  Multi-cell temperature mapping (T-map) system has been developed and applied on SRF Nb cavities vertical tests (VT) at Cornell. It has nearly two thousand thermometers and achieved a 1mK resolution of niobium surface temperature rinsing in superfluid helium . We have upgraded the system to be capable of monitoring the temperature profiles of quench spot on cavity. The recent results of T-map during cavity tests and details will be reported.

  Quench location detection has provided valuable insight in SRF cavity operation since two decades. While in earlier days temperature maps were used the state of the art technique nowadays is detecting the second sound wave, excited by a quench, using oscillating super-leak detector (OSTs). Typically, many OSTs surround the cavity and the quench location is determined by triangulation of the different OST signals. Convenient as the method is there is a mystery: taking the well-known velocity of the second sound wave, the quench seems to come from a place slightly above the cavity’s outer surface. In addition, not all triangulation spheres intersect in one point. We will present a model based on numerical quench propagation simulations that is able to fully explaining this discrepancy.
