Chemical polishing of surfaces of Nb RF cavities is an important part of cavity fabrication process. Because of the dangerous nature of the chemicals involved in the process, safety considerations require careful design of the facility and of the process. This report describes the major features of the facility prototype at FNAL and a description of the process and the control systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
