Exploration of Parameters That Affect High Field Q-Slope
K. Howard, Y. -K. Kim, D. Bafia +1
The onset of high field Q-slope (HFQS) around 25 MV/m prevents cavities in electropolished (EP) condition from reaching high quality factors at high gradients due to the precipitat…

The Collaborative Effects of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Impurities in Low RRR SRF Cavities
K. Howard, Y. -K. Kim, D. Bafia +1
The superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) community has shown that introducing certain impurities into high-purity niobium can improve quality factors and accelerating gradients. W…
