Breakout-magnets: summary
L. BotturaThoughts on a Friday night
Valentine’s day, 2014
Superconductors• Material research: the FCC superconductors are not looking like anything we
know from the past, nor HL-LHC. The present potential for improvement is in the range of 20 %... 50%, not enough– 5 years target: work on carrier density, pinning, grains to improve performance in
present high-field materials – 10 years target: consider other materials (Fe-based, MgB2, round REBCO)– Very large scale material requirements for LTS (10x ITER Nb3Sn production) and HTS
(much above anything done so far)
• Actions proposed:– Launch a focussed 16 T Nb3Sn conductor program (factor 2 Jc at 18 T)– Pursue work on HTS materials to make them suitable for accelerator magnets– Consider other issues (protection, filaments/field quality, homogeneity and yield for
low cost)– The LTHFSM Workshop could be an incubation center for material R&D
• Open questions:– Are exotic materials (Fe-based SC) a realistic candidate for R&D ?
Magnet technology• HL-LHC and companion HFM programs are exploring the
11...13 T operating field range, with ultimate field levels that are relevant to FCC (Fresca2), much experience can be drawn from these programs
• Is there a “barrier” at 15 T, or is this only perceived as such ?
• In the 16…20 T field range it is not clear what is the best geometry (block, cos-theta, CCT), examine them all
• The present design margin, in the range of interest, is very large (20 %) – how to decrease it ?
• Training, we cannot afford so many (> 10) quenches• Magnet protection is an issue both for LTS (energy density
vs. JE) and HTS (propagation speed and detection)
Matters of optima
• Tunnel length, operating field and temperature, SC material selection, are parameters affecting greatly the location of the optimum (minimum cost, maximum performance)
• Other constraints (e.g existing infrastructure), and benefits (e.g. the value of R&D at the field frontier) must be considered
My Comments on Magnets• Very interesting for a non-expert
– Much to be learned, thanks for the insight– Very active field
• Quite some interaction with other experts required for optimisation
• Should not forget the insertion magnets– Goal for b*=0.1m (Rogelio Tomas)– Challenges magnets– But helps for overall design
• Faster ramp of LHC magnets (O(3minutes)) appears possible– But some studies to be performed– Many issues of LHC re-use as injectors
• Need to evaluate aperture needs for injector in 100km ring
• Added some slides in the reserve on the different individual talks
In practice
• Define a direction for relevant R&D, set challenging (but realistic) targets, describe impact of this technology on other fields, and describe a development plan into a roadmap document to be contributed by the collaborators and edited within the scope of the FCC study
• This roadmap document will become a reference for future accelerator magnets R&D proposals (e.g. US-DOE, Horizon 2020), and can be used as a basis of collaboration for FCC design and hardware R&D work
• Time scale: 3 months (tough !)
• First volunteers• Also some private discussions with no presentation
• List of critical items to work on is progressing• Technical items shown by Miguel• Promised to produce first draft soon
• Very good discussion on magnets• Progress visible• Still new design ideas• Workplan in preparation
• Will continue with video meetings
Conclusion
Many thanks to the speakers and the chair Mike Syphers for almost keeping the schedule
And to all participants
The Summary that I Cannot Show
Some Key Points from the Talks
D.S., Brennan Goddard
MagnetsDavid Larbalestier: LTS and HTS Material Issues for 16 and 20 T Applications• Nb3Sn is still plan A• But have HTS cable, still issues to be addressed
Amalia Ballarino: Material R&D toward 16-20T horizon• ITER first large-scale user of Nb3Sn (800 A/mm2 at 12 T, 4.2
K): 500t• HL-LHC needs 2500 A/mm2 at 12 T, 4.2 K• FCC with 16 T magnets: 4,500 tons of Nb3Sn and 10,000
tons on NbTi• FCC with 20 T: 1,400 tons HTS, 6,300 tons Nb3Sn, 11,000
tons NbTi
MagnetsPaolo Ferracin: Overview of HiLumi low beta and FRESCA2 magnets• FRESCAII is block magnet to test HTS inserts• Forces and stresses on coil for FRESCA2 comparable to 16-
20 T coils
Mikko Karpinnen: 11T Experience• Many lessons learned from the 11T work for the HL upgrade
Steve Gourlay: SC Magnet Developments Towards 16T Nb3SN Dipoles• A slanted solenoid design looks attractive and should be
tested
MagnetsEzio Tedesco: Design Options for the 15-20T Range• We should review the design margin, it cost a lot
Peter McIntyre: Low Cost Magnet Design• We should think about the cost not focus only on the field
Attilio Milanese: Injector Magnet Considerations• The LHC magnets can be made to ramp up in 3 minutes,
with some sissues to be addressed
Rogelio Tomas: Insertion Magnet Challenges• Insertion magnets are also important• Should aim for b=0.1m

Material R&D toward 16-20T horizon
• ITER will be first large-scale (500t) user of Nb3Sn, with 800 A/mm2 at 12 T, 4.2 K
• HL-LHC needs 2500 A/mm2 at 12 T, 4.2 K
• Total amount of conductor needed for 16 T magnets in 100 km collider would be about 4,500 tons of Nb3Sn and 10,000 tons on NbTi
• For 20 T in 80 km tunnel, 1,400 tons HTS, 6,300 tons Nb3Sn, 11,000 tons NbTi
• Production quantity of HTS is huge by today's standards - too early to even start guessing about cost
Amalia Ballarino
Paolo Ferracin
Overview of HiLumi low beta and FRESCA2 magnets
• Low-beta is 7 m long magnet, accelerator quality coils and magnet at 12 T operational field level, Nb3Sn, cos2theta
• FRESCA2 is aiming at 15 T dipole field for HTS insert tests, not accelerator quality, block coils
• Forces and stresses on coil for FRESCA2 comparable to 16-20 T coils
Mikko Karpinnen
11T Experience
• Many lessons learned from the 11T work for the HL upgrade• Cannot list them here
• Useful input for future R&D

“perfect” current distribution
Steve Gourlay
SC Magnet Developments Towards 16T Nb3SN Dipoles
• Different winding scheme potentially could make magnets cheaper by reducing stress
• Paradigm change?
• This seems well worth exploring
Ezio Tedesco
Design Options for the 15-20T Range
• Need to review required margin
Low Cost Magnet Design
• Should consider an overall cost optimisation leaving the dipole field as a free parameter
• 5 T 10 K dipole is excellent candidate for rapid-cycling injector
Peter McIntyre
Attilio Milanese
Injector Magnet Considerations
• Different options of injector magnets investigated
• SPS with Nb3Sn magnets takes 5-10 minutes to ramp, require 25 ramps
• LHC magnets can likely ramp faster than now with some modifications in the power supplies (2-3 minutes)
• Option with normal magnets in the 100km ring need to be reviewed for impedance and required aperture
R. Tomas
Insertion Magnet Challenges
• The interaction region contains challenging magnets
• They can drive the system design
• The interaction region impacts the overall design strongly(the beta-function determines the required beam current)
• Should aim for beta-function of 0.1m
• High field magnet development essential even if cost is high
