The ability of high temperature superconducting (HTS) conductor to carry high currents at low temperatures makes feasible the development of very high field magnets for uses in accelerators and beam-lines. A specific application of a very high field solenoid is to provide a very small beta region for the final cooling stages for a muon collider. This paper will describe a conceptual design of a 50 Tesla solenoid based on Bi-2223 HTS tape, where the magnet will be operated at 4.2 K to take advantage of the high current carrying capacity at that temperature. A 25 Tesla solenoid has been run using a 5 Tesla Bi-2212 insert. The current carrying capacity of the BSCCO wire has been measured to be 266 Amps/mm2 at 4.2 K at the NHFML. This paper will describe the technical issues associated with building this 50 Tesla magnet. In particular it will address how to mitigate the large Lorentz stresses associated with the high field magnet and how to design the magnet to reduce the compressive end forces.

Muon acceleration from 30 to 750 GeV in 72 orbits using two rings in the 1000m radius Tevatron tunnel is explored. The first ring ramps at 400 Hz and accelerates muons from 30 to 400 GeV in 28 orbits using 14 GV of 1.3 GHz superconducting RF. The ring duplicates the Fermilab 400 GeV main ring FODO lattice, which had a 61m cell length. Muon survival is 80%. The second ring accelerates muons from 400 to 750 GeV in 44 orbits using 8 GV of 1.3 GHz superconducting RF. The 30 T/m main ring quadrupoles are lengthened 87% to 3.3m. The four main ring dipoles in each half cell are replaced by three dipoles which ramp at 550 Hz from -1.8T to +1.8T interleaved with two 8T fixed superconducting dipoles. The ramping and superconducting dipoles oppose each other at 400 GeV and act in unison at 750 GeV. Muon survival is 92%. Two mm copper wire, 0.28mm grain oriented silicon steel laminations, and a low duty cycle mitigate eddy current losses. Low emittance muon bunches allow small aperatures and permit magnets to ramp with a few thousand volts. Little civil construction is required. The tunnel exists.

We propose a complete scheme for cooling a muon beam for a muon collider. We first outline the parameters required for a multi-TeV muon collider. The cooling scheme starts with the front end of the Study 2a proposed Neutrino Factory. This yields bunch trains of both muon signs. Emittance exchange cooling in upward climbing helical lattices then reduces the longitudinal emittance until it becomes possible to combine the trains into single bunches, one of each sign. Further cooling is now possible in emittance exchange cooling rings. Final cooling to the required parameters is achieved in 50 T solenoids that use high temperature superconductor. Preliminary simulations of each element will be presented.
