Conceptual design of a common coil dipole for VLHC

摘要

Superconducting magnet technology and cost reduction are key issues in the R&D effort towards a post-LHC, 100 TeV hadron collider. A dipole field of 10-12 T at 4.5 K operating temperature results in acceptable machine length and refrigeration power requirements, and allows taking advantage of synchrotron radiation damping to achieve low beam emittance. In this paper, the conceptual design of a react-and-wind common coil dipole is presented, which aims at these operating parameters with minimum cost and complexity.
