Helical Solenoids (HS) were proposed for a muon beam ionization cooling. There are substantial up to 30 MeV/m energy losses during passing the muon beam through an absorber. The main issue of such system is the energy recovery. A conventional RF cavity has diameter which is too large to be placed inside HS. In the paper presented results of dielectric filled RF cavity design. The proposed cavity has helical configuration. Presented Helical Cooling Channel module design which includes: high pressure vessel, RF cavity, and superconducting HS. Discussed parameters of this module sub-systems and shown results of muon beam tracking in combined magnetic and electric 3D fields.

Magnetic and mechanical designs of a superconducting quadrupole magnet with 120-mm aperture suitable for interaction regions of hadron colliders are presented. The magnet is based on a two-layer shell-type coil and a cold iron yoke. Special spacers made of a low-Z material are implemented in the coil midplanes to reduce the level of radiation heat deposition in the coil. The quadrupole mechanical structure is based on a thick aluminum collar supported by the iron yoke and stainless steel skin. Magnet parameters including maximum field gradient, field quality and temperature margin for NbTi or Nb₃Sn coils at the operating temperatures of 1.9 K and 4.5 K are reported. The level and distribution of radiation heat deposition in the coil and other magnet components are discussed.

Conceptual designs of superconducting magnets (dipoles and quadrupoles) for a muon collider with a 1.5 TeV c.o.m. energy and an average luminosity of 10³⁴ cm^-2s^-1 are presented. All magnets are based on the Nb₃Sn superconductor and designed to provide an adequate operation field/field gradient in the aperture with the critical current margin required for reliable machine operation. In contrary to proton machines, the dipole magnets should have open midplanes, and, for some of them, the required good field quality region needs to have a vertical aspect ratio of 2:1 that imposes additional challenges for the magnet design. Magnet cross-sections were optimized to achieve the best possible field quality in the magnet aperture occupied with beams. The magnets and corresponding protective measures are designed to handle about 0.5 kW/m of dynamic heat loads from the muon beam decays. Magnet parameters are reported and compared with the requirements.

Design of a muon collider interaction region (IR) presents a number of challenges arising from low beta* < 1 cm, correspondingly large beta-function values and beam sizes at IR magnets, as well as the necessity to protect superconducting magnets and collider detectors from muon decay products. As a consequence, the designs of the IR optics, magnets and machine-detector interface are strongly interlaced and iterative. A consistent solution for the 1.5 TeV c.o.m. muon collider IR is presented. It can provide an average luminosity of 10³⁴/cm²/s with an adequate protection of magnet and detector components.
