Status of the Nb$_{3}$Sn Canted-Cosine-Theta Dipole Magnet Program at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory

As part of the US Magnet Development Program, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) is working on the development of high field stress-managed Nb
$_{3}$
Sn dipole magnets using canted-cosine-theta (CCT) technology. As part of this program, a series of two layer magnets, CCT3/4/5, with short sample bore field of approximately 10 T and a 90 mm diameter open aperture have been designed, fabricated, and tested. The first magnet in the series, CCT3, was limited to less than 70% of the short sample current, this limitation is believed to be due to conductor damage. The second magnet in the series, CCT4, reached 86% of the short sample current, after changes to the groove geometry were made to accommodate dimensional changes in the cable during heat treatment. The third and final magnet of this series, CCT5, reached 88% of the short sample current with improved training relative to CCT4, after changes were made to the impregnation and assembly methods. While this two layer series was used to successfully demonstrate Nb
$_{3}$
Sn CCT magnet technology, improvements in the training behavior of these magnets is desirable. For this purpose, a subscale program has been devised in order to probe the causes and explore reductions / improvements to training in stress-managed magnet technology. The subscale nature of the magnets allows for faster turnaround in the fabrication and testing process. In this paper, we present the design and test results for the first (baseline) subscale Nb
$_{3}$
Sn CCT magnet and demonstrate that the subscale platform and the larger two-layer magnets produce similar training results.
