Toward Optimization of Centrifugal Barrel Polishing P rocedure for Treatment of Niobium Cavities

Centrifugal barrel polishing (CBP) is a simple and environmentally friendly method that can be applied for mechanical abrasion of the cavity interior in order to remove the mechanically damaged surface after its production. The CBP recipes described in the literature, however, require CBP to be performed in many stages, require long processing times and nevertheless are unable to provide good cavi...
