Summary

This paper describes design refinements to a 20 T hybrid superconducting dipole magnet intended for high-energy particle collider applications. The work builds on prior concepts by optimising both the magnetic performance and mechanical stress management of a block-coil configuration that combines low-temperature (Nb₃Sn) and high-temperature (Bi2212) superconductors. The authors demonstrate improved field quality and reduced peak stresses through enhanced stress-management geometry, with innovations in coil-end design presented as practical implementations.

UK applicability

This work is not applicable to UK farming systems, soil health, nutrient density or human health research. The paper concerns accelerator physics and superconducting magnet engineering for high-energy physics infrastructure.

Key measures

Magnetic field quality; peak stress on HTS conductors; compact coil dimensions; stress distribution in block-coil layout

Outcomes reported

The study presents design improvements to a 20 T hybrid superconducting dipole magnet combining Nb₃Sn and Bi2212 conductors. Improvements include enhanced magnetic field quality and optimised stress management with reduced peak stress on the HTS component, alongside concepts for flared-end coils with integrated joints.
