High field magnet R&D in the USA

Accelerator magnet technology is currently dominated by the use of Nb Ti superconductor. New and more demanding applications for superconducting accelerator magnets require the use of alternative materials. Several programs in the US are taking advantage of recent improvements in Nb//3Sn to develop...

description Accelerator magnet technology is currently dominated by the use of Nb Ti superconductor. New and more demanding applications for superconducting accelerator magnets require the use of alternative materials. Several programs in the US are taking advantage of recent improvements in Nb//3Sn to develop high field magnets for new applications. Highlights and challenges of the US R&D program are presented along with the status of conductor development. In addition, a new R&D focus, the US LHC Accelerator Research Program, will be discussed. 32 Refs.
