Abstract :
TRIUMF is proceeding with a major upgrade to the ISAC project, ISAC-II, that includes the addition of 43 MV of heavy ion superconducting linear accelerator and an ECR charge state booster. An initial installation of 18 MV of mid beta cavities (β = 5.8%, 7.1%) is due for commissioning in 2005. The paper will describe the superconducting linac program at TRIUMF including the status of the production cavities, the design of the medium beta cryomodule and a summary of the activities of the SCRF laboratory.
