Mission Statement:The US LHC Accelerator Research Program enables U.S. accelerator specialists to take an active and important role in the LHC accelerator during its commissioning and operations, and to be a major collaborator in LHC performance upgrades. In particular, LARP will support U.S. institutions in LHC commissioning activities and accelerator science, accelerator instrumentation and diagnostics, and superconducting magnet R&D to help bring the LHC on and up to luminosity quickly, to help establish robust operation, and to improve and upgrade LHC performance. Furthermore, the work we do will be at the technological frontier and will thereby improve the capabilities of the U.S. accelerator community in accelerator science and technology to more effectively operate our domestic accelerators and to position the U.S. to be able to lead in the development of the next generation of high-energy colliders.

US LHC Accelerator Research Program Magnet Systems
Provide options for future upgrades of the LHC Interaction Regions
Primary Focus: Demonstrate by 2009 that Nb3Sn magnets are a viable choice for an LHC IR upgrade
– The major issues: Nb3Sn technology, consistency, bore/gradient (field), length
– Three phase approach
1. Predictable and reproducible performance
TQ models (1 m, 90 mm aperture, Gnom > 200 T/m, Bcoil > 12 T)
2. Long magnet fabrication
LQ models (4 m, 90 mm aperture, Gnom > 200 T/m, Bcoil > 12 T)
3. High gradient in large aperture
HQ models (1 m, 90+ mm aperture, Gnom > 250 T/m, Bcoil > 15 T)

– Filament diameter ~ 70 m
– Jc in the range of 2400-3000 A/mm2 at 12T
– RRR of stabilizer Cu > 100
– low field stability current Is
~ 1000 A and higher depending on reaction time/temperature

Winding & Curing
After winding a ceramic binder is applied (painted) on the coil,the binder is cured at 150 C for 30 minutes (becoming a strong bonding agent),Coils are ready for heat treatment (~650 C in argon)
10
Impregnation
Choice of epoxyCTD-101K and EPON828/DMP30 (used in Main Injector Magnets) were tested
CTD-101 K was chosen because:
the pot life is much higher than DMP-30,
very good penetration inside the coil
good mechanical properties
11
Goal
By the end of 2009 LARP should deliver a successful Long Nb3Sn Quadrupole
It will be a Proof of Principle that Nb3Sn is a viable option for the LHC luminosity upgrade
In order to have a complete Proof of Principle we will have to address this question:
“Can this magnet withstand the expected radiation dose?”
We should be able to reply either:
“Yes it can, and we have data to demonstrate it”
“No it cannot, but we have tested a TQ with an insulation/impregnation scheme that can withstand the expected dose”
Plan A
Plan B
12
Plan A
Identify the most critical parameters of TQ-like magnets that can deteriorate under high radiation dose
– Depending on material and magnet design– Share/tension, swelling, thermal conductivity …
Plan tests of these properties before and after high dose irradiation (a few different doses)
Challenges: – Energy spectrum and dose: reactors, beams (size?), LHC?– Need hot cell?– Need to keep samples cold?
13
Plan A possible results
OK, the present insulation/impregnation
scheme can withstand the expected dose We can optimize the
absorbers so that it can withstand the expected
dose
No way,We need a plan B!
14
Plan B
Goal: select a material for coil impregnation that can withstand the expected max dose and is compatible with LARP Nb3Sn coil fabrication technology
– Possible candidates: cyanate ester, mixture with epoxy, matrimid, other polyimides…
– Evaluate mechanical, electrical and thermal properties• Literature, cable stack measurement
– Evaluate compatibility with Nb3Sn coil fabrication technology
• Good impregnation, binder compatible, …

Questions
Develop plan to arrive to these answers:
“Can this magnet withstand the expected radiation dose?”
We should be able to reply either:
- “Yes it can, and we have data to demonstrate it”
- “No it cannot, but we have tested a TQ with an insulation/impregnation scheme that can withstand the expected dose”
