Description

We present the results of cryogenic tests on a superconducting half-wave resonator for the acceleration of heavy ions. The resonator was built out of OFHC copper and electroplated with 1.5 μm of Pb without chemical polish of the Pb surface. Measured properties include a low level Q of 4x108 and a power dissipation of 6 W at 4 MV/m giving an energy gain of 1 MV per unit change to a particle of velocity 0.16 c. (orig.)
