Commissioning of C-ADS Injector I

As a test facility, the design goal of C-ADS Injector I is a 10mA, 10MeV CW proton linac, which uses a 3.2MeV normal conducting RFQ and superconducting single-spoke cavities for accelerating. The RF frequency of C-ADS Injector I accelerator is 325 MHz. In accordance to the progress of construction and considering the technical difficulties, the beam commissioning of C-ADS Injector I is carried out in 3 phases: Phase 1, with ECRIS + LEBT + RFQ + MEBT + TCM (two superconducting cavities), to reach 3.6 MeV; Phase 2, with ECRIS + LEBT + RFQ + MEBT + CM1 (seven superconducting cavities), to reach 5 MeV; Phase 3, with ECRIS + LEBT + RFQ + MEBT + CM¹⁺ CM2 (same as CM1), to finally achieve the design goal of C-ADS Injector I. This paper summarizes the beam commissioning in 3 phases and focusing on the third phase.
