Description
Fermilab in collaboration with other members of the US Magnet Development Program (MDP) is working on the development of accelerator magnets for future hadron colliders. A 4-layer, 15-T dipole with 60 mm bore based on Nb3Sn superconductor is under construction with the testing foreseen at the end of the year. At the same time, there are conceptual design studies to evaluate the feasibility of reaching even higher fields with the help of HTS materials. This paper presents the results of these studies and discusses possible options towards higher fields.
