THPBA08 | Partial Return Yoke for MICE - Engineering Design | 1244 |

Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. Department of Energy. MICE, which is an acronym for Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment, is a technology demonstration which is presently assembled at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Didcot, UK. MICE aims to demonstrate ionization cooling experimentally, which is an essential technology for potential future accelerators such as a muon collider. The MICE channel consists of up to 18 large bore superconducting solenoids, which produce a substantial stray field. This stray field can jeopardize the operation of electrical and electronic equipment in the MICE hall. The concept of a partial flux return yoke has been developed, which reduces the stray field in the MICE hall to a safe level. This paper discusses the engineering design of the partial return yoke. |
