Description

After a short introduction on the proposed CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and its size in terms of magnets and cryogenics, the main features of the preliminary design of the required 8 to 10 Tesla superconducting magnets are described in some detail. Some general aspects of the R and D program for the magnets, which has been recently started in close collaboration with European Laboratories and Industries are presented. A brief account of the initial steps in the program and of the present state is also given
