  The European Spallation Source (ESS) accelerator is a large superconducting linac under construction in Lund, Sweden. A collaboration between CEA Saclay, IPN Orsay and ESS-AB is established to design the elliptical cavities cryomodule of the linac. It is foreseen to build and test two cryomodule demonstrators within the next two years. We present the design evolution and the fabrication status of the cryomodule components housing four cavities. The latest test results of two prototype cavities are shown. The cryomodule assembly process and the on-going testing infrastructures at CEA Saclay are also described.

  Protecting superconducting cavities from the surrounding static magnetic field is considered as a key point to reach very good cavity performances. This can be achieved by both limiting the causes of magnetic flux around the cavity in the cryomodule, and enclosing cavities and/or cryomodules into magnetic shields. We will present the effort made at CEA into this direction: shield design, shield material characterization, at room and cryogenic temperature, and search and attenuation of the magnetic background present in the cryomodule during the cavities superconducting transition. This last point will be especially studied for the IFMIF project where the cryomodule houses the focusing magnets. Aspects of the cold magnetic shields for ESS will also be discussed.

  The ESS elliptical superconducting linac consists of two types of 704.42 MHz cavities, medium and high beta, to accelerate the beam from 216 MeV (spoke cavity linac) up to the full energy at 2 GeV. The last linac optimization, called Optimus+, has been carried out taking into account the limitations of SRF cavity performance (field emission). The medium and high-beta parts of the linac are composed of 36 and 84 elliptical cavities, with geometrical beta values of 0.67 and 0.86 respectively. We describe here the procedures and numerical analysis leading from half-cells to a complete medium cavity assembly, which take into account not only the frequency of the fundamental accelerating mode but also the higher order modes near the machine line. The half cell selection process to form dumb bells will be described, as well as the reshaping and trimming procedure.

  The IFMIF accelerator aims to provide an accelerator-based D-Li neutron source to produce high intensity high energy neutron flux to test samples as possible candidate materials to a full lifetime of fusion energy reactors. The first phase of the project aims at validating the technical options for the construction of an accelerator prototype, called LIPAc (Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator). A cryomodule hosting 8 Half Wave Resonators (HWR) at 175 MHz will provide the acceleration from 5 to 9 MeV. We report on the progress of the HWR manufacturing. A pre-series cavity will be used to assess and optimize the tuning procedure of the HWR, as well as the processing steps and related tooling. A new horizontal test cryostat (SATHORI) is also being set up at Saclay in the existing SRF test area. The SATHORI is dedicated to the IFMIF HWR performance check, fully equipped with its power coupler and cold tuning system. A 30kW-RF power will be available for these tests.
