Description
In the frame of a collaboration agreement between CERN and CEA, the Main Quadrupole (MQ) design of the so-called Future Circular Collider (FCC) has to be investigated. So far, a 2D electromechanical design has been proposed in the FCC Conceptual Design Report [1,2]. Here, the FCC MQ design is further investigated through a 3D electromagnetic design. The integrated field quality over the magnet length is analyzed. In parallel, a small mock-up is set up in order to validate the 3D end design of the 2 layer magnet by means of a Nb3Sn cable very close in dimension to the final one and 3D printed end spacers. Layer jump curvature tests are reported, too.
