Summary
This paper presents the electromechanical design and performance analysis of a 16-tesla canted-cosine-theta twin-aperture dipole magnet candidate for the future circular collider. Through comprehensive 2-D and 3-D simulation studies, the authors evaluate magnetic, mechanical, and thermal characteristics during normal operation and quench scenarios, comparing efficiency with competing magnet designs. The results qualify the CCT design as a viable contender for the FCC main dipole application.
Key measures

Outcomes reported
The study evaluated the magnetic, mechanical, and electrothermal performance of a 16-T canted-cosine-theta (CCT) twin-aperture dipole design through 2-D and 3-D simulations. The results demonstrated that CCT technology is a viable contender for the future-circular-collider main dipole based on efficiency and performance metrics compared to alternative designs.
