Description
This talk will present the status for developing high gradient X-band bulk niobium accelerating cavities. We optimized the cavity design to maximize the shunt impedance and reduce the peak surface magnetic fields. This means that a much higher gradient can be produced for the same quench field limit of niobium (230 mT), increasing the power loss to gradient2 ratio > 100 [mWm/(MV)^2]. We provide an update on the status of testing X-band superconducting high gradient structures, in conjunction with our ongoing material science testing at cryogenic temperatures to develop accelerating structures and other high power rf components.
