Muon cooling requires high-gradient normal conducting cavities operating in multi-Tesla magnetic fields for muon beam focusing in an ionization cooling channel. Recent experience with an 805-MHz pillbox cavity at the Fermilab MuCool Test Area has shown a significant drop in accelerating field performance for the case of parallel electric and magnetic fields. It has been suggested that having the magnetic field perpendicular to the electric field should provide magnetic insulation and suppress breakdown. An 805-MHz Cu rectangular box cavity was built for testing with the fields perpendicular. It was mounted on an adjustable support to vary the angle between the rf electric and external magnetic field. We report on the design and initial operation of the rectangular box cavity.
