Superconducting magnets for SIS100 and Super-FRS - project progress
The heavy ion synchrotron SIS100 and the fragment separator Super-FRS form the central elements of the novel accelerator facility FAIR at Darmstadt, Germany. In both machines, superconducting magnets are utilised for the ion-optical lattice.
Currently, the production and testing of the magnet series are ongoing involving several project partners and suppliers. The completion of both machines comprising several hundred superconducting magnets is essential to launch the experimental program of FAIR, as aimed for in 2028.
In order to serve such demanding timelines, production and testing processes are optimised and quality assurance is intensified. For SIS100, an alternative supply chain is prepared in terms of prototyping and development of further testing capacities for the need case.
This paper gives an overview on the project landscape for the production and testing of superconducting magnets for FAIR. The current status of deliveries and acceptance is summarised.
Special focus is given on the recent progress of module installation into the facility, where the processes have been developed at the successfully assembled and operated module string test setup.
This paper concludes with an outline for completion of the SIS100 and Super-FRS.
