Measurement of the high-field Q drop in the TM_{010} and TE_{011} modes in a niobium cavity

In the last few years superconducting radio-frequency (rf) cavities made of high-purity (residual resistivity ratio>200) niobium achieved accelerating gradients close to the theoretical limits. An obstacle towards achieving reproducibly higher fields is represented by “anomalous” losses causing a...
