Advanced examination of Nb$_{3}$Sn coils and conductors for the LHC luminosity upgrade: a methodology based on computed tomography and materialographic analyses
/ Santillana, I Aviles (CERN) ; Sgobba, S (CERN) ; Crouvizier, M D (CERN) ; Devred, A (CERN) ; Izquierdo, G Arnau (CERN) ; Bulat, B (CERN) ; Moros, A (CERN) ; Izquierdo Bermudez, S (CERN) ; Milanese, A (CERN) ; Savary, F (CERN) et al.
The future of particle accelerators is strongly linked to the development of high—field magnets. The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is currently developing Nb$_{3}$Sn-based magnets for the high-luminosity upgrade of the large hadron collider (HL-LHC), to fully exploit its potential and surpass the intrinsic performance limitations of Nb–Ti-based magnets. [...]

Optimizing the Manufacture of High-Purity Niobium SRF Cavities Using the Forming Limit Diagram: A Case Study of the HL-LHC Crab Cavities RFD Pole
/ Gallifa Terricabras, Adrià (CERN) ; Aviles Santillana, Ignacio (CERN) ; Barrière, Simon (CERN) ; Cano-Pleite, Eduardo (Carlos III U., Madrid) ; Garlasché, Marco (CERN) ; Narduzzi, Manuele (Fermilab) ; Pfeiffer, Stephan (CERN) ; Prever-Loiri, Laurent (CERN) ; Swieszek, Joanna (CERN ; U. Heidelberg (main))
The Crab Cavities are key components of the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) project at CERN, which aims to increase the integrated luminosity of the LHC, the world’s largest particle accelerator, by a factor of ten. This paper explores the application of the Forming Limit Diagram (FLD) to enhance the manufacturing process of complex-shape Nb-based cavities, with a focus on the formability challenges experienced with the pole of the Radio Frequency Dipole (RFD) Crab Cavities.

Analysis of the Leakage Events in the Thermal Shield Cooling Pipes of the ITER Magnet System
/ Sgobba, Stefano (CERN) ; Santillana, Ignacio Aviles (CERN) ; Celuch, Michal (CERN) ; Crouvizier, Mickaël (CERN) ; Perez Fontenla, Ana Teresa (CERN) ; Castro, Enrique Rodriguez (CERN) ; Mitchell, Neil (Euratom, St. Paul Lez Durance) ; Koizumi, Norikiyo (Euratom, St. Paul Lez Durance) ; Pearce, Robert (Euratom, St. Paul Lez Durance) ; Worth, Liam (Euratom, St. Paul Lez Durance) et al.
The ITER Thermal Shields (TS) consist of actively cooled stainless steel panels. Their role is to minimise the radiation heat load from warm components, such as the Vacuum Vessel (VV) and the cryostat, hence contributing to insulating the magnet system operating at 4.5 K. [...]

The High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) is a major upgrade to the existing Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, aimed at increasing the integrated luminosity of the collider by a factor of ten [1]. A key component of the HL-LHC are the superconducting Nb3Sn quadrupole magnets, known as MQXF, whose purpose is to focus the particle beam [3]. [...]

Environmental Stress Cracking of Thermoplastic Polyimide Insulated Wires
/ Piccin, R (CERN) ; Rigaud, J S (CERN) ; Santillana, I A (CERN) ; Buchanan, K E (CERN) ; Ternova, D (CERN) ; Mitchell, N (Euratom, St. Paul Lez Durance) ; Liao, M (Euratom, St. Paul Lez Durance) ; Luongo, C (EUROfusion Consortium, Garching)
Polyimide is often the first choice to insulate instrumentation and magnet wires working under demanding environmental and operating conditions since it shows good mechanical properties at low temperatures and high radiation resistance. Nevertheless, we have recently discovered that thermoplastic polyimide (TPI) insulated wires may suffer an accelerated brittle failure from a combination of environmental and mechanical stress, summarized as environmental stress cracking (ESC).
