Abstract
Over the past year, magnets that meet the SSC field and quench training criteria have been developed as a result of the detailed understanding of magnet performance made possible by tests on a series of model magnets. The SSC dipole magnet design is a cos θ style coil with a 4-cm aperture and a magnetic length of 16.6 m. The design operating field is 6.6 T at a current of 6.5 kVA. Design, fabrication, and testing of full-length model magnets has been a cooperative effort among the SSC Central Design group and three major national laboratories: BNL, FNAL, and LBL.
