Abstract-The purpose of the MICE spectrometer solenoid is to provide a uniform field for a scintillating fiber tracker. The uniform field is produced by a long center coil and two short end coils. Together, they produce 4T field with a uniformity of better than 1% over a detector region of 1000 mm long and 300 mm in diameter. Throughout most of the detector region, the field uniformity is better than 0.3%. In addition to the uniform field coils, we have two match coils. These two coils can be independently adjusted to match uniform field region to the focusing coil field. The coil package length is 2544 mm. We present the spectrometer solenoid cold mass design, the powering and quench protection circuits, and the cryogenic cooling system based on using three cryocoolers with re-condensers.
A compact cryogen-free superconducting wavelength shifter with a warm bore for electron beam has been constructed for generating synchrotron radiation hard x-rays. This magnet consists of three pairs of racetrack NbTi superconducting coils that can produce a maximum magnetic field of 6.0 Tesla at the central pole. The superconducting coils, the aluminum supporting block, and the return iron yokes are cooled to 4 K, and the thermal shielding and HTS current leads to 60 K, by using a 1.5 W Gifford-McMahon type cryocooler. The technical issues on the magnet design and the construction process are presented. Several different measurement systems will be used to characterize the magnetic field performance.
A 32-pole superconducting magnet with a 12 80 mm 2 cold bore aperture was designed to serve as a multipole wiggler in the Taiwan synchrotron light source. The magnet consists of 32 pairs of racetrack NbTi superconducting coils with a periodic length of 60 mm, and can produce a maximum magnetic field of 3.2 Tesla at a pole gap of 18 mm. The superconducting coils, the aluminum-supporting block, and the return iron yokes are cooled to 4.4 K in LHe bath. The temperature of cold bore beam duct will be at 70 K using liquid nitrogen. Technical issues concerning the design of the magnet and its construction are discussed. A prototype magnet with five poles was also constructed to characterize the magnet design by means of various methods of magnetic field measurement.
