  A high-sensitive temperature mapping system for multi-cell SRF cavities has been constructed at Cornell University. The resolution of the system is 1mK. Hence it’s able to detect small temperature increases when cavities reach at low accelerating gradients e.g. 3MV/m. The surface resistivity of superconductor under radio-frequency electromagnetic field can be calculated from the temperature increases. In this contribution, the surface resistance map of multi-cell SRF cavities is shown. The temperature mapping result is possible to establish a relationship between the surface resistivity and the magnetic field as well. Unlike the RF method which is average value of the surface resistance, the T-map results give local surface resistivity versus magnetic field. BCS theory assumes the surface resistivity is independent to the magnetic field. The T-map results, however, suggest that the surface resistance at high-loss region is field dependent and caused Q-slope.

Future SRF linac driven accelerators operated in CW mode will require very efficient SRF cavities with high intrinsic quality factors Q at medium accelerating fields. Cornell has recently finished testing the fully equipped 1.3 GHz, 7-cell main linac cavity for the Cornell Energy Recovery Linac in a horizontal test cryomodule (HTC). Measurements characterizing the fundamental mode’s quality factor have been completed, showing record Q performance. In this paper, we present detailed quality factor vs gradient results for three HTC assembly stages. We show that the performance of an SRF cavity can be maintained when installed into a cryomodule, and that thermal cycling reduces residual surface resistance. We present world record results for a fully equipped multicell cavity in a cryomodule, reaching intrinsic quality factors at operating accelerating field of Q(E =16.2 MV/m, 1.8K) > 6·1010 and Q(E =16.2 MV/m, 1.6K) > 1.0·1011, corresponding to a very low residual surface resistance of 1.1 nOhm.

Recent results from FNAL on baking superconducting RF cavities at high temperatures in a low-pressure atmosphere of a few mTorr indicate that such treatments can increase the medium field quality factor. In this paper we report on studies from Cornell, giving new insight into the mechanism behind this effect.

  Cornell's SRF group have been led development of Vertical Electro-Polishing(VEP) on SRF Nb Cavity. We have done many VEP on singel-/multi-cell cavities. We also have started VEP'ed Nb coupon surface analysis based on surface roughness measurement. In this report, we will describe our status of VEP R&D, the results of VEP'ed cavity vertical testing, and fundamental study on VEP using Nb coupons.

One of the most important properties of Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) cavities is their ability to disperse generated heat from the internal cavity wall to the external super fluid helium bath. When the generated heat is not removed fast enough, an effect known as thermal feedback dominates, resulting in medium field Q-slope. This medium field Q-slope has the ability to reduce the Q factor should it become strong enough. To determine what physical factors affect the creation of the medium field Q-slope we will be computationally modeling the medium field Q-slope with varying parameters, such as Kapitza conductivity, wall thickness, RF frequency, bath temperature, residual resistivity ratio, residual resistance, and phonon mean path. Our results show that the medium-field Q slope is highly dependent on the Kapitza conductivity and that by doubling the Kapitza conductivity the medium field Q-slope reduces significantly. Understanding and controlling the medium field Q-slope will benefit future continuous wave (CW) applications such as the Energy Recovery Linacs (ERL) where cryogenics costs dominate due to CW operation at medium fields (< 20 MV/m).

  While SRF research for linear colliders was focused on achieving high gradients, Cornell’s proposal for an energy recovery linac (ERL) demanded for low cw losses. Starting several years ago, a high-Q R&D phase was launched that led to remarkable results recently: A fully dressed cavity (7 cells, 1.3 GHz) with side-mounted input coupler and beamline HOM absorbers achieved a Q of 3.5·1010 ((16 MV/m, 1.8 K). This talk will review the staged approach we have chosen in testing a single cavity in a horizontal short cryomodule (HTC), report results on each step and conclude on our findings about preserving high Q from vertical testing. We also discuss the production of six additional cavities as we progress toward constructing a full 6-cavity cryomodule as a prototype for Cornell’s main linac module

  The phase 1 R&D program launched in preparation to building a 5 GeV Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) at Cornell, a full main linac cryomodule is currently built, housing six 7-cell cavities. In order to control the beam break-up limit, the shape of the cavity was highly optimized and stringent tolerances on the cavity production were targeted. We will report on the details of the cavity production, the accuracy of the cups forming the individual cells, the trimming procedure for the dumbbells, the cavity tuning and final accuracy of the cavity concerning field flatness, resonant frequency and overall length within this small series production.

  We have been investigated 1.3GHz high gradient SRF Nb cavity with shape of low Hpk/Eacc, such as re-entrant(RE) and KEK low-loss (ICHIRO) shapes. We have single-/multi-cell RE cavities and ICHIRO single-cell cavities at Cornell. We have processed those cavities based on buffered chemical-polishing(BCP), vertical electro-polishing(VEP), and centrifugal barrel-polsihing(CBP). In this paper, we will report the details of processes and the results of vertical tests of these cavities.
