AC Loss in the Superconducting Cables of the CERN Fast Cycled Magnet Prototype

Fast Cycled Superconducting Magnets (FCM's) are an option of interest for the long-term consolidation and upgrade plan of the LHC accelerator complex. The economical advantage of FCM's in the range of 2 T bore field, continuously cycled at 0.5 Hz repetition rate, depends critically on the...

Sumario:Fast Cycled Superconducting Magnets (FCM's) are an option of interest for the long-term consolidation and upgrade plan of the LHC accelerator complex. The economical advantage of FCM's in the range of 2 T bore field, continuously cycled at 0.5 Hz repetition rate, depends critically on the AC loss property of strand and cable. In this paper we report the results of the AC loss measurements that we have performed both on strands and cables manufactured for the CERN FCM prototype program.
