The dependence of cavity quality factor Q0 on acceler- ating gradient gives insight into the intrinsic limit RF surface impedance that determines performance. In this paper we propose a high-precision method measur- ing SRF cavities. A common way to study perfor- mance an is build oscillator around it referred as self-excited loop. standard approach, by tuning loop phase for maximum field level in and measuring forward reflected waves, one finds coupling. Then, performing time-decay mea-...
