Description

Plasma processing has shown to be an effective tool for removing hydrocarbons built up during the operation of the superconducting cavities. Motivated by the 49 MeV operational energy gain of the four C100 cryomodules at Jefferson Lab, there is an ongoing experimental and simulation study of plasma processing on the C75 cavities. The simulation work is focused on the dynamics of the gas, plasma ignition, and control. In parallel, a program to plasma process C75 cavity pairs and cryomodules is in progress. The recent progress report will be presented in this proceedings.
