  EMMA is a 20 MeV non-scaling Fixed Field Alternating Gradient accelerator (nsFFAG) proof-of-principle prototype, to be built at the Daresbury Laboratory as an accelerator physics experiment to explore the behaviour of such machines. Non-scaling FFAGs have potential applications in charged particle cancer therapy and also for particle physics; however, to date, no such accelerator has been constructed. The magnet designs present major challenges - the lattice is made up of 84 quadrupoles, with different horizontal offsets from the magnet centres in the focusing and defocusing quads. These offsets alone provide the necessary bending fields in the ring. The magnets are also very thin (55mm and 65mm yoke lengths) and end field effects therefore dominate. Careful design, followed by prototype construction and measurement, is essential. The magnets have been designed in 3D from the outset, using the CST EM Studio software. The paper will present the results of the design, showing how the magnets have been optimised to improve the integrated good gradient region, and will report on the progress of the prototyping work.

An undulator based positron source is a baseline for the International Linear Collider (ILC). The HeliCal collaboration in the UK is working on the development of a full scale 4-m long undulator module. Several prototypes have been built and tested in the R&D phase of the programme that culminated in the development of manufacturing techniques suitable for construction of the first full scale undulator sections. This paper details the design and the construction status of 4-m long undulator module.

An undulator based positron source is a baseline for the International Linear Collider (ILC). The HeliCal collaboration in the UK is carrying out an R&D programme on a short period supercoducting helical undulator with the goal to develop manufacturing technique as well as modelling and measurement techniques. Several undulator prototypes have been built and successfully tested. This paper summarizes the results of the R&D phase of the project.
