Summary
This paper describes the conceptual design of a 16-tesla superconducting dipole magnet for the proposed Future Circular Collider at CERN. The authors demonstrate that a Nb₃Sn dipole in double-aperture configuration can achieve the required 16 T bore field whilst maintaining acceptable field quality and mechanical safety through a bladders-and-keys support structure. Preliminary quench protection analysis confirms that the magnet design is protectable using established technologies.
UK applicability
This paper is not directly applicable to UK farming systems, soil health, nutrient density, or human health research. It concerns fundamental particle physics infrastructure design and falls outside the scope of Vitagri's Pulse Brain.
Key measures
Bore field strength (16 T), field quality, coil stress limits, conductor cable specifications, quench protection feasibility
Outcomes reported
The study presented a conceptual design for a 16-T Nb₃Sn cos θ superconducting dipole magnet capable of producing a 16 T bore field with good field quality. The design was validated through electromagnetic analysis, mechanical stress assessment, and preliminary quench protection studies.
