  The ARIEL electron linac has been added to the TRIUMF facility as a new driver for the production of radioactive isotopes through photo-fission to complement the existing 500 MeV, H- TRIUMF cyclotron. The electron beam driver is specified as a 50 MeV, 10 mA cw superconducting electron linac at 1.3 GHz. The first 30 MeV stage of the e-linac consisting of two cryomodules is completed. The paper will describe the recent commissioning and early operation results.

  The Advanced Rare Isotope Laboratory (ARIEL) project at TRIUMF requires a 50 MeV superconducting electron Linac consisting of five nine cell 1.3 GHz cavities divided into three cryomodules with one, two and two cavities in each module respectively. The cryomodule design utilizes a unique box cryomodule with a top-loading cold mass. LHe is distributed in parallel to each cryomodule at 4 K and at ~1.2 bar. Each cryomodule has a cryogenic insert on board that receives the 4 K liquid and produces 2 K liquid into a cavity phase separator. In the cryomodules the natural two-phase convection loops, i.e. siphon loop, are installed which supply 4 K liquid to thermal intercepts and return the vaporized liquid to the 4 K reservoir as a refrigerator load. The design of the cryomodule, the simulation results with Ansys Fluent and the results of the cold tests will be presented.
