| Abstract |
A setup for electropolishing of a superconducting niobium single-cell cavity has been installed at TRIUMF. A vertical method was selected to make the setup compact. To increase removal speed at the equator and remove hydrogen bubbles at the iris surface, 4 cathode paddles were rotated in the cavity cell during electropolishing. We will report on our first electropolishing result.
