Quench performance of 50-mm aperture, 15-m-long SSC dipole magnets built at Fermilab

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/67478· OSTI ID:67478
The quench performance, ramp rate dependence, and mechanical behavior of ten full-length, 50-mm-aperture, SSC dipole magnets built at Fermilab are discussed. Cold testing of these magnets shows that the quench plateau established at 4.35 K exceeds the design value by more than 10%, virtually without training.
