Superconducting correction magnets for the HERA proton storage ring

Conference · · IEEE Trans. Magn.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6221888
The HERA proton ring is equipped with superconducting dipole and quadrupole magnets. The adjustment of the working point and the chromaticity correction are provided by quadrupole and sextupole correction coils which are mounted on the cold beam pipe inside the main dipole magnets. The coils are fixed on the pipe by epoxy and a strong glass fiber wrapping. The orbit correction in the proton ring is made by means of superferric correction dipoles which are mounted in common cyrostats with the main quadrupoles and beam position monitors. The layout of both types of correction magnets will be described and experimental results on quench behaviour and field quality will be presented.
