The path to high Q-factors in superconducting accelerating cavities| Flux expulsion and surface resistance optimization

<p> Accelerating cavities are devices resonating in the radio-frequency (RF) range used to accelerate charged particles in accelerators. Superconducting accelerating cavities are made out of niobium and operate at the liquid helium temperature. Even if superconducting, these resonating structu...
