AbstractAbstract
[en] The Superconducting Magnet Group at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory has been developing racetrack technology for economical, high-field accelerator magnets from brittle superconductor. Recent tests have demonstrated (1) robust, reusable, double-layer, flat racetrack, wind and react Nb3Sn coils, (2) a reusable, easily assembled, coil-support structure that can minimize conductor movement, and (3) 15T dipole fields, with no degradation. RD3c is our first attempt to compare measured and calculated field harmonics. A single-layer, Nb3Sn, flat racetrack inner-coil was wound on both sides of a bore-plate, and then reacted and potted (as previously). Hard spacers were wound into the inner coils, to adjust the geometric field harmonics, and identify any problems from hard-spacers. Harmonic measurements with a warm rotating coil also required a considerably thicker bore-plate (for the 35mm OD anti-cryostat). The inner coil-module was sandwiched between two existing outer-coil modules, and pre-stressed within the reusable yoke and shell loading structure. The magnet's performance is discussed, and compared with calculations.
