  The open type Quadrupole magnets (Max. gradient: 16 T/m) for 2.5 GeV Indus-2 are made in C-configuration in which both of outer vertical sections of the steel are removed to take out the emerging synchrotron beam lines, in the region immediately adjacent to main dipole magnets of the ring. This induces engineering complexity relating to mechanical stability that critically controls the deviations in magnetic centre and field quality. To meet the stringent field quality requirements, the mechanical structure, which is precisely holding the magnet poles, is designed for minimum deflection at maximum gradient. The magnet is simulated with coupled field Emag-structural analysis, using ANSYS. The measurement of magnetic centre shift in prototype magnet assemblies with maximum excitation current is within 15 microns. The magnetic measurement results show that the higher order multipoles are low and not changing with excitation current. The optimized open-type Quadrupole magnet design is implemented in series production of all 32 magnets. The mechanical assembly accuracies and stability of series magnets with excitation are discussed in this paper.

  Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) requires dc biased sinusoidal excitation for electromagnets. Power supplies based on resonant schemes are best suited for such applications, as only the losses of the resonant network are drawn from the mains and the magnets are energized by resonating its inductance with external energy storage elements. In this paper study of various options for powering the magnets and its excitation source is carried out. Optimization of network elements for parallel resonant network with respect to the operating and investment cost is carried out. Tolerance analysis of a high-Q resonant network with respect to variation in component values and its effect on amplitude and phase of magnet current, and the ac component reflected in the magnet current due to presence of ac and dc input source ripple is documented in detail. Design of a parallel , continuous ac excited resonant network for the QF2 magnet for the proposed 1 GeV Rapid Cycling Synchrotron is presented.
