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.

THPAS095 Ferrite-lined HOM Absorber for the e-Cool ERL 3705

An R&D facility for an Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) intended as part of the 'Electron-Cooling Xperiment' for RHIC is being constructed at this laboratory. The center piece of the project is the experimental 5-cell 703.75 MHz superconducting ECX cavity. Successful operation will depend on effective HOM suppression, and it is planned to achieve HOM damping exclusively with room temperature ferrite absorbers. A ferrite-lined pillbox model with dimensions reflecting the operational unit was assembled, and the cavity resonances and quality factors were determined from scattering coefficient measurements and were interpreted as surface impedance. Results from a 5-cell copper cavity with an attached ferrite absorber prototype are used for the prediction of the ECX cavity HOM damping. A rotational symmetric ferrite-lined pillbox was analyzed theoretically and compared with the simulation codesμWave Studio, GdfidL, and Superfish. Discrepancies of the resonance frequencies and Q-values were found, and steps to reach agreement are discussed.
