FNAL and CERN magnet groups are developing a twin-aperture Nb3Sn 11 T dipole suitable for installation in the LHC to provide room for additional collimators in the dispersion suppressor (DS) areas. Two of these magnets with a collimator in between will replace one regular MB dipole. A single-aperture 2-m long dipole demonstrator and two 1-m long dipole models have been assembled and tested at FNAL in 2012-2014. The 1 m long collared coils were then assembled into the twin-aperture configuration and tested in 2015. The first magnet test was focused on the quench performance of twin-aperture magnet configuration including magnet training, ramp rate sensitivity and temperature dependence of magnet quench current. In the second test performed in July 2016 field quality in one of the two magnet apertures has been measured and compared with the data for the single-aperture models. These results are reported and discussed in this paper.

The High Luminosity upgrade of the LHC at CERN will use large aperture (150 mm) quadrupole magnets to focus the beams at the interaction points. The high field in the coils requires Nb3Sn superconductor technology, which has been brought to maturity by the LHC Accelerator Research Program (LARP) over the last 10 years. The key design targets for the new IR quadrupoles were established in 2012, and fabrication of model magnets started in 2014. This paper discusses the results from the first single short coil test and from the first short quadrupole model test. Remaining challenges and plans to address them are also presented and discussed.
