An electron-ion collider (eRHIC) proposed at BNL requires superconducting RF cavities able to support high average beam current. A 5-cell niobium SRF cavity, called BNL3, was designed for a conventional lattice eRHIC design. To avoid inducing emittance degradation and beam-break-up (BBU), the BNL3 cavity was optimized to damp all dangerous higher-order-modes (HOMs) by employing a large beam pipes and coaxial antenna-type couplers. Additionally, the cavity was designed for an acceptable cryogenic load and peak surface RF fields. Two BNL3 cavities have been fabricated and tested at a vertical test facility at BNL. This paper addresses development of the SRF cavities for eRHIC, including SRF cavity design, fabrication and test results. |
