Measurement of Thermal Conductivity of High-Temperature Superconducting Tapes under Cryogenic Conditions / Wuestner, Luis Alexander (Universitaet Stuttgart (DE))
In high-energy particle accelerators such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, reducing the secondary electron yield (SEY) of the beam screen is becoming increas-ingly important, as electron cloud formation caused by synchrotron radiation can affect beam stability and increase the cryogenic load. One promising solution is to coat the beam screen with high temperature superconducting (HTS) materials such as rare earth barium copper oxide (ReBCO), which is characterized by inherently low SEY and high radiation tolerance.
