Summary
This paper describes a conceptual design for a high-field dipole insert magnet based on Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8−x (Bi2212) Rutherford cables, developed at Fermilab as part of the U.S. Magnet Development Program. The work addresses the sensitivity of Bi2212 conductors to transverse stresses and strains by applying a novel stress management approach previously developed for Nb3Sn magnets. The design specifications, technological steps, and test configurations are presented to enable development of accelerator magnets operating beyond the field limits of conventional Nb3Sn technology.
UK applicability
This work on high-temperature superconductor magnet technology has limited direct applicability to UK farming systems, soil health, or nutrition research, as it addresses particle accelerator physics rather than agricultural or food systems.
Key measures
Magnet parameters, coil stress management structure specifications, superconducting wire and cable properties, test configurations and target parameters
Outcomes reported
The study presents a conceptual design for a high-field dipole magnet insert based on Bi2212 Rutherford cables, incorporating stress management approaches to control strain in superconducting coil windings.
