Description
The workshop shall bring together scientists and engineers designing superconducting magnets for high-radiation environments such as beam lines, accelerators, colliders and detectors, for physics and other applications, particle production sources (hadrons and leptons), as well as fusion facilities.
 
The workshop objectives include:
 
  • Establish an overview of activities and results, and discuss experimental data and modelling work on radiation effects in superconductors, in particular HTS; 
  • Quantify and contrast radiation environments for different applications, in particular particle accelerators and fusion facilities; 
  • Advance the understanding of radiation-induced degradation of material properties with the goal to establish radiation damage limits for superconductors and other magnet components; 
  • Discuss R&D directions for enlarging the material database, and improving the radiation resistance of magnets; 
  • Foster synergies among communities (e.g. high-power targetry). 


The workshop program includes both invited and contributed talks. Abstract submission closes on Nov 17th, 2024.
