SRF cavities for particle acceleration are conventionally operated immersed in a bath of liquid helium at 4.2 K and below. Although this cooling configuration is practically and economically viable for large scientific accelerator installations, it may not be so for smaller accelerators intended for industrial applications such as the treatment of wastewater, sludge, flue gases, etc. In this paper, we describe a procedure to operate SRF cavities without liquid helium that can be used to construct electron-beam sources for industrial applications of electron irradiation (1-10 MeV electron energy). In this procedure, an elliptical single-cell 650 MHz niobium-tin coated niobium cavity is coupled to a closed-cycle 4 K cryocooler using high purity aluminum thermal links. The cryocooler conductively extracts heat (RF dissipation) from the cavity without requiring liquid helium around the cavity. We present construction details of this cryocooler conduction-cooling technique and systematic experiments that have demonstrated ~10 MV/m cw gradient on the cavity. By straightforward scaling up the cavity length and number of cryocoolers, the technique will provide the complete range of 1-10 MeV electron energy for industrial applications.
We demonstrate practical accelerating gradients on a superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) accelerator cavity with cryocooler conduction cooling, a cooling technique that does not involve the complexities of the conventional liquid helium bath. A desi
High-repetition-rate sources of bright electron bunches have a wide range of applications. They can directly be employed as probes in electron-scattering setups, or serve as a backbone for the generation of radiation over a broad range of the electro
The technique of current splitting is presented as part of an integrated circuit development for an X-ray imager. This method enables integration of charge signals of unprecedented magnitude in small pixels, achieving a dynamic range of ${10^5}$. Res

Reported here is the first demonstration of electron beam generation in an SRF TESLA 1.3 GHz gun equipped with field emission cathode when operated at 2 Kelvin. The cathode is submicron film of nitrogen-incorporated ultrananocrystalline diamond [(N)U
