Abstract

A 499 MHz parallel bar superconducting deflecting cavity has been designed and optimized [1,2] for a possible implementation at the Jefferson Lab. Previously the mechanical analysis [3], mainly stress, was performed. Since then pressure sensitivity was studied further and the cavity parts were fabricated. The prototype cavity is not completed due to the renovation at Jefferson Lab which resulted in the temporary shutdown of the electron beam welding facility. This paper will present the analysis results and facts encountered during fabrication. The unique geometry of the cavity and its required mechanical strength present interesting manufacturing challenges.
