Cryomodule Design for 325 MHz Superconducting Single Spoke Cavities and Solenoids

The low-beta section of the linac being considered for Project X at Fermilab contains several styles of 325 MHz superconducting single spoke cavities and solenoid based focusing lenses, all operating at 2 K. Each type of cavity and focusing lens will eventually be incorporated into the design of cryomodules unique to various sections of the linac front end. This paper describes the design of a multiple-cavity and solenoid cryomodule being developed to test the function of each of the main cryomodule systems – cryogenic systems and instrumentation, cavity and lens positioning and alignment, conduction-cooled current leads, magnetic shielding, cold-to-warm beam tube transitions, interfaces to interconnecting equipment and adjacent modules, as well as evaluation of overall assembly procedures.
