METHOD FOR DETERMINING A QUALITY FACTOR OF AN ACCELERATING CAVITY OF A PARTICLE ACCELERATOR

摘要

Method for determining a quality factor (QO) of a superconductive cavity (4) accelerating a particle accelerator (1), in particular a linear type particle accelerator, the method comprising the following steps: - a determination of a thermal load (Qdynam) to which a cryomodule (3) is subjected comprising the accelerating cavity (4) and a bath of cryogenic fluid (5), then a determination of a quality factor (QO) based on the determination of the thermal load (Qdynam) during the operation of the particle accelerator.
