Funding: Work supported by U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. An extensive R&D program is underway at the Advanced Photon Source (APS) with the aim of developing a technology capable of building a 2.4-m-long superconducting planar undulator for APS users. The initial phase of the project concentrates on using a NbTi superconductor and includes magnetic modeling, development of manufacturing techniques for the undulator magnet, and design and test of short prototypes. The current status of the R&D phase of the project is described in this paper. |
