Current Status of RFCC Module• RF Cavities:
• All 11 beryllium windows received at LBNL (1st RFCC module)• Ten ceramic RF windows received• Six tuner flexures are being fabricated at Fermilab• Components for 6 actuators are being fabricated• RF coupler design has been modified to eliminate the gap between
the outer coax and the RF loop• Fabrication of fixturing for the electropolishing is complete• Mechanical smoothing of the cavity inside surface before EP• Single cavity vacuum vessel, being fabricated at Keller Technology in
Buffalo New York, is complete and should be at Fermilab this wk.

Beryllium Windows
• Eleven beryllium windows have been fabricated so far:
• Curved thin (0.38-mm thick) window with TiN-coating on both sides
• Received two new beryllium windows recently, these two windows have been fabricated by Materion Electrofusion (fomer Brush-Wellman) to replace the windows rejected due to excess distortion with improved brazing design/technique: no distortion is observed.

RF power (loop) coupler
• RF power (loop) coupler design has been modified to eliminate the gap between the loop and the outer coax tube

• Testing/experience of the prototype cavity at MTA: sparking at the coupler• The coupler design has been changed slightly to increase the gap spacing• The sparking region can be TiN coated if necessary (plan to be tested at MTA
using the prototype cavity)• Adding diagnostics: arc detector at the coupler region

Cavity Measurements
Cavity physical measurement Cavity frequency measurement
• Physical measurements for the six remaining cavities expected to take approximately 1-1/2 weeks (60 hours)
• RF measurements and tuning to a center frequency after EP

Cavity Electropolish at LBNL
• The inner surface of each cavity will be mechanically smoothed and then electropolished at LBNL using the similar techniques developed at JLab for the prototype cavity
• Fabrication of EP fixturing is complete and electropolishing will start in soon (ES & H approval)• Electropolishing process will take approximately 1- 2 days for each cavity or 4 weeks to complete
all 10 cavities

RFCC Future Work• RFCC Vacuum Vessel:
• Vessel design is complete but needs to be updated to incorporate changes to the interface with the new coupling coil cryostat design
• Fixturing for the assembly process needs to be finalized and drawings for fabrication generated
•RFCC Module:• Finalize fixturing for module assembly and shipping
• for aligning the frequency tuners onto cavities• for inserting the cavities into vacuum vessel• shipping skid/tilt fixturing for shipping RFCC to RAL
• RF control/analysis :• Diagnostics/control/analysis/interfaces • LLRF control (amplitude/phase) and correlations with detectors
• Timing signal from detector, and calibration & synchronization with RF
