Uppsala University is upgrading its FREIA Laboratory, initially constructed for the ESS project, to test superconducting magnets and crab cavities for the HL-LHC

A team from the Vacuum, Surfaces and Coatings group is studying a method of niobium coating by sputtering for use in future accelerators

In the first of our series of articles on work done during LS2, we focus on the second link in the accelerator chain, the PS Booster

Tests carried out in 2018 on two crab cavities in the SPS validated their technical principle and many operating parameters

CERN successfully tests crab cavities, a key component of the High-Luminosity LHC

The two crab cavities have been put in their helium vessels and are currently being installed in their cryostat

On the occasion of the EUCAS 2017 conference, superconducting magnets and cavities were turned into musical instruments
