Fermilab is involved in superconducting accelerator magnet R&D under the framework of the U.S. Magnet Development Program (USMDP). An integral part of that program is High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) accelerator magnet development to demonstrate self-fields of 5 T or greater compatible with operation in hybrid LTS/HTS configuration to generate fields beyond 16 T for future High Energy...
The Electron Ion Collider (EIC) Hadron Storage Ring (HSR) will reuse most of the existing superconducting magnets from the RHIC storage ring. However, the existing stripline beam position monitors (BPM) used for RHIC will not be compatible with the planned EIC hadron beam parameters that include higher intensity, shorter bunches, and some operational scenarios with large radial offsets of the...
Fermilab’s Illinois Accelerator Research Center (IARC) is designing small-scale, ~10 MeV prototype conduction cooled superconducting accelerators for projects ranging from medical device sterilization to road pavement modification. These accelerators are built using high-Q Nb3Sn coated superconducting radio-frequency cavities. The cryostat design for one such prototype being developed for the...
Superconducting undulators with a period >15 mm can offer a much higher on-axis undulator field than state-of-the-art cryogenic permanent magnet undulators with the same period and vacuum gap. The commissioned NbTi planar SCUs for user operation in the KIT synchrotron and the APS storage ring are operated stably without quenches, producing outperformed photon flux in the high energy part of...
