Previous studies of magnetic field decay in model SSC dipoles due to changes in magnetization currents caused by flux creep have used the assumed SSC injection energy of 1 TeV, or 0.33 tesla central dipole field, and an excitation to the storage field of 6.6 tesla. More recently, it has been decided to inject at 2 TeV, or 0.66 tesla and so more recent tests have been carried out at the new injection field, or at both the new and old fields. Additionally, the effect of temperature changes and excitation cycles on the field decay have been studied. 6 refs., 11 figs., 2 tabs.
