RF cavities used in modern particle accelerators operate in TM$_{m10}$-like modes composed of a single, dominant multipole of order $m$; $m=0$ modes are used for the longitudinal acceleration of a particle beam and $m\neq0$ modes for…
Niobium-based Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) cavity performance is sensitive to localized defects that give rise to quenches at high accelerating gradients. In order to identify these material defects on bulk Nb surfaces at their…
