Abstract
Recently we tested the first two cryomodules for FRIB, which contain β = 0.085 superconducting quarter-wave resonators and superconducting solenoid packages. Their performance was successfully validated under realistic conditions. This paper reports the solenoid package tests results.

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is under construction on the campus of Michigan State University (MSU) [1]. It is a joint project supported by the US Department of Energy and MSU for cutting-edge research in nuclear physics. FRIB requires a 200 MeV per nucleon driver linac with a total of 332 superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities of 4 different types: β = 0.041 quarter wave resonators (QWRs, 12 cavities), β = 0.085 QWRs (100 cavities), β = 0.29 half wave resonators (HWRs, 72 cavities) and β = 0.53 HWRs (148 cavities). The cavities are housed in a total of 48 cryomodules, including 4 matching cryomodules [2]. The construction started in early 2014 and is expected to be completed in 2022. ∗ Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science under Cooperative Agreement DE-SC0000661, the State of Michigan and Michigan State University. † [email protected]
