Development of magnetic mirror systems for nuclear testing applications

Description: Several system studies have concluded that the small size and steady state nature of magnetic mirror systems provide attractive features for nuclear-testing applications. The principle shortcoming of mirror systems is their small data base relative to that of tokamaks. This paper summarizes the present data base and describes experiments that could be carried out with small modifications of existing facilities to explore plasma physics issues associated with the production of high neutron fluxe… more

Allowable misalignment of various elements of the TMX magnet set

Description: A series of drift-surface and magnetic-field calculations has been carried out to try to estimate the accuracy with which the elements of the TMX magnet set must be magnetically aligned. The results of these calculations, for 500 G at the solenoidal center, are summarized.

An experimental study of the SSC (Superconducting Super Collider) magnet aperture criterion

Description: A beam dynamics experiment, performed in the Fermilab Tevatron, that was mainly motivated by planning for the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) is described. Nonlinearities are introduced in the Tevatron by special sextupoles in order to stimulate the SSC environment. ''Smear'' is one of the parameters used to characterize the deviation from linear behavior. Smear is extracted from experimental data and compared with calculation over a wide range of conditions. The agreement is excellent. Th… more
