Abstract
Traveling wave SRF cavity is a new technology and requires a multi-stage process for development. Conceptual designs have been proposed to adopt TW resonance in an SRF cavity The early stages of developments have been funded by several SBIR grants to Euclid Techlabs which were completed in collaboration with Fermilab. A 3-cell proof-of-principle TW cavity was fabricated as part of that and demonstrated the TW resonance excitation at room temperature. A TW resonance control tuner for the 3-cell was also fabricated and the preliminary tests were performed. Now, the 3-cell cavity is being processed and prepared for the first cryogenic testing.
