The LEP2 Superconducting RF System
The LEP2 superconducting RF system supplies at present about 2600 MV per turn to the electrons and positrons of the LEP beams, giving a beam energy largely above 90 GeV to create the desired massive W ±-pairs for physics. It is by far the largest such system world wide and a further upgrade is still...

| description | The LEP2 superconducting RF system supplies at present about 2600 MV per turn to the electrons and positrons of the LEP beams, giving a beam energy largely above 90 GeV to create the desired massive W ±-pairs for physics. It is by far the largest such system world wide and a further upgrade is still under way to increase the W± production rate and cover new physics grounds. More than 10 MW RF power were routinely transmitted to the beam during last year's smooth operation. We will cover on the technical parts of this system: the cavities, couplers, tuners, cryostats, the cryogenics and the RF ge neration and distribution. We will also report on operational experience and future plans. |
