Construction and Analysis of a Modified Nb3Sn 11 T Short Dipole Model
/ Cabrera, Carmen Abad (CERN) ; Perini, Diego (CERN) ; Bampton, Tavis Alexander (CERN) ; Bahmane, Oussama Id (CERN) ; Izquierdo Bermudez, Susana (CERN) ; Bourcey, Nicolas (CERN) ; Devred, Arnaud (CERN) ; Vez, Ruth Diaz (CERN) ; Garion, Cedric (CERN) ; Guinchard, Michael (CERN) et al.
The 5.2-m-long, 11 T double-aperture Nb3Sn Dipole
Magnet was designed to replace some of the standard, 15-m-long
8.3 T Nb–Ti main dipole magnets in the Large Hadron Collider.
After the production and test of several of 2-m-long models, the
test of full-length 11 T series magnets revealed signs of performance
degradation in the coil ends after a sequence of electromagnetic and
thermal cycles. The possible sources for performance degradation
were categorized into two groups: issues internal to the coils and
issues with the coil support structure, in particular in the magnet
ends. [...]

Performance of a HL-LHC Nb3Sn Quadrupole Magnet in the 100–200 MPa Range of Azimuthal Stress
/ Mangiarotti, F J (CERN) ; Izquierdo Bermudez, S (CERN) ; Devred, A (CERN) ; Diaz Vez, R (CERN) ; Ferradas Troitino, J (CERN) ; Ferradas Troitino, S (CERN) ; Feuvrier, J (CERN) ; Guinchard, M (CERN) ; Haziot, A (CERN) ; Milanese, A (CERN) et al.
With the assembly and test results of four Nb3Sn short-model quadrupoles (MQXFS) for the High Luminosity Upgrade of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), an optimum pre-load level was established for the construction of the full-length, series magnets. Successive MQXFS magnets were used as testbeds for potential changes (including pre-load fine tuning) to be implemented in the series, and to better understand the stress dependence of Nb3Sn magnet performance.

Advanced examination of Nb3Sn 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 Nb3Sn-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.

Assessment of Training Performance, Degradation and Robustness of Paraffin-Wax Impregnated Nb3Sn Demonstrator Under High Magnetic Field
/ Araujo, D M (PSI, Villigen) ; Auchmann, B (PSI, Villigen ; CERN) ; Brem, A (PSI, Villigen) ; Daly, M (PSI, Villigen) ; Hug, C (PSI, Villigen) ; Michlmayr, T (PSI, Villigen) ; Amm, K (Brookhaven Natl. Lab.) ; Anerella, M (Brookhaven Natl. Lab.) ; Yahia, A Ben (Brookhaven Natl. Lab.) ; Cozzolino, J (Brookhaven Natl. Lab.) et al.
In the context of high-energy physics, the use of Nb3Sn superconducting magnets as a cost-effective and reliable technology depends on improvements in the following areas: long development and manufacturing cycles, conductor degradation after thermal cycling, long training, as well as a demonstration in accelerator magnets with a beam aperture of the full potential of modern Nb3Sn conductors. In short, performance, robustness, and cost are the three issues to be addressed. [...]

Subscale Stress-Managed Common Coil Design

In the context of the High-Field Magnet (HFM) Programme, hosted at CERN, and the Swiss Accelerator Research and Technology (CHART) Initiative, hosted at PSI, the Magnet Development (MagDev) project aims to contribute to the Future Circular Collider (FCC) studies through, among others: (i) research on enabling technologies and (ii) high-field Low Temperature superconducting (LTS) and High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) magnets. After a first experience with the CD1 magnet, a Canted-Cosine-Theta (CCT) Nb3Sn demonstrator, a roadmap has been established with milestones ranging from enabling technologies tested in powered samples and coils, to ultimate-field and hybrid LTS/HTS short magnets.

Towards MQXFB Series Coils

The cold powering test of the first two MQXFB prototype quadrupoles, the Nb3Sn inner triplet magnets to be installed in the HL-LHC, has found performance limitations. This prompted putting on hold the coil fabrication, to review in depth the full manufacturing process, while in parallel performing destructive inspections on selected coils. [...]
