    Worked on a proof of principle experiment for axion dark matter searches. The idea was to use an existing TESLA-shape 1.3GHz single-cell cavity made of niobium, cool it down to 2K in presence of an applied magnetic field, and study the field trapped in the cavity volume, and measure the Q degradation induced by the field trapped in the cavity walls.
