1 EP system development at IHEP
Song JIN 6th IHEP-KEK SCRF Collaboration Meeting, IHEP, July 15th, 2017

2 Introduction EP as a critical technology for SRF cavity surface treatment was widely accepted and developed in the world. High accelerating field, e.g. ILC, XFEL; High Q0 studies, e.g. N-doping cavity for LCLS-II;

3 Effect of EP on 1.3GHz cavities

4 Effect of EP on 650MHz cavities
Recent years, due to N-doping development, the EP results on lower frequency cavity like 650MHz can be found. However, the directly comparing between EP and BCP on lower frequency cavities is not too much. Here, we just take two 650MHz single cavities for example. EP can improve accelerating grandient and Q0 Besides, EP is also critical for N-doping technology. 对于BCP和EP在频率较低超导腔的研究，如650MHz和500MHz超导腔，目 前并不是太多。左图和右图分别为JLab和FermiLab（ANL）650MHz单Cell超导腔 的垂测结果。其中Jlab超导腔为BCP处理，Fermilab超导腔为EP处理。可以看到， 经BCP处理后，JLab的超导腔加速梯度为23MV/m，而EP处理后Fermilab的超导腔 达到了30MV/m以上；在23MV/m时，超导腔的品质因子，则前者为2E10，后者 为3E10。 对于500MHz， KEKB和BEPC II 的超导腔研制的标准流程，均为EP处理。BEPCII 备用腔则采用了BCP。但时间较早，十几年前，所以可比性不太大。 图：红色和绿色曲线为Fermilab（ANL）EP处理过的两支650MHz 单cell超导腔在2K下的结果 图：红色为JLab BCP 处理后的650MHz单cell超导腔的2K下的垂测结果
