CW SRF Systems with Ingot Niobium and their Applications
CW SRF Systems with Ingot Niobium* and Their Applications Ganapati Myneni ISOHIM/University of Virginia/JLab Continuous wave superconducting radio frequency (SRF) accelerator systems are needed not only for discovery science programs through out the world but they are also expected to find applications in a wide variety of programs including advanced reactor cycles using thorium as nuclear fuel, commercial and university compact linacs and FEL?s. However, these state of the art particle accelerator systems are very expensive to build and consume significant power in their operations. In the present world economic, energy sustainability and global warming concerns, we must improve the efficiency of the CW SRF accelerator systems considerably and in a cost effective manner. In this presentation I will review the current status of the CW SRF systems including the recent advances in improving the quality factor of the SRF cavities at very much reduced costs and possible R&D avenues. *Companhia Brasileira de Metalurgia e Mineração (CBMM) - Jefferson Laboratory Technology
