MOPCH179 | Design of a New Electropolishing System for SRF Cavities | 484 |
|
||
Electropolishing (EP) is considered the baseline surface treatment for Superconducting RF (SRF) cavities to achieve >35 MV/m accelerating gradient for the International Linear Collider (ILC). Based on the lessons learned at the forerunners such as KEK/Nomura, DESY and JLAB and on the recent studies, we have started a new design of the next EP system that will be installed in the US. This paper presents requirements, specifications, and the detail of the system design as well as the path forward towards the future industrialization. |
