The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

As SCRF particle accelerator technology advances the need for "low particulate" and "particle free" vacuum systems becomes greater and greater. In the course of the operation of these systems, there comes a time when various instruments have to be temporarily attached for diagnostic purposes: RGAs, leak detectors, and additional pumps. In an effort to make the additions of these instruments easier and more time effective, we propose to use KF style flanges for these types of temporary diagnostic connections. This document will describe the tests used to compare the particles generated using the assembly of the, widely accepted for "particle free" use, conflat flange to the proposed KF style flange, and demonstrate that KF flanges produce comparable or even less particles.
