MO6PFP059 | 4-Coil Superconducting Helical Solenoid Model for MANX | 265 |
|

Funding: Supported in part by USDOE STTR Grant DE-FG02-06ER86282 Magnets for the proposed muon cooling demonstration experiment MANX (Muon collider And Neutrino factory eXperiment) have to generate longitudinal solenoid and transverse helical dipole and helical quadrupole fields. This paper discusses the 0.4 M diameter 4-coil Helical Solenoid (HS) model design, manufacturing, and testing that has been done to verify the design concept, fabrication technology, and the magnet system performance. The model quench performance in the FNAL Vertical Magnet Test Facility (VMTF) will be discussed. |

Funding: Supported in part by USDOE STTR Grant DE-FG02-07ER84825 This paper presents the results of design studies of a high field section of a helical cooling channel proposed for the 6D muon beam cooling. The results include the magnet aperture limitations, the tunability of field components, the field correction, the superconductor choice and the magnet operation margin. |

Funding: Supported in part by USDOE STTR Grant DE-FG02-07ER84825 and by FRA under DOE Contract DE-AC02-07CH11359 The helical cooling channel is proposed to make a quick muon beam phase space cooling in a short channel length. The challenging part of the helical cooling channel magnet design is how to integrate the RF cavity into the compact helical cooling magnet. This report shows the possibility of the integration of the system. |

High temperature superconductors (HTS) have been shown to carry significant current density in the presence of extremely high magnetic fields when operated at low temperature. The successful design of magnets needed for high energy physics applications using such high field superconductor depends critically on the detailed wire or conductor parameters which are still under development and not yet well-defined. The HTS is being developed for accelerator use by concentrating on the design of solenoid magnet that will have a useful role in cooling muon beam phase space. A conceptual design of a high field solenoid using YBCO conductor is being analyzed. Mechanical properties of the HTS conductors will be measured along with engineering current densities (JE) as a function of temperature and strain to extend the HTS specifications to conditions needed for low temperature applications. HTS quench properties are proposed to be measured and quench protection schemes developed for the solenoid magnet. |

WE6PFP090 | MANX, A 6-D Muon Beam Cooling Experiment for RAL | 2715 |

Funding: Supported in part by USDOE STTR Grant DE-FG02-06ER86282 and by FRA under DOE Contract DE-AC02-07CH11359 MANX is a six-dimensional muon ionization cooling demonstration experiment based on the concept of a helical cooling channel in which a beam of muons loses energy in a continuous helium or hydrogen absorber while passing through a special superconducting magnet called a helical solenoid. The goals of the experiment include tests of the theory of the helical cooling channel and the helical solenoid implementation of it, verification of the simulation programs, and a demonstration of effective six-dimensional cooling of a muon beam. We report the status of the experiment and in particular, the proposal to have MANX follow MICE at the Rutherford-Appleton Laboratory (RAL) as an extension of the MICE experimental program. We describe the economies of such an approach which allow the MICE beam line and much of the MICE apparatus and expertise to be reused. |

WE6PFP095 | Integrating the MANX 6-D Muon Cooling Experiment with the MICE Spectrometers | 2727 |
|
||
Funding: Supported in part by USDOE STTR Grant DE-FG02-06ER86282 The MANX experiment is to demonstrate the reduction of 6D muon phase space emittance using a continuous liquid absorber to provide ionization cooling in a helical solenoid magnetic channel. The experiment involves the construction of a short two-period long helical cooling channel (HCC) to reduce the muon invariant emittance by a factor of two. The HCC would replace the current cooling section of the MICE experiment now being setup at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory. The MANX experiment would use the existing MICE spectrometers and muon beam line. This paper shall consider the various approaches to integrate MANX into the RAL hall using the MICE spectrometers. This study shall discuss the matching schemes used to minimize losses and prevent emittance growth between the MICE spectrometers and the MANX HCC. Also the placement of additional detection planes in the matching region and the HCC to improve the resolution will be examined. |
