A multi-laboratory collaboration is studying the feasibility of building a muon collider, first phase which maybe neutrino factory. The space occupied by muons very large and needs to be cooled several orders magnitude for either machine, 100,000 1 million collider ten 100 Ionization cooling base line method cooling. This scheme uses hydrogen absorbers rf re-acceleration in long series magnetic focusing channels cool muons. At Fermilab two cavity types are under study provide required re-acceleration, 805 MHz high gradient 201 currently going cold testing non-periodic pi-mode with iris openings shaped follow contour beam. hollow thin metal tubes over beam aperture terminate field pill-box type mode increase its shunt impedance. possible because have little interactions membranes. Details these cavities measurement data will presented.
