The goal of this book is to summarize and review the vast experience with Nb₃Sn accelerator dipole magnets accumulated in the United States, Europe, and Asia since the discovery and production of Nb₃Sn composite conductors. Interest in Nb₃Sn accelerator magnets is soaring, and their further development is rapidly gaining momentum worldwide, thanks to the growing maturity of this technology and its great potential for particle accelerators used in high-energy physics. This book is intended to contribute to the transfer of the accumulated experience with the design, technology, and performance of such magnets in view of the challenging requirements set by the needs for ever-higher collision energies in future colliders. Engineers and physicists working in the field of particle accelerators, as well as students studying courses in particle accelerator physics and technologies, may find it an indispensable source of information on Nb₃Sn accelerator magnets. Readers with a general interest in the history of science and technology may also find useful information that was obtained over a long period of time, from the late 1960s to the present day.
