TI - Development of Superconducting Nb for Accelerator Structures at Stanford University: 1966 -1979 J2 - Proc. of SRF2023, Grand Rapids, MI, USA, 25-30 June 2023 CY - Grand Rapids, MI, USA T2 - International Conference on RF Superconductivity T3 - 21 LA - english AB - This talk will start with a brief discussion of why superconducting Nb was of interest for particle accelerator structures. The results of the first Nb cavities that achieved high Q₀¿s up to 10¹¹ and peak electric and magnetic fields of 70 MV/m and 1080 Oe will be described. Then the approach to producing L-band and S-band prototype TM010 mode cavities and accelerator structures will be described, followed by summary results and what was learned from the tests on these cavities and structures. Finally, electron-field-emission loading and electron multipacting experiments and their results will be described. PB - JACoW Publishing CP - Geneva, Switzerland ER -
