Title: Multiple coil pulsed magnetic resonance method to measure the SSC bending magnet multipole moments. Progress report, February 1, 1991--May 31, 1992

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:10114945

This Final Report presents a summary of the performance of a 32-coil pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance field mapping system for mapping SSC dipole magnets that was developed with the support of Contract DE-AC0287ER40350. It measures the magnetic multipole moment coefficients up to a{sub 15} and b{sub 15} in a warm bore tube along the 98% of the length of the magnet that has a field homogeneous enough for NMR measurements. The 1 cm long active region of the probe permits it to measure the 8.5 cm periodicity of the coefficients attributed to the twist pitch of the superconducting cable. The system`s measurement rate of four measurements per second allows it to probe the dynamic behavior of the coefficients down to a time scale of .25 seconds in swept field and other transient field situations. An analysis of the errors in the measurements and a comparison with measurements by the Brookhaven Mole on SSC dipole DCA317 is discussed along with an extended set of measurements on this magnet near the injection field of 0.67 T and 2.2 T.
