  The Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT) line for the Front End Test Stand (FETS) at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) consists of a number of quadrupoles, re-bunching cavities and a fast-slow chopping system with dedicated beam dumps, as well as diagnostics. The type and design of the quadrupoles to be used merits special attention. Due to space restrictions, a hybrid quadrupole solution has been proposed in the past. However, because of the limited range of field adjustability achievable, this approach is not ideal. In this paper, a very preliminary investigation of an electromagnetic quadrupole (EMQ) design is presented. Magnetic simulations results performed with a 2D simulation code will be discussed including magnet optimisation details.

  The Electron Nucleon Collider (ENC) is proposed as an upgrade of the High Energy Storage Ringe of the FAIR. The beams are separated by two dipoles, mounted closely to the intraction point; surrounded by the detectors. Hence these magnetsmust provide sufficient field quality but be slim to be transparaent to the secondary particles. Further these must be air coil magnets due to the detector solenoid field of 2T. We present the 3D optimised magnet next to a first design of the mechanical restraint structure and a concise description for the field distortion leaking into the detector.

  MedAustron, a future centre for ion-therapy and research in Austria will comprise an accelerator facility based on a synchrotron for the delivery of protons and light ions for cancer treatment and for clinical and non-clinical research. The main dipole for the synchrotron went through an extensive design process to meet the stringent requirements. The local and integrated field quality was optimized. The residual field levels in the magnet gap were calculated and the dynamic behaviour of the dipole magnet was studied, both in 2D and 3D, using OPERA. The pole profile has been optimized to reduce sextupolar components in the integrated field by adjusting the shims on the pole edge. A Rogowski-profile at the pole ends and the use of stainless-steel tension straps will enhance the dynamic behaviour and guarantee a small time constants. Appropriate pole-end shimming will be used to compensate for residual multi-pole components and to fine-tune the magnetic length. The results of this comprehensive design study are summarized in this paper.

  In the J-PARC 3 GeV RCS, we found that DC leakage fields from the extraction beam line significantly affected the beam. For this issue, we installed additional shields and got the 40% reduction of the DC leakage field. Thus the circulating beam loss was successfully reduced. In this presentation, we report the detail of the shield structure and the results of the beam studies.

Cyclotron electromagnet for RI production which is used for PET scanning has been designed. Designed pancake-shape electromagnet is an advanced type of KIRAMS-13's electromagnet which has the H-type electromagnet. The AVF structure with hill and valley was used for getting strong axial focusing and producing the energy of proton beam up to 13MeV with a thin stripper foil. To design and analyse the magnet, 3D CAD (CATIA V5)and TOSCA (OPERA-3D)were used, respectively. To reduce the calculation time, routine files were developed which can generate model, mesh and field map automatically in TOSCA modeller and post processor. The beam dynamics program OPTICY is used for calculation of the tunes.
KIRAMS-13* is the cyclotron had been manufactured by KIRAMS.
KIRAMS is short for Korea Institutes of Radiological and Medical Science.

  The first stage of the ESS-Bilbao LINAC will accelerate H+ and H− high current beams up to 50 MeV for different applications. After the last acceleration step in the DTL, the beam will either be transported to the experimental laboratories by the means of several transfer lines, or continue to a further acceleration step in spoke cavities. The first design of one of the quadrupoles that focus the beam along the transfer lines is presented. The quadrupoles will have an aperture of 63 mm and 20 T/m maximum gradient, featuring a short iron yoke of 100 mm. All the quadrupoles of the transfer lines are expected to be similar in order to simplify the design and manufacturing processes. The iron yoke is small and highly saturated, and an optimization of the 3D harmonics in the load-line is developed to fulfil the field quality specifications. The required current density is high (about 8.2 A/mm2), therefore a water cooled hollow conductor is used to cool down the coils. The cooling and power supply requirements are calculated in this paper. The most important manufacturing indications are also presented.

  At the ALBA Synchrotron light source 6 kicker and 3 septa magnets are installed for beam injection and extraction. A 100 MeV beam coming from the linac is injected on axis into the Booster. The full energy (3 GeV) beam is extracted from the booster and injected into the Storage Ring, where 4 kicker magnets bring the stored beam close to the septa. All septa are direct driven out-of-vacuum magnets with C shape iron laminated yoke. The magnets are excited by a full sine approx. 300 μs pulse length; the nominal field is 0.15/0.84/0.9 T (booster injection/extraction/storage-ring-injection). The stray field seen by the stored beam is less than 1 μT. The booster kicker magnets are in-vacuum magnets with C-ferrite yoke. The magnets are excited by a 0.4 μs flat top pulse; the nominal field is 0.03/0.04 T (booster injection/extraction). The storage ring kickers have a C-ferrite yoke and a 0.4 μm Ti coated ceramic vacuum chamber. The excitation is done by 6 μs half sine; the nominal field is 0.13 T. The paper will present the design of the elements and their magnetic characteristics. First results of their behaviour during commissioning will also be discussed.

The LIPAC accelerator will be a 9 MeV, 125 mA cw deuteron accelerator which will verify the validity of the design of the future IFMIF accelerator. A Medium Energy Beam Transport line (MEBT) is necessary to handle the high current beam from the RFQ to the Superconducting RF accelerating cavities (SRF) whereas a High Energy Beam Transport line (HEBT) is used to match the beam from the SRF to the beam dump. The high space charge and beam power determine the beam dynamics in both transport lines. As a consequence, magnets with strong fields in a reduced space are required. Along the transport beamlines, there are different types of quadrupoles with steerers and a dipole. Special care is devoted to maximize the integrated fields in the available space. Both 2-D and 3-D magnetic calculations are used to optimize coil configurations. Magnetic performance and cost, both of magnet and power supply, have been taken into account for final choice. In this paper, the design of the resistive quadrupoles of the MEBT and HEBT of the LIPAC accelerator is presented.

  The MAX IV facility, currently under construction in Lund, Sweden, will consist of a 3 GeV storage ring, a 1.5 GeV storage ring, and a full energy injector/SPF/FEL driver. The Solaris facility, which will be built in Krakow, Poland, will use an identical 1.5 GeV storage ring, injected at 500 MeV. The magnet design for the 1.5 GeV storage ring is conceptually identical to the MAX III and the MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring magnets, with several magnet elements machined into one solid iron block. Detailed design has been done in Opera3D, with a model of the full magnet block being set up and simulated, and iterated against the lattice design.

  R&D Magnets activities for CLIC Project have now entered a new phase with the design & manufacturing of several prototypes investigating the most challenging aspects of the CLIC Project. As concerning the CLIC Magnet System, challenges can be related to pure technical aspects (e.g. the Final Focus QD0 quadrupole where a gradient of more than 550 T/m is requested) or to industrial production choices (e.g. the Main Beam Quadrupoles where compactness and high tolerances are requested for the mechanical assembly, or the Drive Beam Quadrupoles where a productions of more than 40000 units is needed). In this paper the key aspects of the magnets under studies such as the Drive Beam, Main Beam and the Final Focus quadrupoles will be presented and discussed. Results on prototypes under assembly and measured performances will also be addressed.

  The CERN Proton Synchrotron (PS) will remain one of the key elements of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) injector system for the next 20-25 years. Tuning the machine characteristics to the requirements for the LHC and its upgrades will require the establishment of an accurate magnetic model of the PS combined-function magnets, which is the subject of this paper. In the scope of this research, a detailed 2D quasi-static analysis of the PS magnets was performed, which allowed to investigate the magnetic field evolution and the contribution of separate magnet circuits at different field levels. An experimental validation of this new model was carried out through ad-hoc field measurements machine studies iterated with an optical model of the PS machine to recreate the measured optical parameters of the beam.

  A precise rotating-coil measurement system (RCS) was constructed to characterize the field quality and field center of multipole lattice magnets of Taiwan Photon Source (TPS). The mechanical center of magnets is determined by the two references of the magnet-feet and the RCS system is used to characterize the field center. The location of the magnetic field center is quantitatively accurate to better than 20 micro-meter in the horizontal direction; the granite support height of the RCS system is accurate within 5 micro-meter after artificial polishing. The measurement reproducibility of the field center was better than 10 micro-meter when the magnets were reinstalled. The relative accuracy of the multipoles components is better than 2×10-5. This paper reports the details of the bench construction and the unit composition. The field center with RCS measurement will be compared and discussed with the 3D-coordinate-measuring machine. The multipole errors obtained from RCS will be compared with a Hall-probe measurement system.

  A refurbishment of beam transport line to the original ISIS target station at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory has recently been completed. This work involved a slight change to the optics in the area, which included the requirement for extra steering capabilities. Due to the space constraints in the region, a quadrupole magnet with an integrated dipole steering element was developed. The steering dipole consists of four saddle shaped coils situated within the bore of the quadrupole magnet providing a maximum steering angle of 2.5mrad. This paper outlines the magnetic and mechanical design of the steering element.

Traditionally, laminated cores of AC magnets have been always built by the laminations that are produced by a punching die. There are 5 links in the tolerance chain when a magnet core is built by this procedure: 1. Error of punching die; 2. Error of lamination punching; 3. Error of half core stacking; 4. Error of core assembly; and 5. Error of magnet re-assembling during the installation in the accelerator. As time goes on, the Lattice physicists call for more and more ever higher magnet performance, which makes the required magnet field quality almost impossible achieve by traditional core fabrication procedures. It is the goal of this paper to describe a relatively new procedure that was first used by Buckley System Ltd, NZ and is being used at SINAP, China for ALS combined function sextupole core fabrication. The advantage of this new procedure and the fabrication issues related to this procedure will be described in this paper.
