Field of first magnetic flux entry and pinning strength of superconductors for rf application measured with muon spin rotation

The performance of superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) cavities used for particle accelerators depends on two characteristic material parameters: field of first flux entry H_{entry} and pinning strength. The former sets the limit for the maximum achievable accelerating gradient, while the latter de...
