Magnetic design and analysis of the SSC High Energy Booster dipole magnets

This paper presents key magnetic design considerations and analyses performed on the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) High Energy Booster dipole magnets (HDM). The design considerations include: optimization of the cell cross section to establish low magnetic field harmonic content and specified field strength throughout a wide range of cable azimuthal sizes; effects of wedge geometry and cable stacking procedures on the field harmonics; and effects of yoke geometry and material variations on the central field strength and harmonics of the magnet.<
