The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), under con-struction at Michigan State University, will utilize a driver linac to accelerate stable ion beams from protons to ura-nium up to energies of >200 MeV per nucleon with a beam power of up to 400 kW. Superconducting technology is widely used in the FRIB project, including the ion sources, linac, and experiment facilities. The FRIB linac consists of 48 cryomodules containing a total of 332 superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) resonators and 69 superconducting solenoids. We report on the design and the construction of FRIB cryomodules.

  Superconducting (SC) solenoids provide efficient focusing of ion beams in SC linacs. This talk will discuss design, installation and operational experience of long cryomodules containing multiple SC solenoids. The techniques for the alignment of cavity-solenoid string will be presented. The solenoid assemblies include X-, Y-steering coils and does not require any iron shielding. The studies of SRF cavity properties after the quenching next to the solenoid will be presented.

The driver linac for the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) will require the production of 48 cryomodules (CMs). In addition to the β=0.085 quarter-wave CM, FRIB has completed the design of a β=0.53 half-wave CM as a pre-production prototype. This CM will qualify the performance of the resonators, fundamental power couplers, tuners, and cryogenic systems of the β=0.53 half-wave design. In addition to the successful systems qualification; the β=0.53 CM build will also verify the FRIB bottom up assembly and alignment method on a half-wave CM type. The lessons learned from the β=0.085 pre-production CM build including valuable fabrication, sourcing, and assembly experience have been applied to the design of β=0.53 half-wave CM. This paper will report the design of the β=0.53 half-wave CM as well as the CM interfaces within the linac tunnel.

  The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) is an x-ray free electron laser facility. The proposed upgrade of the LCLS facility is based on construction of a new 4 GeV superconducting (SC) linac that will operate in continuous wave (CW) mode. The major infrastructure investments and the operating cost of a SC CW linac are outlined by its cryogenic requirements. Thus, a detail understanding of RF losses in the cryogenic environment is critical for the entire project. In this paper we review RF losses in a 1.3 GHz accelerating cryomodule of the LCLS-II linac. RF losses due to various sources such untrapped higher order modes (HOMs), resonant losses etc. are addressed and presented here.

  In the framework of the ERL prototyping, Cornell University has built two cryomodules, one injector module and one prototype Main Linac Cryomodule (MLC). In 2015, the MLC was successfully cooled down for the first time. We will report details on the cool-down as well as cycle tests we did in order to achieve slow and fast cool-down of the cavities. We will also report on the improvement we made on the injector cryomodule which also included a modification of the heat exchanger can that allows now a more controlled cool-down, too.

  The assembly of the first two cryomodules (CM1 and CM2) of the new superconducting linear accelerator HIE-ISOLDE (High Intensity and Energy ISOLDE), located downstream of the REX-ISOLDE normal conducting accelerator, started one year and half ago. After a delicate assembly phase in the cleanroom which lasted nine months, the first cryomodule was transported to the ISOLDE hall on 2 May 2015 and coupled to the existing REX-ISOLDE accelerator, increasing the energy of the radioactive ion beams from 2.8 to 4.3 MeV per nucleon. The superconducting linac supplied the CERN-ISOLDE Facility, with radioactive zinc ions until the end of the proton run in November 2015. At the beginning of 2016, the second cryomodule was installed in the machine, increasing the energy to 5.5 MeV per nucleon. During commissioning of the first cryomodule in summer 2015, it was found that the performance of the RF superconductive cavities was limited by the over-heating of their RF couplers. The decision was taken to refurbish CM1 and reinstall it at the end of April. In this paper, we present the challenges faced and the experience gained with the cleanroom assembly of the first two cryomodules, especially the construction of the SC RF cavities and their RF ancillaries.

The driver linac for the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) comprises four kinds of cavities (=0.041, 0.085, 0.29, and 0.53) and six types of cryomodules including matching modules. FRIB has started the fabrication of a β=0.53 preproduction cryomodule, which is the first prototype for a half-wave (=0.29 and 0.53) cavity. This paper describes the fabrication progress and the lessons learned from the β=0.53 preproduction cryomodule.

  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.

Cryogenic magnetic shielding (A4K) is generally used in SRF cryomodules which is much more expensive than mu-metal used in room temperature. In order to reduce the cost, FRIB QWR and HWR magnetic shieldings were redesign to improve the shielding performance so that mu-metal can be implemented as an alternative shielding material. The magnetic shielding of first FRIB β=0.085 cryomodule was made up of 50% by A4K and 50% by mu-metal. Cavities were tested in 4K and 2K, the results showed that the Q0 of cavities were similar for both shielding materials, which is a success as a validation test for mu-metal magnetic shielding.

We observed the outside magnetic field of the first β=0.085 production cryomodule while a solenoid and steering dipoles are under operation. This measurement aims to check the polarity on these magnets after the final installation in the accelerating tunnel. This paper also shows the residual magnetic field variation through the degaussing process of these magnets.
