SRF cavities

Researchers at the Illinois Accelerator Research Center at Fermilab have developed powerful, compact, and mobile electron accelerators powered by SRF technologies. A compact SRF accelerator
is a cost-effective, compact version that will enable novel applications.

The labs are developing a practical approach to reduce the size and cost of superconducting linear accelerators, which offer great potential for addressing used nuclear fuel, while also improving their reliability.
