The Helical Cooling Channel (HCC), a novel technique for six-dimensional (6D) ionization cooling of muon beams, has shown considerable promise based on analytic and simulation studies. However, the implementation of this revolutionary method of muon cooling requires new techniques for the integration of hydrogen-pressurized, high-power RF cavities into the low-temperature superconducting magnets of the HCC. We discuss progress and plans toward the critical path technology demonstrations of dielectric loaded 805 MHz RF cavities and 10 T Nb3Sn based Helical Solenoid magnet. Additionally we discuss integration challenges.

Magnets in the fragment separator region of the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) would be subjected to extremely high radiation and heat loads. Critical elements of FRIB are the dipole magnets which select the desired isotopes. Since conventional NiTi and Nb3Sn superconductors must operate at ~4.5 K, the removal of the high heat load generated in these magnets with these superconductors would be difficult. The coils for these magnets must accommodate the large curvature from the 30° bend that the magnets subtend. High temperature superconductors (HTS) have been shown to be radiation resistant and can operate in the 40 K temperature range where heat removal is an order of magnitude more efficient than at 4.5 K. This paper will describe the magnetic and preliminary engineering design of these magnets.

  Multipole correction insert coils with significant field strength are required inside the large aperture superconducting quadrupole magnets in the fragment separator section of the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB). Correction coils made with copper do not create the required field and conventional low temperature superconductors are not practical in the fragment separator magnets which will operate at 40 K. The correction coils should be made of HTS as the main quadrupole coils are. There is a significant advantage to using HTS in these coils as it can withstand the high radiation and heat load that will be present. This paper will describe an innovative design suitable for coils with the complex end geometry of cylindrical coils. We will look at the forces on the corrector coils from the main quadrupole fields and anticipate possible coil distortions.

A helical cooling channel (HCC) consisting of a pressurized gas absorber imbedded in a magnetic channel that provides solenoid, helical dipole and helical quadrupole fields has shown considerable promise in providing six-dimensional phase space reduction for muon beams. The most effective approach to implementing the desired magnetic field is a helical solenoid (HS) channel composed of short solenoid coils arranged in a helical pattern. The HS channel along with an external solenoid allows the Bz and Bphi components along the reference orbit to be set to any desired values. To set dBphi/dr to the desired value for optimum focusing requires an additional variable. We shall show that using elliptical shaped coils in the HS channel allows the flexibility to achieve the desired dBphi/dr on orbit without significant change to Bz and Bphi.
