Title: Construction of a Fermilab superferric test magnet

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6219868· OSTI ID:6219868

This technical memo documents the construction of a cold iron superconducting test magnet. The superferric magnet design was based on a concept sketch provided by Bob Wilson. Construction and dunk testing of the magnet in a liquid helium dewar took place in a time period of less than one week. The magnet operated successfully to its design field of 2 Tesla with no training.
