Abstract :
A device which is capable to reduce significantly the amplitude of mechanical vibrations in superconducting quarter wave resonators was designed, constructed and tested. This device can eliminate the necessity of fast tuners and related electronics in many superconducting cavities, resulting in a significant cost saving both in the construction and in the operation of superconducting low beta linacs
