16. Qualification of Nb Materials for SCRF Cavity Fabrication All cavities fabricated in the same way do not give high gradients and cavity gradients are often way below theoretical maximum ~ 55 MV/m Usual approach is to use high residual resistivity ratio (RRR) for qualification of Nb material for SCRF cavities. However it is found that superconducting properties of Nb may get adversely affected during fabrication and processing of the cavities (e.g. BCP) Devised a different qualification scheme in terms of superconducting critical field and surface conductivity An implication of this qualification scheme is the possibility that use of moderate RRR Nb material may provide high gradients in SCRF cavities [S. B. Roy et al. Superconducting Science and Technology 21, 65002 (2008) and 22, 105014 (2009)]

42. Bead-pull measurement -- special technique adopted Using Phase-shift technique instead of frequency-shift In manufacturing or tuning multi-cell cavity, it is required to investigate the field profile inside the cavity The Field can be sampled by introducing a perturbing object and measuring its change in f 0 The object must be very small so that the field does not vary significantly over its largest linear dimension: it is a perturbation method Phase deviation is much easier to observe than frequency change especially for small perturbation.
