The luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN requires the installation of additional collimators in the dispersion suppressor regions of the accelerator. Amongst other things, the upgrade foresees the installation of one additional collimator on either side of IP 7 at the location of existing main dipoles that will be replaced by shorter and more powerful dipoles, and of one...

For the upgrade of the LHC a few 15 meter Nb-Ti main dipole magnets are foreseen to be replaced by two 11 T Nb3Sn dipoles, 5.5 meter long each. A series of model magnets has been produced to verify the design choices that are important for the prototype and series production. A fourth and fifth 2 meter single aperture model and a second double aperture model coil were produced, assembled and...

The U.S. Magnet Development Program is developing Canted-Cosine-Theta (CCT) magnet technology for future high field accelerator magnets. The CCT concept prevents Lorentz force accumulation by placing turns within precision-machined grooves that are separated by ribs and a spar that intercept forces, sustainably reducing the stress in the conductor. With other non-stress managed coils, now...

US Magnet Development Program (MDP) is developing a 15 T Nb3Sn dipole demonstrator for a post-LHC pp Collider. The magnet design is based on 60-mm aperture 4-layer shell-type coils, graded between the inner and outer layers to maximize the magnet performance. An innovative mechanical structure based on aluminum IC-clamps and a thick stainless steel skin was developed to preload brittle Nb3Sn...

Fermilab, in collaboration with CERN, has developed a twin-aperture 11 T Nb3Sn dipole suitable for the high-luminosity LHC upgrade. During the 2012-2014, a 2-m long single-aperture dipole demonstrator and three 1-m long single-aperture dipole models were fabricated and tested at FNAL Vertical Magnet Test Facility. Collared coils from the two 1-m long models were then used to assemble the...

The CCT (Canted Cosine Theta) Technology has been studied for its suitability for an FCC main dipole in terms of magnetic and mechanical performance, electro-thermal protectability, as well as efficiency. In this paper we present lessons learnt from our search for efficient CCT solutions by means of 2-D magnetic and mechanical simulations, discuss the 3-D periodic mechanical model, as well as...
