Magnetic shield products are manufactured through specialized processes, including heat treatment and performance testing of DC magnetic shielding. By May 2018, all of the magnetic shields for the SRF of the FRIB were completed and passed performance tests at room temperature in our factory. Those products are made of mu-metal, a nickel-iron alloy, instead of from an alloy for cryogenic...
Magnetic field management for SRF cavities has grown in importance with recent projects desiring greater Q, implying smaller magnetic fields at the cavities. This requires cryomodules and facilities to be designed with additional measures, such as global and/or local passive magnetic shielding as well as active methods to reduce fields. I will provide a summary of these techniques as applied...
Measurements of the efficiency of the magnetic shield have been carried out for the ESS Spoke cavities. The magnetic shield is made of Cryophy, a Nickel-Iron alloy, and is mounted around the Double-Spoke cavity. It is composed of two 1mm-thick layers, actively cooled by cryogenic circuit (LHe @ 4K). The installation of a mock-up cavity in the prototype cryomodule (made of stainless steel) gave...
