The GSI High-Current Injector linac for ions with mass to charge ratio
s up to 65 and beam intensities up to 16 mA is under construction and
will deliver beam in 1999. The first section of that linac is a 36 MHz
RFQ cavity with a total length of 9.2 m and an energy range from 2.2
to 120 keV/u. It will be the first RFQ in H-110-mode operation. The ad
vantages of that RF structure for the acceleration of very heavy ion b
eams are outlined. MAFIA calculations are compared with the results fr
om bead pull measurements of the completed cavity. Possible extensions
of that type of RF structure towards a multibeam cavity are discussed
