Abstract :
An inexpensive all metal flange seal has been developed for the all aluminum Aladdin RF accelerating cavity that couples up to stainless steel beam transport lines without using aluminum-stainless steel bonded materials. The seal is capable of at least 10-9 Torr without detectable leakage and can be baked out at temperatures of at least 300°C. It utilizes commercially available sealing rings and slightly modfied Varian CFF flange components.
