Description

We have started research and development of a 4K niobium-tin superconducting RF (SRF) electron accelerator system for radioisotope (RI) production. The niobium-tin superconducting RF electron linac can be operated with the compact conduction cooling system without liquid helium and large-scale equipment. The cavity-cryocooler thermal link needs a careful design as its thermal conductance will control the temperatures of the cavity and the cryocooler. As the first step of our research, S-band Nb3Sn superconducting cavities and its conduction cooling system are developed, and their performance will be demonstrated. Beam acceleration experiments using those niobium-tin superconducting cavities are planned at the test accelerator at Tohoku University. The status of the niobium-tin superconducting cavity development will be reported at this conference.
