  The IFMIF-DONES facility will serve as a fusion-like neutron source for the assessment of materials damage in future fusion reactors. The neutron flux will be generated by the interaction between the lithium curtain and the deuteron beam from an RF linear accelerator at 40 MeV and nominal CW current of 125 mA. The last accelerating stage is a superconducting (SRF) Linac hosting five cryomodules. This SRF-Linac is equipped of two types of 175 MHz half wave superconducting cavities (HWRs). The first type of cavities (cryomodules 1 and 2), characterized by beta equal to 0.11, have been studied and qualified in the frame of IFMIF/EVEDA project. The development of the second type of cavities (cryomodules 3, 4 and 5), with higher beta of 0.18 is presented in this paper. A prototype has been designed, fabricated and tested in a vertical cryostat at CEA. The measured quality factor at nominal accelerating field (4.5 MV/m) is 2.3 109 and keeps higher than 109 up to 10 MV/m, which gives confidence in the cavity design and preparation to reach the expected performances after integration in the SRF linac.

  CEA Saclay is in charge of the production of 30 elliptical cavities cryomodule as part of the in Kind contribution to the ESS superconducting. The two medium and high beta prototypes and the three first of each type of the series cryomodules have been tested at CEA in slightly different conditions than at ESS (both in terms of cryogenic operation as well as RF conditions). The goal of these tests was to validate the assembly procedure before the delivery of the series to ESS where the final acceptance tests are performed. This paper summarizes the main results obtained during the tests at CEA with a particular attention to the field emission behaviour.

  Field emission (FE) is one of the main reasons for the degradation of accelerator cryomodules, as field emitted current tends to become more severe during the beam operation. It is essential to better understand how this phenomenon is generated and evolves from the SRF cavity preparation in the clean room, through their assembly in the cryomodule until their final test and operation. Due to the shielding environment of a cavity in its vertical test stand, or the architecture of a cryomodule, the more faint radiation occurring at the FE onset remains undetected. More precise diagnostic and analysis tools are required to gain more information. We present the developpement of dedicated time-resolved detectors for the FE radiation which aim at improving its coverage in terms of solid angle and lower energy threshold sensitivity. We approach this topic through detailed simulation based on the Geant4 toolkit in order to analyse the interaction of FE radiation with the cavity environement and optimize the detectors with respect to their application in cryomodule or vertical test stands. We illustrate by analysing recent cryomodule experimental test data.
