OPTICS IMPLICATIONS OF IMPLEMENTING Nb3Sn MAGNETS IN THE LHC PHASE I UPGRADE*
نویسندگان
چکیده
CERN has encouraged the US-LARP collaboration to participate in Phase I of the LHC luminosity upgrade by analyzing the benefits gained by using Nb3Sn technology to replace the functionality of select NbTi magnets that CERN is committed to construct. Early studies have shown that the much higher gradients (shorter magnetic lengths) and temperature margins (quench stability) of Nb3Sn magnets compared to their NbTi counterparts is favorable -allowing the insertion of additional absorbers between Q1 and Q2, for example. This paper discusses the relative merits of the NbTi and Nb3Sn options.

متن کاملNb Sn Accelerator Magnet Technology R & D at Fermilab
INTRODUCTION Nb3Sn accelerator magnets allow magnet operation above 10 T and drastically increase the coil temperature margin relative to NbTi magnets. Magnets with such parameters are needed for the LHC IR upgrade, cr mponents of ILC, MSR and MC magnet systems. Fermilab is developing Nb3Sn accelerator magnets using shell-type dipole coils and the wind-and-react method. The R&D program includes...
متن کاملHeat Transfer through the Electrical Insulation of Nb3Sn cables
For the LHC upgrade projects, CERN will rely on the Nb3Sn technology to build high field dipole and quadrupole superconducting magnets. In the frame of this R&D program, cooling studies are carried out to determine the heat extraction from this new type of accelerator magnets and the relevant quench limits. In this paper we present and discuss experimental results of heat transfer through the e...
متن کاملAnalysis of the quench propagation along Nb3Sn Rutherford cables with the THELMA code. Part I: Geometric and thermal models
The paper describes the new lumped thermal model recently implemented in THELMA code for the coupled electromagnetic–thermal analysis of superconducting cables. A new geometrical model is also presented, which describes the Rutherford cables used for the accelerator magnets. A first validation of these models has been given by the analysis of the quench longitudinal propagation velocity in the ...
متن کاملAperture Limitations for 2 Generation Nb3sn Lhc Ir Quadrupoles1
1 Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy * [email protected] Abstract One of the straightforward ways towards the higher luminosity in the LHC is a replacement of the present 70mm NbTi quadrupoles with Nb3Sn quadrupoles which would provide the same field gradient but in a larger aperture. Conceptual designs of such magnets with 90 mm aperture have been developed and studied. This paper d...
