Abstract
This paper reports the development of a CW variable coupler for 345 MHz spoke-loaded superconducting (SC) cavities. The coupler inserts an 80 K copper loop into a 5 cm (2 inch) interior diameter coupling port on several types of spoke-loaded cavity operating at 2 K or 4 K. The coupling loop can be moved during operation to vary the coupling over a range of 50 dB. The coupler is designed to facilitate high-pressure water rinsing and low-particulate clean assembly. Design details and operating characteristics are discussed.
