We present the calculations for electromagnetic design of a Betag = 0.61, multi-cell superconducting radiofrequency cavity for the Indian Spallation Neutron Source (ISNS) project. Geometry of the mid-cells is optimized using a step by step, one-dimensional optimization technique. This is followed by the optimization of end-cells, which is done to achieve the required field flatness, as well as to avoid trapping of higher order modes. Calculations of the threshold beam current for the excitation of regenerative beam break up instability excited by the dipole modes is also presented, which is followed by wake field calculations and estimation of its effects. Specific aspects relevant to design calculations for medium Betag cavities, compared to high Betag cavities are highlighted in the paper. Finally, studies are performed for the static as well as dynamic Lorentz Force Detuning (LFD), based on which the stiffness design of the cavity is optimized.
