| contents | This Brief Note explores the relationship between residual resistivity ratio (RRR) and the maximum surface magnetic field in superconducting bulk niobium (Nb) cavities. Data from the 1980s to 2020s, covering RRR values from 30 to 500, are compared with theoretical performance limits, including the lower critical field (Bc1), superheating field (Bsh), and thermal runaway field (Brun). The results show that modern Nb cavities are approaching Brun and the metastability region above Bc1 across the entire RRR range but remain below the fundamental limit at Bsh. Achieving Bsh requires not only advanced high-gradient surface processing but also improved thermal stability with low surface resistance, ultra-pure Nb, and optimized Kapitza conductance to ensure Brun > Bsh. |
