Magnetic Elements for the A1900 Fragment Separator at the NSCL

  • Chapter
Advances in Cryogenic Engineering

Abstract

A high rigidity, large acceptance fragment separator, the A1900, is being built at the NSCL. The device consists of twenty-four quadrupoles, four dipoles, sixteen sextupoles and sixteen octupoles. There are five sizes of the quadrupoles, three of which will contain sets of nested multipoles. The quadrupoles and the dipoles are superferric, with maximum pole tip fields of 2.5 T and 2 T, respectively. The quadrupole coils and the multipoles are random wound, potted using conductor from 0.85 to 1.35 mm in diameter. The dipole is layer wound with insulated conductor with a cross section of one by two mm. All coils are self protecting in case of a quench.
