| Superconducting Cavity How1 #722783 Schematically, metallic tubes connected to a very powerful electric energy generator which contain the intense electric fields that accelerate beams. While the cavities originally used ordinary conducting materials (e.g. copper), new cavities have been designed with supraconducting materials which offer no electric resistance but require very low temperature cooling systems for the supraconducting effects of the materials to manifest. |
