The LHC RF cryomodule "Asia" suffered an accidental influx of about 0.5 l of tunnel air during the leak checks of the pumping manifolds. The resulting risk of particle contamination was difficult to assess, and could not be excluded with certainty. [...]

The LHC accelerating RF system consists of two cryomodules per beam, each containing four single-cell niobium sputtered 400.8 MHz superconducting cavities working at 4.5 K and an average accelerating voltage of 2 MV. The paper summarises the experience, availability and evolution of the system within 10 years of operation. [...]

Lab.) ; Burt, Graeme (Lancaster U.) ; Calaga, Rama (CERN) ; Capatina, Ofelia (CERN) ; Dr Schirm, Karl-Martin (CERN) ; Hernández-Chahín, Karim (CERN ; Mexico, ININ) ; Macpherson, Alick (CERN) ; Mitchell, James (Lancaster U.) ; Shipman, Nicholas (Lancaster U. ; U. Manchester (main) ; CERN) et al.
As part of the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) project strategy, crab cavity correctors shall be installed around CMS and ATLAS experiments of the LHC. To accommodate the different crossing angle planes, two distinct cavity designs have been selected: the RF Dipole (RFD) and the Double Quarter Wave resonator (DQW). [...]

Thermal Mapping of SRF Cavities by Second Sound Detection With Transition Edge Sensors and Oscillating Superleak Transducers
/ Vandoni, Giovanna (CERN) ; Furci, Hernan (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Koettig, Torsten (CERN) ; Macpherson, Alick (CERN) ; Turaj, Katarzyna (CERN) ; Vega Cid, Lorena (CERN)
The SRF cavity testing facilities at CERN include four vertical cryostat stations in SM18 and a cryostat for small cavities in the Cryolab. A large range of structures are tested, from Nb thin film cavities for HIE-Isolde and LHC, to bulk Nb crab cavities for HiLumi or 704 MHz 5-cell high-gradient cavities. [...]
