	Funding: This manuscript has been authored by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics. Multipacting (MP) is a phenomenon which can affect stability in particle accelerators and limit performance in superconducting radio frequency cavities. In the TESLA shaped, 1.3 GHz, 9-cell cavities used in the LCLS-II (L2) and LCLS-II-HE (HE) projects, the MP-band (~17-24 MV/m) lies within the required accelerating gradients. For HE, the operating gradient of 20.8 MV/m lies well within the MP-band and cryomodule testing has confirmed that this is an issue. As such, MP processing for the HE cryomodule test program will be discussed. Early results on MP processing in cryomodules installed in the L2 linac will also be presented, demonstrating that the methods used in cryomodule acceptance testing are also successful at conditioning MP in the accelerator and that this processing is preserved in the mid-term.

TUPTB033	On the Way to a 10 MeV, Conduction-Cooled, Compact SRF Accelerator	471

	Funding: The presentation has been authored by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177. After the success of designing a compact 1 MeV, 1 MW accelerator based on conduction-cooled SRF, Jefferson Lab is now pursuing a concept to provide a tenfold increase of the beam energy. The higher energy significantly extends the range of applications for environmental remediation and industry in general. The obvious challenge for SRF is to move from a single-cell to a multicell cavity while maintaining high efficiency and the ability to operate the machine without a complex cryogenic plant. The contribution presents the latest results of this design study with respect to its centerpiece, a Nb₃Sn coated 915 MHz five-cell cavity and its corresponding RF components, i.e. FPC and HOM absorber, as well as the conduction-cooling concept based on commercially available cryocoolers.

WEPWB047	Higher Order Mode Analysis of a 915 MHz 2-Cell Cavity for a Prototype Industrial Accelerator	667

	A possible solution to reduce the complexity posed by the cryogenic systems in a superconducting RF accelerator for industrial applications, is to capitalize on the advances achieved by the Nb₃Sn superconducting RF technology, as well as the feasibility of a reliable 4 K cooling system, based on commercial cryocoolers. Following this philosophy, the conceptual design for a prototype, conduction-cooled, 4 MeV, 20 kW SRF electron linac, is being developed at Jefferson Lab. Such design is based on a 915 MHz two-cell Nb₃Sn cavity. In this contribution, we present the proposed cavity design, including the fundamental power coupler, and the preliminary analysis of the Higher Order Modes, using numerical simulations to estimate the potentially dangerous modes as a starting point to evaluate the requirements for damping for reliable operations with a cryocooler. Finally, different methods to calculate the Higher Order Modes’ Impedances are briefly discussed.

WEPWB120	Flux Expulsion Testing for LCLS-II-HE Cavity Production	876
	J.T. Maniscalco, S. Aderhold, M. Checchin, D. Gonnella, R.D. Porter SLAC, Menlo Park, California, USA T.T. Arkan, D. Bafia, J.A. Kaluzny, S. Posen Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA M.E. Bevins, A.J. Grabowski, J. Hogan, C.E. Reece, D. Savransky, H. Vennekate JLab, Newport News, VA, USA
	Nitrogen-doped niobium SRF cavities are sensitive to trapped magnetic flux, which decreases the cavity intrinsic Q₀. Prior experimental results have shown that heat treatments to 900°C and higher can result in stronger flux expulsion during cooldown; the precise temperature required tends to vary by vendor lot/ingot of the niobium material used in the cavity cells. For LCLS-II-HE, to ensure sufficient flux expulsion in all cavities, we built and tested single-cell cavities to determine this required temperature for each vendor lot of niobium material to be used in cavity cells. In this report, we present the results of the single-cell flux expulsion testing and the Q₀ of the nine-cell cavities built using the characterized vendor lots. We discuss mixing material from different vendor lots, examine the lessons learned, and finally present an outlook on possible refinements to the single-cell technique.

THIXA04	Development of a Prototype Superconducting Radio-Frequency Cavity for Conduction-Cooled Accelerators

	Funding: Work supported by the U.S. DOE, ARDAP Office, under contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177. SB¿s microscopy work at the NHMFL was partly supported by the U.S. DOE, HEP Office under Award No. DE-SC0009960. Recent progress in the development of high-quality Nb₃Sn film coatings along with the availability of cryocoolers with high cooling capacity at 4 K makes it feasible to operate SRF cavities cooled by thermal conduction at relevant accelerating gradients for use in accelerators. We have developed a prototype single-cell cavity to prove the feasibility of operation up to the accelerating gradient required for 1 MeV energy gain, cooled by conduction with cryocoolers. The cavity has a ~3 ¿m thick Nb₃Sn film on the inner surface, deposited on a ~4 mm thick bulk Nb substrate and a bulk ~7 mm thick Cu outer shell with three Cu attachment tabs. The cavity was tested up to a peak surface magnetic field of 53 mT in liquid He at 4.3 K. A horizontal test cryostat was designed and built to test the cavity cooled with three cryocoolers. The rf tests of the conduction-cooled cavity achieved a peak surface magnetic field of 50 mT and stable operation was possible with up to 18.5 W of rf heat load. The peak frequency shift due to microphonics was 23 Hz. These results represent the highest peak surface magnetic field achieved in a conduction-cooled SRF cavity to date

FRIBA06	Operational Experience From 8 Years of ELBE SRF-Gun II
	A. Arnold, M. Freitag, M. Justus, U. Lehnert, P.N. Lu, S. Ma, P. Michel, P. Murcek, A.A. Ryzhov, J. Schaber, Ch. Schneider, R. Steinbrück, J. Teichert, R. Xiang HZDR, Dresden, Germany G. Ciovati, P. Kneisel, H. Vennekate JLab, Newport News, VA, USA
	At the electron accelerator for beams with high brilliance and low emittance (ELBE), the second version of a superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) photoinjector was brought into operation in 2014. After a period of commissioning, a gradual transfer to routine operation took place in 2017, so that now more than 1800h of user beam are generated every year. Since the commission, a total of 24 cathodes (2 Cu, 12 Mg, 10 Cs₂Te) have been used, without observing serious cavity degradation. The contribution summarizes commissioning and operational experience of the last 8 years of gun operation, with special emphasis on SRF properties but also on specialties such as dark current and multipacting that are directly linked to the integration of a normal conducting cathode into the SRF cavity.
