Superconducting cavities for particle accelerators: achievements and problems.

Author(s) : BENVENUTI C., CALATRONI S., CHIAVERI E., ORLANDI G., WEINGARTEN W.

Summary

Superconducting radiofrequency accelerating cavities are presently operating on various accelerators world wide. The large majority of these cavities are made of niobium sheet, by lathe spinning and welding. In the case of LEP-2 at CERN, the majority of cavities is made of copper, internally coated with a thin layer of sputtered niobium. The performances of these 2 cavities are critically compared on the grounds of the large industrial production required by the LEP-2 project.
