    The design, construction, and operation of accelerator magnets, particularly those employing superconductor technology, pose
    challenges in all domains of physics and engineering. These challenges include: Material science aspects, such as the development of superconducting wires and cables, the specification of austenitic and magnetic steel, and the choice of radiation-resistant insulation....

    Instead of asking what are vector fields, or what is the difference between the magnetic field intensity H
    and the magnetic flux density B, it is more meaningful to ask what they do or describe: Vector fields are mappings that assign to each point of the domain, one and only one bound vector from the domain's tangent space. Electric fields, represented by the gradient of a scalar field,...

    The lecture presents the basic phenomenology of superconductivity. It starts with the defining properties: zero resistivity and perfect flux expulsion (Meissner effect). The latter evidences a thermodynamic phase not only perfect conductivity. Without any knowledge of the underlying mechanism, one can derive the condensation energy of the superconducting state, flux penetration at the surface...

    Superconducting magnets create very high magnetic fields thanks to their intrinsically large current densities. As a consequence, large electromagnetic forces are created. Obviously, support structures are needed to hold these forces without degradation. Futhermore, as a specific feature of superconductors, proper support of the coils is necessary to avoid premature quenches. This lecture...

    When a superconducting magnet has a local irreversible transition above the critical surface (quench), protection systems must be activated to avoid overheating the conductor or creating too large voltages in the coil between the resistive part the the superconductive one. Here we will deal with protection of high field main accelerator magnets, characterised by a large current density and...

    Low emittance rings are accelerator facilities of increasing importance nowadays. Both damping rings for linear colliders and storage rings of 4th generation light sources belong to this category. Magnets for these type of rings share demanding and specific features: high field strength, good field quality, narrow tolerance alignments. There are some particular magnets to which special...

    Field maps, i.e. cartographic descriptions of the magnetic field, are used to assess the field quality in accelerator magnets, for various applications. Due to their capability to measure static magnetic fields, and their comparatively small active areas of less than 1 mm2, mapping techniques are based on Hall probes as magnetic field sensors.

    Fiducialisation is an essential part of the alignment process for an accelerator component that need to be aligned within tolerances greater than the component mechanical assembly precision.
