«Essentially what they're doing is using hot plasma to burn off the hydrocarbons on and just below the surfaces [inside the niobium cavities].
Jones explained that over the years trace amounts of hydrocarbon contamination builds up inside the niobium cavities, lessening their ability to sustain high electrical fields, and thus decreasing the beam's potential energy.
This is an illustration of an electron beam traveling through a niobium cavity — a key component of SLAC's future LCLS - II X-ray laser.
Inside each cryomodule are 3 - 4 niobium cavity strings, accordion - like components bathed in liquid helium that keeps the cavities cold to aid in generating very strong electrical fields that drive the beam's acceleration.
