In this paper we present status and plans for the 20-MeV R&D energy recovery linac, which is under construction at Collider Accelerator Department at BNL. The facility is based on high current (up to 0.5 A of average current) super-conducting 2.5 MeV RF gun, single-mode super-conducting 5-cell RF linac and about 20-m long return loop with very flexible lattice. The R&D ERL, which is planned for commissioning in 2008, aims to address many outstanding questions relevant for high current, high brightness energy-recovery linacs.

The physics interest in a luminosity upgrade of RHIC requires the development of a cooling-frontier facility. Detailed cooling calculations have been made to determine the efficacy of electron cooling of the stored RHIC beams. This has been followed by beam dynamics simulations to establish the feasibility of creating the necessary electron beam. Electron cooling of RHIC at collisions requires electron beam energy up to about 54 MeV at an average current of between 50 to 100 mA and a particularly bright electron beam. The accelerator chosen to generate this electron beam is a superconducting Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) with a superconducting RF gun with a laser-photocathode. An intensive experimental R&D program engages the various elements of the accelerator: Photocathodes of novel design, superconducting RF electron gun of a particularly high current and low emittance, a very high-current ERL cavity and a demonstration ERL using these components.

THPMS070 High Power Testing of a Fully Axisymmetric RF Gun 3142

  Funding: This work was funded under an SBIR contract from the US Department of Energy.

High power RF testing has been performed on a novel axisymmetric radiofrequency electron gun at a frequency of 11.43 GHz using the magnicon facility at the Naval Research Laboratory. This gun utilizes coaxial coupling from the upstream end of unit and allows for axisymmetric tuning of both the cathode cell and the second cell. The features of the gun have been proven to operate at high gradients. The overall design of the gun will be discussed along with the results of the high power RF testing.
