Abstract

Jefferson Lab is constructing an 11 Gev/c electron spectrometer called the Super High Momentum Spectrometer (SHMS) as part of the 12 GeV JLAB upgrade for experimental Hall C. Three of the five superconducting(SC) SHMS magnets are under construction at SigmaPhi in Vannes France as a result of an international competition for design and fabrication. The three magnets Q2 and Q3 60 cm bore quadrupoles and the 60 cm warm bore dipole are complete or near complete and have many design features in common. All three magnets share a common superconductor, collaring system, cryostat design, cold to warm support, cryogenic interface, burnout resistant current leads, DC power supply, quench protection, instrumentation and controls. The three magnets are collared, installed in cryostats and welded up and in various stages of final testing. The Q2 quadrupole is due to ship from France to America in August arriving during this ASC conference and has passed all final hipot, leak and pressure tests. The dipole is in leak and pressure testing as of July 2016 while the Q3 quadrupole requires some outer vacuum vessel assembly. Delivery of the Q3 and Dipole magnets will follow the Q2 at about 1 month intervals. Lastly, factory testing havemore »« less

Test Results of Fast Decaying Current-Induced AC Losses in SHMS Superconducting Magnets at Jefferson Lab

Journal Article Sun, Eric ; Lassiter, Steven ; Ghoshal, Probir ; ... - IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity

The 11 GeV Super High Momentum Spectrometer (SHMS) of Hall C, part of the recent 12 GeV accelerator Upgrade at Jefferson Lab, was successfully commissioned in 2017. Fast current discharges of the SHMS Q2, Q3 quadrupoles and dipole superconducting magnets experienced some level of operational difficulty, during commissioning and normal operation. Measurements and analyses demonstrate that the fast current discharge leads to substantial AC losses in the conductor and subsequently triggers a quench-back effect. The details of the measurements and analyses have been reported previously. This paper focuses on the test results of the magnets using a reduced value ofmore »« less

Quench-Back Management for Fast Decaying Currents in SHMS Superconducting Magnets at Jefferson Lab

Journal Article Sun, Eric ; Ghoshal, Probir K. ; Fair, Ruben J. ; ... - IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity

The Super High Momentum Spectrometer (SHMS) of Hall C, part of the 12-GeV upgrade at Jefferson Lab, was successfully commissioned in 2017. Early operation demonstrated that fast current dumps decays of the SHMS Q2/Q3 and dipole superconducting magnets triggered quenches, causing some level of operational difficulty. Tests and detailed assessments suggest that nonquench induced fast current decay could result in substantial ac loss in the conductor and subsequently trigger a quench-back effect. The OPERA/ELECTRA software package was used to calculate the amount of heat deposited in the copper stabilizer from a fast current decay. The resistances of external energy dumpmore »« less

Structural Analysis of the SHMS Cosine Theta Superconducting Dipole Force Collar

Journal Article S.R. Lassiter, P.D. Brindza, M.J. Fowler, E. Sun, G. Markham - IEEE Transactions in Applied Superconductivity

Jefferson Laboratory is developing a set of innovative superconducting magnets for the 12 GeV upgrade in JLAB Hall C. We will report on the finite element analysis (FEA) of the force collar for the Super High Momentum Spectrometer Cosine Theta Dipole magnet. The force collar is designed with an interference fit and intended to provide enough pressure after cool down to operating temperature to counteract Lorentz forces acting on the dipole coil during operation. By counteracting the Lorentz forces and keeping the coil pack in overall compression, movement of the coils is expected to be minimized. The dimensional geometry ofmore »« less

AUP first Pre-series Cold Mass Installation into the Cryostat

Conference Strauss, T. ; S. Feher a, S. a ; Rabehl, R. ; ...

For the Hi-Lumi LHC Upgrade (HL-LHC) new high field and large-aperture quadrupole magnets for the low-beta inner triplets (Q1, Q2, Q3) are being built. These new quadrupole magnets are based on Nb3Sn superconducting technology. As part of the US-HiLumi Accelerator Upgrade Project (AUP) ten Cryostat Assemblies (LQXFA) for Q1 and Q3 replacement will be built, tested and delivered to CERN. The first of the LQXFA was assembled and tested at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) during the fall of 2022 and spring 2023. We will present the integration work of the Cold Mass assembly into the Cryostat Kit provided bymore »« less

JLAB's Super High Momentum Spectrometer's Superconducting Q1 Magnet

Conference Lassiter, Steven R. ; Brindza, Paul D. ; Sun, Eric ; ...

Abstract- The commissioning and test results of a super ferric, superconducting, quadrupole magnet, constructed by Scientific Magnetics Inc. for Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (TJNAF also known as JLAB) will be presented. The quadrupole magnet, named Q1, is the first focusing element in the Super High Momentum Spectrometer (SHMS). The SHMS, located within JLAB's experimental Hall C, consists of all superconducting magnets in a dQQQD configuration and is part of the JLAB's 12 Gev upgrade. Here "d" refers to the small horizontal bend dipole, "Q" stands for focusing quadrupole magnets and "D" is the vertical bending, momentum-selecting dipole magnet. Characterizationmore »« less
