MOBA04	High-Q Operation of SRF Cavities: The Impact of Thermocurrents on the RF Surface Resistance	37
	J.M. Köszegi, J. Knobloch, O. Kugeler HZB, Berlin, Germany
	For CW applications much effort is being expended to minimize the power dissipation (surface resistance) of niobium cavities. Previous studies have shown that residual resistance can be reduced by performing a thermal cycle, a procedure of warming up a cavity after initial cooldown to about 20K and cooling it down again. It was postulated that thermocurrents during cooldown generate additional trapped magnetic flux that impacts the cavity quality factor. Here, we present a more extensive study that includes measurements of two additional passband modes and that confirms the effect. A change in surface resistance of more than a factor seven was observed. In this paper, we also discuss simulations that support the claim. While the layout of the cavity LHe tank system is cylindrically symmetric, we show that the temperature dependence of the material parameters results in a non-symmetric current distribution.

	An N-doped TESLA type cavity treated at FERMILAB has been tested in the HoBiCaT horizontal test stand. Temperatures and magnetic fields occuring during the superconducting transition were recorded at various positions and directions on the outer cavity surface. Several thermal cycling runs were performed yielding different Q0 factors just like in undoped cavities. The resulting residual and BCS resistance values were correlated to the thermal and magnetic conditions during cooldown.

TUPB067	Design and First Measurements of an Alternative Calorimetry Chamber for the HZB Quadrupole Resonator	739

	Funding: The work is part of EuCARD-2, partly funded by the European Commission, GA 312453. The systematic research on superconducting thin films requires dedicated testing equipment. The Quadrupole Resonator (QPR) is a specialized tool to characterize the superconducting properties of circular samples. A calorimetric measurement of the RF surface losses allows the surface resistance to be measured with sub nano-ohm resolution. This measurement can be performed over a wide temperature and magnetic field range, at frequencies of 433, 866 and 1300 MHz. The system at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) is based on a resonator built at CERN and has been optimized to lower peak electric fields and an improved resolution. An alternative calorimetry chamber has been designed in order to provide flat samples for coating and to ease changing of samples. Furthermore it enables exchangeability of samples between the QPRs at HZB and CERN. With this poster the design and first measurements of the new calorimetry chamber is presented.

WEA1A04	Commissioning Results of the HZB Quadrupole Resonator	930

	Funding: The research leading to these results has received funding from the European Commission under the FP7 Research Infrastructures project EuCARD-2, grant agreement no.312453 Recent cavity results with niobium have demonstrated the necessity of a good understanding of both the BCS and residual resistance. For a complete picture, and comparison with theory, it is essential that one can measure the RF properties as a function of applied magnetic field, temperature, frequency and ambient magnetic field. Standard cavity measurements are limited in their ability to change all parameters freely and in a controlled manner. On the other hand, most sample measurement setups operate at fairly high frequency, where the surface resistance is always BCS dominated. The quadrupole resonator, originally developed at CERN, is ideally suited for RF characterization of samples at frequencies of 400 and 1300 MHz, between which many of today’s SRF cavities operate. We report on a modified version of the QPR with improved RF figures of merit for high-field operation. Experimental challenges in the commissioning run and alternate designs towards a simpler sample change are shown alongside measurement results of a large grain niobium sample.
