	Funding: This work was supported by DOE Contract DE-SC0020409 Cryogenic operation and associated skin effects are encouraging fields of study for increasing RF gradients of beams within cavities and decreasing the required size for linear accelerators such as free electron lasers. Notably, a cavity’s RF quality factor Q, the ratio of the outgoing RF signal power to the input power, is theoretically multiplied by over 4 when subjected to cryogenic temperatures. Precise measurements of this Q factor require defining a cryostat unit, which consists of a high vacuum chamber, a coldhead, and MLI shielding. We optimized the cryostat by running several cool down tests at high vacuum, incorporating different geometries of MLI shielding to achieve the lowest possible temperatures. We then performed a low power C-band test after installing a cylindrical copper RF cavity to measure the Q factor. Finally, we improved stability and amplification within the chamber by installing edge welded bellows to the coldhead to reduce vibrations. These measurements provide a basis for the development of cryogenic infrastructure to sustain a cryogenic temperature environment for future RF applications.

Producing higher brightness beams at the cathode is one of the main focuses for future electron beam applications. For photocathodes operating close to their emission threshold, the cathode lattice temperature begins to dominate the minimum achievable intrinsic emittance. At UCLA, we are designing a radiofrequency (RF) test bed for measuring the temperature dependence of the mean transverse energy (MTE) and quantum efficiency for a number of candidate cathode materials. We intend to quantify the attainable brightness improvements at the cathode from cryogenic operation and establish a proof-of-principle cryogenic RF gun for future studies of a 1.6-cell cryogenic photoinjector for the UCLA ultra compact XFEL concept (UC-XFEL).
