Eric Lechner (Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility)09/07/2024, 09:00Superconducting RFOral presentation (remote)
We generalize a native Nb2O5 dissolution model [G. Ciovati, Appl. Phys. Lett. 89, 022507 (2006)] to sequential overlayer dissolutions, multilayer dissolution, and realistic temperature profiles, which may be applicable to other materials. The model is applied to secondary ion mass spectrometry depth profile measurements for varying temperature profiles and two-step oxide dissolution in Nb and...

Ankur Dhar (SLAC National Accelerator Lab)09/07/2024, 12:20Superconducting RFOral presentation (in person)
SRF materials such as niobium have been extremely useful for accelerator technology but require low temperature operation ~4K. The development of high temperature superconductors (HTS) is promising due to their operating temperatures being closer to that of liquid nitrogen ~77K. This work hopes to determine the high-power RF performance of such materials at X-band (11.424 GHz). We have tested...

Roman Kostin (Euclid Techlabs)10/07/2024, 09:00Superconducting RFOral presentation (in person)
Conventional SRF cavities are used in standing wave regime and are limited by surface fields to ~50 MV/m. In order to overcome this limit, Superconducting Traveling Wave (SCTW) cavity was proposed as it allows to achieve ~1.5 times higher accelerating gradient operating at lower phase advance per cell, thus improving transit time factor. However, power recirculation through a feedback...

Cavities and cryomodules assembled at Fermilab have demonstrated unprecedented field emission (FE) free gradients. However, consistent FE-free performance is not guaranteed. Many lessons were learned, and continued vigilance is a must. In addition, several improvements have been identified to further push the state-of-the-art low particulate cavity processing and assembly at Fermilab. Those...

Camille Cheney (IJCLAB)10/07/2024, 15:00Superconducting RFOral presentation (remote)
Plasma processing stands as an in-situ technique for mitigating field emission and multipacting effects in the long-term operation of superconducting accelerating cavities. While extensively explored and applied to elliptical cavities, its application to quarter-wave resonators (QWRs) represents a relatively recent area of investigation. At IJCLab, ongoing efforts focus on refining plasma...

Since 2017, CEA has been developing the use of collaborative robots (cobot) to carry out the steps required to assemble superconducting cavities strings. This development is based on two main objectives. The first is to reduce the tediousness for operators of certain stages of component cleaning by blowing, so that they can focus on higher value-added tasks. The second is to improve assembly...

Cristian Pira (INFN LNL)10/07/2024, 16:40Superconducting RFOral presentation (remote)
Energy saving is mandatory for new generation linacs and accelerators more generally. Cryogenics is one of the major energy costs in modern SRF accelerators because of the need to lower the operating temperature to 2K. Substituting Nb with a higher critical-temperature superconductor, such as Nb3Sn, allows operations to be moved up to 4.5 K with a reduction in cryogenic costs by a factor of 3....
