Title: Summary of Test Results of MQXFS1—The First Short Model 150 mm Aperture Nb₃Sn Quadrupole for the High-Luminosity LHC Upgrade

Abstract

The development of Nb₃Sn quadrupole magnets for the High-Luminosity LHC upgrade is a joint venture between the US LHC Accelerator Research Program (LARP)* and CERN with the goal of fabricating large aperture quadrupoles for the LHC interaction regions (IR). The inner triplet (low-β) NbTi quadrupoles in the IR will be replaced by the stronger Nb3Sn magnets boosting the LHC program of having 10-fold increase in integrated luminosity after the foreseen upgrades. Previously, LARP conducted successful tests of short and long models with up to 120 mm aperture. The first short 150 mm aperture quadrupole model MQXFS1 was assembled with coils fabricated by both CERN and LARP. The magnet demonstrated a strong performance at Fermilab's vertical magnet test facility reaching the LHC operating limits. This paper presents the latest results from MQXFS1 tests with changed prestress levels. The overall magnet performance, including quench training and memory, ramp rate, and temperature dependence, is also summarized.

First Test Results of the 150 mm Aperture IR Quadrupole Models for the High Luminosity LHC

Conference Ambrosio, G. ; Chlachidze, G. ; Wanderer, P. ; ...

The High Luminosity upgrade of the LHC at CERN will use large aperture (150 mm) quadrupole magnets to focus the beams at the interaction points. The high field in the coils requires Nb3Sn superconductor technology, which has been brought to maturity by the LHC Accelerator Re-search Program (LARP) over the last 10 years. The key design targets for the new IR quadrupoles were established in 2012, and fabrication of model magnets started in 2014. This paper discusses the results from the first single short coil test and from the first short quadrupole model test. Remaining challenges and plans to addressmore » them are also presented and discussed.« less

Fabrication and analysis of 150-mm-Aperture Nb₃Sn MQXF coils

Journal Article Holik, Eddie Frank ; Ambrosio, Giorgio ; Anerella, Michael ; ... - IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity

The U.S. LHC Accelerator Research Program (LARP) and CERN are combining efforts for the HiLumi-LHC upgrade to design and fabricate 150-mm-aperture interaction region quadrupoles with a nominal gradient of 130 T/m using Nb₃Sn. To successfully produce the necessary long MQXF triplets, the HiLumi-LHC collaboration is systematically reducing risk and design modification by heavily relying upon the experience gained from the successful 120-mm-aperture LARP HQ program. First-generation MQXF short (MQXFS) coils were predominately a scaling up of the HQ quadrupole design, allowing comparable cable expansion during Nb₃Sn formation heat treatment and increased insulation fraction for electrical robustness.
