Test Results for RD3c, A Nb3Sn Common-Coil Racetrack Dipole Magnet

Description: The Superconducting Magnet Group at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory has been developing racetrack technology for economical, high-field accelerator magnets from brittle superconductor. Recent tests have demonstrated (1) robust, reusable, double-layer, flat racetrack, wind and react Nb{sub 3}Sn coils, (2) a reusable, easily assembled, coil-support structure that can minimize conductor movement, and (3) 15T dipole fields, with no degradation. RD3c is our first attempt to compare measured and calcula… more

Performance Comparison of Nb3Sn Magnets at LBNL

Description: The Superconducting Magnet group at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has been successfully developing Nb{sub 3}Sn high-field dipole magnet technology for the last ten years. Noteworthy magnet tests include D20 (50mm bore, 4-layer cos{theta}, 12.8 T, accelerator quality dipole), and recent racetrack dipoles: (1) RTI (2-layer, 12 T, no bore, no training), (2) RD3b (3-layer, 14.7 T, 10mm bore), (3) RD3c (3-layer, 10 T, low-harmonics 35mm bore), and (4) some small Nb{sub 3}Sn magnets that util… more
