Development and Test of ADS Injector Ⅱ RFQ Accelerator

The injector Ⅱ RFQ accelerator of ADS is used to accelerate protons of 10 mA from 35 keV to 2.1 MeV. The cavity structure of the RFQ is the same as that of the SNS RFQ which has a square cross section, and it adopts π-mode rods to enhance the RF (radio frequency) stability of the cavity. Low power tests show that the flatness of the cavity is better than ±0.01 and the unloaded Q value is 13 000. CW (continuous wave) working condition was realized after a long time conditioning of the cavity. Beam tests were conducted with a current of 10 mA in pulse mode and CW mode, respectively, and it indicates that the transmission efficiency is 95.3%, output energy is 2.165 MeV, energy spread is 1.9%, and the transverse and longitudinal emittances are all 0.33 πmm•mrad.
