  The AMTF (Accelerator Module Test Facility) in DESY was built for the tests of all superconducting cavities and cryomodules for the EuXFEL linac. After successful commissioning of the EuXFEL, the AMTF has been adapted in order to perform SRF (super conducting radio frequency) measurements of cavities and accelerating modules for different projects. Several SRF cavities related projects are still ongoing, while other were just finished. Some of those projects are dedicated to test components for the infrastructure of accelerators which are under construction, while the other ones are devoted to new R&D paths aiming for cavities and modules with high performance which are under investigation at DESY. This paper describes present activities performed at AMTF with special emphasis on performing SRF measurements for the ongoing cavities production. Most of the presented data is related to vertical cryostat cavity testing. However, some data about cryomodules and a new coupler test stand will be shown as well. Detailed statistics about the number of vertical tests performed within the last two years are also presented.

Medium temperature (mid-T) heat treatments at 300 °C are used to enhance the intrinsic quality factor of superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities. Unfortunately, such treatments potentially increase the sensitivity to trapped magnetic flux and consequently the surface resistance of the cavity. For this reason, it is crucial to maximize the expulsion of magnetic flux during the cool down. The flux expulsion behavior is next to the heat treatment mainly determined by the geometry, the niobium grain size and the grain orientation. However, it is also affected by parameters of the cavity performance tests like the cool down velocity, the spatial temperature gradient along the cavity surface and the magnetic flux density during the transition of the critical temperature. To improve the flux expulsion behavior and hence the efficiency of future accelerator facilities, the impact of these adjustable parameters as well as the mid-T heat treatment on 1.3 GHz TESLA-Type single-cell cavities is investigated by a new approach of a magnetometric mapping system. In this contribution first performance test results of cavities before- and after mid-T heat treatment are presented.

  During the construction of the European-XFEL, activities related to Fundamental Power Couplers (FPCs) were outsourced to external partners and the former FPC test-stand area at DESY was given up due to infrastructure rearrangements. For the study of various XFEL upgrade scenarios a new test-stand for conditioning of FPCs at DESY is required. It will be used for evaluation of new coupler preparation methods with particular emphasis on Continuous Wave (CW) and long RF pulse operation. The new test-stand has been recently commissioned. Four FPCs have been prepared and tested. RF pulses were applied to the couplers, starting with the shortest possible pulse and increasing it’s power until maximum power was reached. The process was repeated with several pulse lengths until the maximum RF pulse length was reached. A review of the commissioning and first operation experience of the RF system are presented here.
