Description
A collaboration project between Instituto de Ciencia de Materiales de Barcelona-CSIC (“ICMAB”), Institut de Física d’Altes Energies (“IFAE”), ALBA Synchrotron Light source (“ALBA) and CERN has been established in order to obtain physical results to evaluate the use of Coated Conductors (CC) tapes as elements for the beam screen for FCC-hh based on its expected low surface impedance and high superconducting properties. The project aims to generate knowledge on the RF surface impedance of high temperature superconducting-CC (HTS-CC) irradiated by synchrotron light at high fields, and at intermediate temperatures (40-60 K). Also, studies and prototypes will be performed in order to find an adequate way of incorporating the CC in the beam-screen design. First initial investigations will be presented.
