Summary

This paper documents progress in developing a high-temperature superconducting (HTS) bulk undulator with a 12 mm period length for the Shanghai soft X-ray free electron laser facility. The work includes detailed engineering design and thermal-mechanical analysis of the HTS variable temperature insert, leveraging staggered-array superconductor technology to generate high magnetic fields in a compact geometry. The development of such shorter-period undulators could enhance the photon energy range capabilities of synchrotron radiation and free electron laser facilities.

UK applicability

This research is not directly applicable to UK farming systems, soil health, nutrient density, or agricultural practice. It concerns accelerator physics and superconducting materials for large-scale research infrastructure.

Key measures

Undulator period length (12 mm), number of periods (50), magnetic field strength, deflection parameter K, thermal and mechanical properties of the HTS variable temperature insert

Outcomes reported

The study reports engineering design, thermal and mechanical analysis, and current development status of a 50-period bulk HTS undulator with 12 mm period length for the Shanghai soft X-ray free electron laser facility.
