Discussion on Design and Construction of a Storage Ring Magnet, Fuji Electric Co., Tokyo, Furukawa Electric Co., Yokohama, and New Japan Steel Co., Nagoya, Japan, January 23-January 31, 1988: Foreign Trip Report.

摘要

The purpose of this trip was to discuss various technical aspects and approaches to be used in the design and construction of a storage ring magnet. This magnet will be used in the Muon g-2 experiment to be performed at BNL. As the size of these magnets grows larger, it becomes increasingly more difficult to manufacture off-site and transport the finished product to the site. On-site construction becomes necessary and it is of great interest to US magnet builders to learn this technology thereby allowing on-site construction of this type of magnet coil. This is a follow-up meeting to a visit made by our Japanese colleagues in September, 1987. During the trip, mainly technical discussions were held with KEK personnel. At Fuji Electric discussions related to coil winding tooling while conductor handling and its specification were discussed at Furukawa Electric. Yoke steel and its magnetic properties were considered at New Japan Steel. (ERA citation 14:013414)
