  A magnetic flux expulsion lens (MFEL) has been designed and built at CERN. This device uses closed topology conduction cooling of samples to quantify magnetic flux expulsion of superconductors, and allows for systematic measurements of the cooling dynamics and the magnetic response during the superconducting transition. Measurements for bulk Nb, cold worked Nb, sputtered Nb on Cu, and SIS multilayer structures are given. Preliminary results for both sample characterization of expulsion dynamics, and observation of an enhanced flux expulsion in SIS samples are also reported.

  In the context of the R&D program on Nb/Cu carried out at CERN, a total of 25 tests have been performed since 2021. This talk will present these results. Three different manufacturing techniques have been used to produce the copper substrates, in order to investigate which is the most suitable in terms of quality and economy of scale. On one hand, the focus has been on optimizing the surface resistance at 4.2K, as this will be the operating temperature of FCC. The results at this temperature are encouraging, showing repeatable and optimized RF performance. On the other hand, RF tests have been done at 1.85 K too aiming at deepening the knowledge of the mechanisms behind the Q slope. This is key to work on the mitigation of this phenomenon and ultimately to extend the application of this technology to high energy, high gradient accelerators. The influence of the thermal cycles has been thoroughly investigated. A systematic improvement has been observed of both the Q slope and the residual resistance with slow thermal cycles.
