  The funding scenario seems to improve based on the capability of a laboratory to generate technology that can be transferred to industry, in particular if the technology is of public interest. New research projects may benefit if the technology transfer is considered as an integral part of the project itself. The drawback could be that revenue generated by a successful technology transfer may give the impression that research projects only provide societal benefit by direct transfer through closed protocols. This paper provides an overview of different technology transfer projects worldwide and how different laboratories are dealing with the issue.

  SRF cavities of superconducting linear accelerators in RAON are developed and tested at 2K/4K. 1st Quarter Wave Resonator (QWR) and Half Wave Resonator (HWR) are fabricated by a domestic vender and tested in the TRIUMF's facility. The measured Q factors are above the required values at the operating gradients. And the predicted multipacting phenomena are observed in the test and easily conditioned. The Q factors decreased after a slow cooldown and enhanced at 4K tests by a low temperature baking. Based on these tests, modified bare cavities are newly developed, jacketed and will be tested with tuners and power couplers.

  The ARIEL electron linac produced its first high-energy beam on 31 September 2014. Despite over 40 years of experience with ion beams, transporting electrons constituted a new challenge for TRIUMF. With good reason: the difference in rest mass makes electrons orders of magnitude more sensitive than ions to magnetic fields (for the same kinetic energy). In this paper we show how beam steering could have been seriously compromised by the remament field from the structural steel of the building, and how this issue was addressed using a technique developed to demagnetize steel-hull ships: we degaussed the entire accelerator vault.
