USPAS - SRF Technology: Practices and Hands-on Measurements

Monday Jan 19, 2015, 8:00 AM → 10:00 PM US/Eastern

Jefferson Lab

The US Particle Accelerator School was hosted by Old Dominion University 19-30 January 2015. Taking advantage of proximity, the first of its kind "SRF Technology: Practices and Hands-on Measurements" course was offered and organized at nearby Jefferson Lab.

• The core of the course consisted of eight 5-hour hands-on labs, through which the students rotated in groups of four.
  • Cleanroom - Chemroom - Cavity testing - HOM measurements - Beadpull measurements - Microphonics, warm - Cryomodule rf measurements - Cryomodule microphonics measurements
• Thorough preparatory safety training and a set of 18 1-hour lectures were also provided. Copies of the lectures are posted here.
