Abstract : CEA is committed to delivering a Medium Energy
Beam Transfer line and a superconducting linac (SCL) [1]
for SARAF accelerator in order to accelerate 5mA beam
of either protons from 1.3 MeV to 35 MeV or deuterons
from 2.6 MeV to 40.1 MeV. The SCL consists 4
cryomodules equipped with warm diagnostics. The first
two identical cryomodules host 6 half-wave resonator
(HWR) low beta cavities (β = 0.091), 176 MHz. As the
last two identical welcome 7 HWR high-beta cavities (β =
0.181), 176 MHz. The beam is focused through the
superconducting solenoids located between cavities and
housing steering coils. A Beam Position Monitor is placed
upstream each solenoid. A diagnostic box containing a
beam profiler, a bunch length monitor and a vacuum
pump will be inserted between 2 consecutive
cryomodules. The HWR cavities, the solenoid package,
the cryomodules and the warm sections are being
designed. These studies will be presented in this
contribution.
