Design and Prototyping of the Electron Ion Collider Electron Storage Ring 591 MHz Elliptical SRF Cavity

The Electron Ion Collider (EIC) is a new nuclear phys-ics research facility to be constructed at Brookhaven Lab (BNL). It consists a few accelerator complexes, each re-quires some different SRF and RF systems. Among them, the electron storage ring?s (ESR) 591 MHz fundamental RF system is one of the most challenging. This 17 cavi-ties system will handle a variable beam current of up to 2.5 A, and replenish up to 10 MW of beam power losses from both synchrotron radiation (SR) and high-order modes (HOM). In this paper, we will report the progress and findings of the ongoing design and prototyping of this cavity.

Cavity and Cryomodule Developements for EIC

The EIC is a major new project under construction at BNL in partnership with JLab. It relies upon a number of new SRF cavities at 197 MHz, 394 MHz, 591 MHz and 1773 MHz to pre-bunch, accelerate, cool and crab the stored beams. R&D is focusing on the 591 MHz elliptical cavity and 197 MHz crab cavity first as these are the most challenging. Preliminary designs of these cavities are presented along with an R&D status report. To avoid developing multiple different cryostats a modular approach is adopted using a high degree of commonality of parts and systems. This approach may be easily adapted to other frequencies and applications.
