Abstract The SRF group at TRIUMF has tested samples relevant for SRF application since 2010 using the TRIUMF μSR facility. In this study collaborators at Cornell coat a Nb coin and a Nb ellipsoid sample with Nb3Sn for characterization using μSR at TRIUMF. Field of first flux entry measurements are performed at M20 on both samples. Measurements include the vortex nucleation field Hnucleate and Tc of both Nb3Sn and Nb. Interestingly the Nb3Sn increases the vortex nucleation field at 2K over standard Nb samples.
