Thermal design studies in superconducting rf cavities: Phonon peak and Kapitza conductance

Thermal design studies of superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities involve two thermal parameters, namely the temperature dependent thermal conductivity of Nb at low temperatures and the heat transfer coefficient at the Nb-He II interface, commonly known as the Kapitza conductance. During the...
