Design and construction of a 1 m model of the low current superconducting quadrupole for the LHC insertions

About one hundred individually powered low current superconducting quadrupoles will be installed in the LHC insertions. One of the design requirements was to keep the excitation current of the magnet below 6 kA in view of minimizing the costs of the powering circuits. The design of the quadrupole is...

description About one hundred individually powered low current superconducting quadrupoles will be installed in the LHC insertions. One of the design requirements was to keep the excitation current of the magnet below 6 kA in view of minimizing the costs of the powering circuits. The design of the quadrupole is based on a 8.2 mm NbTi cable, and is designed for a nominal gradient of 200 T/m at 1.9 K. In this paper we present the design of the quadrupole and discuss the construction details of the 1 m single aperture model which has been recently completed.
