As a part of the proposed electron lens system for RHIC, two 6 T, 200 mm aperture, 2.5 meter long superconducting solenoids are being designed and built at BNL. Because of several demanding requirements this has become a unique and technologically advanced magnet. For example, the field lines on axis must be straight over the length of the solenoid within ±50 microns. Since this is beyond the normal construction techniques, a correction package becomes an integral part of the design for which a new design has been developed. In addition, a minimum of 0.3 T field is required along the electron beam trajectory in the space between magnets. To achieve this fringe field superconducting solenoidal coils have been added at the two ends of the main solenoid. The main solenoid itself is a challenging magnet because of the high Lorentz forces and stored energy associated with the large aperture and high fields. An innovative structure has been developed to deal with the large axial forces at the ends. This paper will summarize the magnetic design and optimization of the entire package consisting of the main solenoid, the fringe field solenoids, and the corrector system.

An alternate structure for the 120mm Nb3Sn quadrupole magnet is presently under development for use in the upgrade for LHC at CERN. The design aims to build on existing technology developed in LARP with the LQ and HQ magnets and to further optimize the features required for operation in the accelerator. The structure includes features for maintaining mechanical alignment of the coils to achieve the required field quality. It also includes a helium containment vessel and provisions for cooling with 1.9k helium. The development effort includes the assembly of a six inch model to verify required coil load is achieved. Status of the R&D effort and an update on the magnet design, including its incorporation into the design of a complete one meter long cold mass is presented.
