Tests of a tuner for a 325 MHz SRF spoke resonator
Fermilab is developing 325 MHz SRF spoke cavities for the proposed Project X. A compact fast/slow tuner has been developed for final tuning of the resonance frequency of the cavity after cooling down to operating temperature and to compensate microphonics and Lorentz force detuning [2]. The modified tuner design and results of 4.5K tests of the first prototype are presented. The performance of lever tuners for the SSR1 spoke resonator prototype has been measured during recent CW and pulsed tests in the Fermilab SCTF. The tuner met or exceeded all design goals and has been used to successfully: (1) Bring the cold cavity to the operating frequency; (2) Compensate for dynamic Lorentz force detuning; and (3) Compensate for frequency detuning of the cavity due to changes in the He bath pressure.
