“…The SC option for an RFQ is not easy to pursue due to hard-to-achieve machining tolerance requirements, large size and mechanical stability problems of the final cavity, as well as cavity cost. In one case, however, superconducting RFQs have been successfully developed and operated [51].…”

Acceleration of low- and medium-β heavy ions by means of superconducting (SC) linear accelerators (linacs) was made possible by the development, during four decades, of a particular class of cavities characterized by low operation frequency, several different shapes and different electromagnetic modes of operation. Their performance, initially rather poor in operating accelerators, have steadily increased along with the technological progress and nowadays the gap with the high-β, elliptical cavities is close to be filled. Initially confined to a very small number of applications, this family of cavities evolved in many directions becoming one of the most widespread in linacs. Nowadays it is present in the majority of superconducting radio-frequency ion linac projects worldwide. An overview of low- and medium-β SC cavities for heavy ions, focused on their recent evolution and achievements, will be given.

“…All of them are based on QWRs. Two still include SRRs [110] and one includes SC RFQs [51]. Most of the operating machines are based on full Nb resonators technology, while three make use of sputtered NbCu cavities [78,79,111]; one includes QWRs with parts made of explosive-bonded Nb on Cu [31].…”
