| Abstract |
As part of a STFC Industrial Programme Support (IPS) Scheme grant, Daresbury Laboratory and Shakespeare Engineering Ltd have been developing the capability to fabricate, process, and test a 9-cell, 1.3 GHz superconducting RF cavity. The objective of the programme of work is to achieve an accelerating gradient of greater than 20 MV/m at an unloaded quality factor of 1.0 x 10¹⁰ or better. Processes such as the high pressure rinsing and the buffer chemical polishing are being developed at Daresbury Laboratory and the manufacturing of the cavity half cells and beampipes are being optimised by Shakespeare Engineering to enable this target to be achieved. These are discussed in this paper.
