## FNAL Superconducting Magnet Program

- All phases of accelerator magnet development, incl. superconductor R&D test and support
- Long history of SC magnets **(****Tevatron, SSC, Fermilab/LHC IR quads...****)**
- Present primary focus is on Nb3Sn Quadrupoles for LHC IR upgrade, as part of LARP, but also, HINS, ILC, Muon Collider and Tevatron support
- Projects such as Muon Magnets R&D depends heavily on Fermilab base support for SC Magnet R&D
**Provides for infrastructure support**
**Provides salary and M&S support for R&D beyond project scope **

## Helical Cooling Channel

- Cooling Channels proposed by Muons Inc for MANX experiment.  Time scale for demonstration: 2010
- Solenoid, with superimposed helical quad/dipole filled with low Z material can reduce 6D emittance
- Recent work by Vl. and Va. Kashikhin+ K. Yonehara present two practical designs for MANX muon cooling demonstration. (**see Yonehara talk**)
- SBIR have been submitted to carry this program to cooling channels suitable for full scale muon collider

## Large Bore Option

**SEE ASC 2006 Publication: Kashikhin et al, 1LL07**

## Helical  Solenoid

**The solenoid consists of a number of ring coils shifted in the transverse plane such that the coil centers follow the helical beam orbit. The current in the rings changes along the channel to obtain the longitudinal field gradients. **

**One can see that the optimum gradient for the helical solenoid is -0.8 T/m, corresponding to a period of 1.6 m.**** **

## Concept Decision in FY07 

- Issues for making designs:
- Heavily dependent on (un)certainty about the design of the experiment
**Small bore design is modular, less expensive to build and test.  Large bore design is easier to adapt once built.**
- Conceptual design work on matching sections
- Resource loaded schedule for magnet system including mechanical design, cryostat design, quench protection, etc. to estimate labor/M&S for each design

**General consensus is that small bore option is the preferred solution**

## Design Tasks in  FY07

- Mechanical Designs for coils structure (small bore segmented solenoid option)
**5cm multiturn stack of hardway bend NbTi cable (LHC IR), potted?  shrink cylinder for radial forces **
**Mechanical support for longitudinal compression**
**Sets of coils locked into transverse tracks to withstand expected 300kN longitudinal (end) and 200kN transverse restoring force**
**Helium vessel 4 meter long x 1 meter diameter cylinder**
**Goal to build demonstration coil (s) + support this year**
- Electrical design- linear longitudinal decrease in field accomplished by:
**Separate PS (5-10 kA systems, each with separate controls etc..) or segmentation by cold diodes**
**Nested PS (multi small current leads)**
**Coil density (reduces modularity)**

## Design Tasks in  FY07

- Cryo-issues
**Coils + beam space in same Helium volume...**
**How does design match MTA cryo plant? **
**Expected max static heat load ~ ten Watts..  No appreciable beam issues.. Multiple power leads (if needed) have to be laid out**
**Lots of LHe dead space.. Need displacer system to reduce helium volume**
- Quench Protection .. 4 MJ stored energy
**Coils will be coupled **
**Dependent on coil powering**** **
**Regardless, adjacent segments are magnetically coupled**
**We have experience with this LHC cable: should be easy to model (MIITS, quench velocity etc..) **
**Is external extraction circuit or heaters needed?**
