Title :
R&D in RF superconductivity to support the international linear collider
Author_Institution :
DESY, Hamburg
Abstract :
The R&D in on superconducting radiofrequency technology for the international linear collider (ILC) spans a broad range of topics, ranging from the search for high gradients through improved processes, new cavity geometries as well as the use of new materials (large- grain and single-crystal niobium metal). Besides these alternatives R&D paths, a large part of the baseline design for the ILC baseline is being going through an industrialisation effort in the framework of the European XFEL project. This paper talk will review the status of the global ILC SRF R&D program and discuss plans for the future.
