Description
About the lecture:
The notion of quench protection and detection in superconducting magnets will be introduced, along with detection requirements and where they come from. Standard for the accelerator magnet field approaches to quench detection will be described, main obstacles and solutions will be presented. Modern hardware/firmware/software implementations and examples will me mentioned. Alternative or under development methods for quench detection will be discussed and reasons for their search explained.
About the speaker:
Scientist at FNAL since 2015; working on facility and magnet diagnostic improvements, magnet testing and data analysis; recognizable involvements include support for HL-LHC at FNAL and "15 Tesla" demonstrator magnet.
