Studies for the LHC luminosity upgrade showed the need for quadrupoles with apertures much larger than the present baseline (70 mm). In this paper we focus on the design issues of a 130 mm aperture quadrupole. We first consider the Nb-Ti option, presenting the magnetic design with the LHC dipole cable. We study the Lorentz forces and we discuss the field quality constraints. For the Nb3Sn option we sketch two designs, the first based on the LARP 10 mm cable, and the second one on a 15 mm cable. The issue of the stress induced by the Lorentz forces, which is critical for the Nb3Sn, is discussed using both scaling laws and finite element models.

The ability of high temperature superconducting (HTS) conductor to carry high currents at low temperatures makes feasible the development of very high field magnets for uses in accelerators and beam-lines. A specific application of a very high field solenoid is to provide a very small beta region for the final cooling stages for a muon collider. This paper will describe a conceptual design of a 50 Tesla solenoid based on Bi-2223 HTS tape, where the magnet will be operated at 4.2 K to take advantage of the high current carrying capacity at that temperature. A 25 Tesla solenoid has been run using a 5 Tesla Bi-2212 insert. The current carrying capacity of the BSCCO wire has been measured to be 266 Amps/mm2 at 4.2 K at the NHFML. This paper will describe the technical issues associated with building this 50 Tesla magnet. In particular it will address how to mitigate the large Lorentz stresses associated with the high field magnet and how to design the magnet to reduce the compressive end forces.

After LHC operates for several years at nominal parameters it will need an upgrade to higher luminosity. Replacing the low-beta insertions with a higher performance design based on advanced superconducting magnets is a straightforward step in this direction. One of the approaches being considered for the new LHC IRs is a "dipole-first: option with two separation dipoles placed in front of the focusing quadrupoles. It reduces the number of parasitic collisions with respect to the "quadrupole-first" option and allows independent field error corrections for each beam. Most of key magnet designs for the "dipole-first" option including high-field large-aperture dipoles (D1) and 2-in-1 quadrupoles have already been studied and reported. This paper focuses on design studies of the 2-in-1 separation dipole (D2) located between D1 and the quadrupoles. High operation field of the same polarity in large adjacent apertures imposes limitations on the maximum field, field quality and mechanics for this magnet. This paper analyses possible D2 magnet designs based on Nb3Sn superconductor and compares them in terms of the aperture size, maximum field, field quality and Lorents forces in the coil.

Accelerator magnets based on Nb3Sn superconductor advances magnet operation fields above 10T and increases the coil temperature margin. Development of a new accelerator magnet technology includes the demonstration of main magnet parameters (maximum field, quench performance, field quality, etc.) and their reproducibility using short models, and then the demonstration of technology scale up using long coils. Fermilab is working on the development of Nb3Sn accelerator magnets using shell-type dipole coils and react-and-wind method. As a part of the first phase of technology development Fermilab built and tested six 1-m long dipole models and several dipole mirror configurations. The last three dipoles and two mirrors reached their design fields of 10-11 T. Reproducibility of magnet field quality was demonstrated by all six short models. The technology scale up phase has started by building 2m and 4m dipole coils and testing them in a mirror configuration. This effort complements the Nb3Sn scale up work being performed in the framework of US LHC Accelerator Research Program (LARP). The status and main results of the Nb3Sn accelerator magnet development at Fermilab are reported.

The Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) will demonstrate ionization cooling in a short section of a realistic cooling channel using a muon beam at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) in the UK. The MICE RF and Coupling Coil Module comprises a superconducting solenoid mounted around four normal conducting 201.25-MHz RF cavities. Each cavity has a pair of thin curved beryllium windows to close the conventional open beam irises. The coil package that surrounds the RF cavities is to be mounted on the outside of a 1.4 m diameter vacuum vessel. The coupling coil confines the beam in the cavity module and, in particular, within the radius of the cavity beam windows. The two MICE coupling solenoids will be operated in series using a 300 A, 10 V power supply. The maximum longitudinal force that will be carried by the cold mass support system is 0.5 MN during the expected operating and failure modes of the experiment. The detailed design and analysis of the two coupling coils has been completed, and the fabrication of the magnets is under way. The primary magnetic and mechanical design features of the coils are presented along with a summary of key fabrication issues.

2-D and 3-D magnetic calculation tools and methods have been developed at SIGMAPHI, in collaboration with IN2P3/LPSC, to design spiral FFAG magnets. These tools are currently being used for RACCAM spiral scaling FFAG magnet design. In the particular case of a spiral gap shaped magnet, a careful magnetic design has to be realized in order to keep both vertical and horizontal tunes constant during acceleration process. Promising results, obtained from tracking in 3-D field maps, demonstrate the efficiency of the horizontal and vertical tune adjustment methods presented in this paper.

An intelligent magnet design, modelling and optimization method with the aid of beam dynamics analysis and three dimensional magnetic field calculation is introduced. The whole procedure is implemented in an integrated virtual prototyping environment built with python language. As a case study, the main magnet design of a 16MeV H- compact cyclotron is illustrated. Both the field isochronism and transversal focusing of the beam can be fulfilled, and the mechanical analysis is performed to validate the feasibility in mechanics.
