Abstract

The C-ADS accelerator is a CW (Continuous-Wave) proton linac with 1.5 GeV in beam energy, 10 mA in beam current, and 15 MW in beam power. C-ADS Injector-I accelerator is a 10-mA 10-MeV CW proton linac, which uses a 3.2-MeV normal conducting 4-Vane RFQ and superconducting single-spoke cavities for accelerating. The frequency of RFQ accelerator is 325 MHz. The test stand composed of an ECR ion source, LEBT, RFQ, MEBT and beam dump have been installed and the first stage of beam commissioning have been finished at IHEP in 2014 mid-year. At 90% duty factor, we got 11 mA proton beam at RFQ exit with 90% beam transmission efficiency, while 95% beam transmission efficiency at 70% duty factor. The energy after RFQ was measured by TOF method with FCTs. The transverse emittance measured by double-slits emittance meter was 0.135 π mm-mrad, which of detailed data analysis will be presented in this paper.
