A proposed IR quad for the SSC
This note outlines a detailed magnetic design of a high-gradient quadrupole for the beam interaction region of the SSC. The 58 mm bore, 2 layer magnet uses 36 strand cable identical to the collider dipole magnet outer cable, thin collars, a close-fitting iron yoke, and a shell for structural support. With a 1.3:1 Cu/Sc ratio the quadrupole short sample gradient is 274 T/m at 1.9K and 209.7 T/m at 4.35 K with good field quality. Assembled with 7mm collars, the magnet is placed inside a four-segment iron yoke and prestressed with welded outer shell. Prestress is maintained during cooldown by aluminum spacers placed between the segmented iron yoke blocks. This paper describes various conceptual design details including coil geometry, load line and margin, field uniformity and saturation effects.
