A contract for multipole superconducting wiggler design and fabrication between the University of Saskatchewan (Canada) and Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics (BINP) was signed in October 2003. The wiggler with the photons energy range from 4 to 40 keV, the maximumˇeld 1.9 T and the period length as small as possible was required for the micro-XAFS beamline. In 2004 the 2 T 63-pole superconducting wiggler with the average period length 34 mm was fabricated at BINP. To eliminate the undulator type spectrum the periodicity of the wiggler was broken. A new approach to the cryostat design enabled the long time (up to 6 months) machine operation without liquid helium reˇlling (LHe consumption < 0.03 l/h). In January 2005 after successful tests the wiggler was installed on the Canadian Light Source (CLS) storage ring with the energy 2.9 GeV. The main parameters of the magnet and the cryogenic systems as well as magnet measurements data, cryogenic system test data and experimental results during machine operation on the CLS storage ring are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
