Abstract

A 5-cell SRF cavity operating at 704 MHz will be used for the Coherent Electron Cooling Proof of Principle (CeC PoP) system under development for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The CeC PoP experiment will demonstrate the new technique of cooling proton and ion beams that may increase the beam luminosity in certain cases, by as much as tenfold. The 704 MHz cavity will accelerate 2 MeV electrons from a 112 MHz SRF gun up 22 MeV. Novel mechanical designs, including a superfluid heat exchanger, helium vessel, vacuum vessel and tuner mechanism are presented. Structural and thermal analysis, using ANSYS [1] were performed to confirm the mechanical tuning system structural stability. This paper provides an overview of the design, the project status and schedule of the 704 MHz 5-cell SRF for CeC PoP experiment.
