The plan to fit Stanford’s 20‐GeV electron linac with superconducting cavities has been dropped, and a new proposal to upgrade performance has been submitted to the AEC. SLAC director Wolfgang Panofsky told us that at present a complete conversion to superconducting cavities would be noncompetitive, both in terms of time and money.
