Magnet Types Brief History and State of the Art Review of R&D Programs - LHC Upgrade -VLHC -TESLA Muon Collider Conclusion Classification

• Four types of superconducting magnet systems are presently found in large particle accelerators - Bending and focusing magnets (arcs of circular accelerators) - Insertion and final focusing magnets (to control beam optics near targets or collision points) - Corrector magnets (e.g., to correct field distortions produced by persistent magnetization currents in arc magnets) - Detector magnets (embedded in detector arrays surrounding targets or collision points) Bending and Focusing Magnets

• Bending and focusing magnets are distributed in a regular lattice of cells around the arcs of large circular accelerators

Cell of the proposed magnet lattice for the LHC arcs (LHC counts 8 arcs made up of 23 such cells) Bending and Focusing Magnets (Cont.)

• These magnets are in large number (e.g., 1232 dipole magnets and 386 quadrupole magnets in LHC), • They must be mass-produced in industry, • They are the most expensive components of the machine. => any new circular machine beyond LHC will require significant value-engineering efforts to improve magnet performance and limit costs Insertion and Final Focusing Magnets

• Circular and linear accelerators usually require sets of special magnets to transport and strongly focus the beam(s) near the target or collision points

• These magnets are in limited number • They must be customized to their crowded environment • The requirements for the final focusing quadrupole magnets can be very stringent (high field gradient in large aperture, good field quality, and/or high heat load from beam losses) => can be used as a test bench for more innovative designs Contents

• Most dipole and quadrupole magnets built up to now (Tevatron, HERA, SSC, LHC...) rely on similar design concepts • These concepts were pioneered in the late 70's for the Tevatron at Fermilab • Improvements in superconductor and magnet fabrication have led to more than double the field over the last 20 years Magnetic Design

• Field is produced by saddle-shape coils, which, in their long straight sections approximate cos#or cos20 conductor distributions

• 1994: Drell panel suggests that "it may be technically feasible to build a proton collider with beam energies up to 10 times those of the LHC with technology that could be developed during the next decade7'. • 1996: Snowmas workshop where various proposals of hadron colliders with 100 TeV center-of-mass energy are examined. • 1997: Gilmann panel recommends"... an expanded program of R&D on cost reduction strategies, enabling technologies, and issues for a VLHC". => In response, the Directors of BNL, Fermi lab, LBNL, Cornell University and, more recently, SLAC, have appointed a VLHC steering committee to coordinate the R&D efforts.

• National materials R&D program in industry to improve the performance and decrease the cost of Nb3Sn wires • Vigorous magnet R&D programs at 00 BNL, Fermilab, LBNL and Texas A&M • Investigations of tunneling techniques and geological studies on Fermilab site VLHC Design Options

• Two design options are presently considered for VLHC — a low-field option (2 T), relying on low-cost, i superferric magnets (G.W. Foster, et al.) f (Fermilab)

— a high-field option (>11 T), relying on Nb3Sn or HTS magnets (BNL, Fermilab, LBNL and Texas A&M) Low-Field Option

• The 4 final focusing quadrupole magnets are modeled after the LHC arc quadrupole magnets (with a single aperture of 56 mm and a field gradient of 250 T/m), • but two of the magnets are positioned within the detector solenoid and must sustain a 4 T axial field. • The presence of the background field precludes the use of NbTi and calls for the use of Nb3Sn. Nb3Sn Program at CEA/Saclay

• CEA/DSM/DAPNIA/STCM has started in 1996 a collaboration with Alstom to develop high performance Nb3Sn wire and cable and to build a short quadrupole magnet model • The program has been slow moving at CEA because of lack of manpower, but Alstom has completed its share of the R&D work and is ready to start the production of the final cable lengths (5 x 60 m) Results of Alstom Program
