The 2014 Kyoto Workshop on HTS Magnet Technology for High Energy Physics – The 2nd Workshop on Accelerator Magnet in HTS (WAMHTS-2) –

The 2014 Kyoto Workshop on HTS Magnet Technology for High Energy Physics – The 2nd Workshop on Accelerator Magnet in HTS (WAMHTS-2) – will take place on Thursday and Friday, November 13 – 14, 2014.
This workshop is the second of a series of workshops dedicated to high T_c superconductor (HTS) technology development for accelerator magnets. The workshop focuses on HTS magnet technology, whereas the first one, WAMHTS-1 in Hamburg last May organized by FP7-EuCARD-2, focused on HTS conductors. We are emphasizing HTS accelerator magnet technology, but high field HTS coil technology in general as well as related technology is within the scope of the workshop. The workshop aims to provide a forum where researchers interested in HTS accelerator magnets can exchange ideas and information and build synergies among various R&D programs. The participants will include those working for HTS accelerator magnets, working for accelerator magnets in general and working in related areas. The workshop is “by invitation only”.

List of Topics:
- Design studies of HTS accelerator magnets
- Coil fabrication technologies for HTS accelerator magnets and/or more general high field HTS magnets
- Demonstration coils and R&D coils: construction and test results
- Magnetization and field quality of magnets
- Quench detection and protection
- Conductor issues closely related to accelerator magnets
- High field HTS magnet projects whose technologies can be transferred to HTS accelerator magnets

We will not publish proceedings.

November is one of the most beautiful periods in Kyoto. We look forward to seeing you in beautiful Kyoto with its spectacular autumn color.
