MC1: SRF Facilities

Invited Oral Presentation

IMP is currently constructing three major SRF linacs: the High Intensity Heavy Ion Accelerator (HIAF), the China Initiative Accelerator Driven System (CiADS), and the Isotope Platform based on a high current superconducting linac (IP-SAFE), and operating one superconducting linac for Super Heavy Elements (CAFE2). This talk will report recent progress of these projects with emphasis on SRF...

Invited Oral Presentation

The European XFEL is in operation since 2017 with a maximum energy of 17.5 GeV in short-pulse (SP) mode, consisting of 0.65 ms-long bunch trains at 10 Hz repetition rate. The accelerator can deliver up to 2700 electron bunches every 100 ms, with a spacing between bunches of 220 ns. After eight years of successful operation the accelerator team, with strong support from the XFEL strategy...

Invited Oral Presentation

The China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is the fourth pulsed accelerator-driven neutron source in the world. Meanwhile, it is one of the core large-scale scientific facilities of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Comprehensive National Science Center. The planned China Spallation Neutron Source Phase II (CSNS-II) started construction in 2024 and is scheduled to be completed in...

26. Studies of in-situ baking of SRF niobium cavities without a furnace at HZB (TUA04)

MC2: Fundamental SRF research and development

Invited Oral Presentation

A specialized setup was designed to carry on a mid-T baking of SRF niobium cavities. It utilizes resistive heaters installed on the outer cavity walls, with a cryostat serving as a vacuum vessel. Based on our material studies with the real-time in-situ synchrotron XPS, a single-cell 1.3 GHz cavity was thermally treated in the regime providing contamination-free oxygen doping of niobium. RF...

102. Enhancement of medium-temperature heat-treated SRF cavities for high quality and high gradient (TUA05)

MC2: Fundamental SRF research and development

Invited Oral Presentation

The heat treatment of SRF cavities at medium temperature (250 °C to 350 °C), also known as “mid-T heat treatment”, is one of the R&D activities at DESY towards a high-duty-cycle (HDC) upgrade of the European XFEL. Such treated cavities exhibit an improvement in the quality factor Q0 (3E10 to 5E10) at a moderate accelerating electric field strength Eacc (10 MV/m to 20 MV/m) compared to EuXFEL...

72. SIS multilayer studies and status of the new cavity-coating system at University of Hamburg (TUA06)

MC2: Fundamental SRF research and development

Invited Oral Presentation

Theories predict that Superconducting-Insulating-Superconducting (SIS) multilayers delay vortex penetration allowing for operation gradients more than twice of bulk Nb cavities and significantly higher Q-values [1]. The University of Hamburg focuses on Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) as the most promising technique to coat SIS multilayers. A proof-of-principle experiment to coat cavities with an...
