For the past five decades, bulk niobium (Nb) has been the material of choice for
superconducting RF (SRF) cavity applications. Alternatives such as Nb thin films and other …

The performance of superconducting resonators, particularly cavities for particle
accelerators and micro cavities and thin film resonators for quantum computations and …

A microns-thick film of Nb 3 Sn on the inner surface of a superconducting radiofrequency
(SRF) cavity has been demonstrated to substantially improve cryogenic efficiency compared …

This Snowmass 2021 contributed paper discusses a Higgs-Energy LEptoN (HELEN) $ e^+
e^-$ linear collider based on advances superconducting radio frequency technology. The …

Theoretical limits to the performance of superconductors in high magnetic fields parallel to
their surfaces are of key relevance to current and future accelerating cavities, especially …

Many modern and future particle accelerators employ high gradient superconducting RF
(SRF) to generate beams of high energy, high intensity and high brightness for research in …

We report on atomic-scale analyses of grain boundary (GB) structures and segregation in
Nb 3 Sn coatings on Nb, prepared by the vapor-diffusion process, for superconducting …

We use time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau theory to study the nucleation of vortices in type-II
superconductors in the presence of both geometric and material inhomogeneities. The …

We investigate the effects of Dynes pair-breaking scattering rate Γ on the superfluid flow in a
narrow thin-film superconductor and a semi-infinite superconductor by self-consistently …

In this paper we present the discovery of a new surface treatment applied to
superconducting radio frequency (SRF) niobium cavities, leading to unprecedented …
