First welded DQW series cavity for HL-LHC
First welded DQW series cavity for HL-LHC By Thomas Demaziere and Alejandro Castilla, on behalf of WP4 On 11th February, the first of the HL-series Double Quarter Wave (DQW) cavity was welded, with a frequency close to expectations. Once the last sheet metal forming and machining steps were performed on the cavity parts with outstanding precision,
