one of the SSR1 cavities was welded inside a helium jacket. Results of the test of this cavity in the Fermilab Spoke Test Cryostat (STC) are shown. We report on the measured performance parameters of SSR1 cavities achieved during the tests.
