The non-scaling FFAG EMMA, now under construction at STFCs Daresbury Laboratory, requires 84 quadrupoles. Because of the unusual nature of these magnets*, prototypes for the F and the D type quadrupoles were required. These magnets were ordered from and constructed and measured by Tesla Engineering. Subsequently, design changes have been made and modifications to the prototypes carried out. The paper will give engineering details of these prototypes, of the measurement results obtained using a rotating coil magnetometer and subsequent adjustments to clamp plates and pole profiles needed to obtain optimum three dimensional gradient quality. As a result of these developments, the construction of the magnets for the complete ring is now underway.

EMMA - the Electron Model of Many Applications - is to be built at the STFC Daresbury Laboratory in the UK and will be the first non-scaling FFAG ever constructed. EMMA will be used to demonstrate the principle of this type of accelerator and study their features in detail. The design of the machine and its hardware components are now far advanced and construction is due for completion in summer 2009. |
