The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) has been commissioned, with rare isotopes first produced in December 2021 and first user experiments conducted in May 2022. The FRIB driver linear accelerator (linac) uses 6 room temperature cavities, 324 superconducting cavities, and 69 superconducting solenoids to accelerate ions to more than 200 MeV/nucleon. Because of the large scale, automation is essential for reliable linac operation with high availability. Automation measures implemented during linac commissioning include turn-on of the cavities and solenoids, turn-on and fast recovery for room temperature devices, and emergency shut down of linac devices. Additional automated tasks include conditioning of multipacting barriers in the cavities and calibration of the control valves for the pneumatic tuners. To ensure a smooth transition to operations, we are currently working on real-time health monitoring of the linac cryomodules, including critical signals such as X-ray levels, RF coupler temperatures, and cryogenic parameters. In this paper, we will describe our automation procedures, the implementation details, and the experience we gained.

  New CH-DTL cavities designs of the planned Helmholtz Linear Accelerator (HELIAC) are developed in collaboration of GSI, HIM and IAP Frankfurt. The in cw-mode operating linac with a final energy of 7.3 MeV/u, is intended for various experiments, in particular with heavy ions at energies close to the Coulomb barrier for research on SHE. Twelve sc CH cavities are foreseen, divided into four different cryostats each equipped with two dynamic bellow tuner. After successful beam tests with CH0, CH3 to CH11 were designed. Based on the experience gained so far, optimizations were made, which will lead to both an increase in performance in terms of reducing the peak fields limiting superconductivity and a reduction in manufacturing costs and time. In order to optimize manufacturing, attention was paid to design many parts of the cavity, such as lids, spokes, tuner and helium shell, with the same geometrical dimensions. In addition, a tuner test rig was developed, which will be used to investigate the mechanical properties of the bellow tuner. For this purpose, different simulations were made in order to realize conditions as close as possible to reality in the test rig.

Rare Isotope Science Project (RISP) in the Institute of Basic Science (IBS), Daejeon, South Korea, is developing the high-energy superconducting(SC) linac composed with two types of superconducting cavity, single spoke resonator type-1 (SSR1) and type-2 (SSR2). Both cavities have same frequency 325MHz, but different beta, 0.3 and 0.51 each. For operating SC cavity within the target frequency, all outer disturbances should be removed or avoided. As a view of mechanical vibration, comparably low frequency up to 20kHz always happens as a consequence of combination between outer disturbance and resonant frequency of SC cavity. In this paper, we will show the design layout of SSR2 and its specifications. And also the mechanical resonance analysis for both bare and dressed cavity will be analyzed with numerical analysis program.
