Abstract
A heavy ion superconducting linac is being installed at ISAC/TRIUMF. A first stage of the ISAC-II upgrade at TRIUMF will see the installation of 20 quarter wave bulk niobium cavities ( β 0 = 0.057, 0.071). The cavities operate cw at 106 MHz with design peak fields of E p = 30 MV/m, B p = 60 mT while delivering an accelerating voltage of 1.08 MV at ∼4 W power consumption. All of the cavities have received BCP processing with two of the cavities receiving an additional electro-polishing treatment. The cavities have been fully characterized for rf performance and are presently being mounted in cryomodules for an initial beam test in December 2005. The report will summarize the cavity treatment procedures and present the cavity test results. In particular, we compare the EP vs. BCP treatment and present data confirming the presence of Q-disease in the BCP cavities.
