The field strength generated by permanent magnets has been further extended by the introduction of saturated iron. A permanent magnet quadrupole (PMQ) lens with such saturated iron is one of the candidates for the final focus lens for an e{sup +}e{sup -} Linear Collider accelerator, because of its compactness and ...

To better control the beam position, tune, and chromaticity in the Fermilab Booster synchrotron, a new package of six corrector elements has been designed, incorporating both normal and skew orientations of dipole, quadrupole, and sextupole magnets. The devices are under construction and will be installed in 48 locations in the Booster ...

The magnetic field in superconducting dipoles and quadrupoles have undesired higher multipoles present. These higher multipoles are caused by deviations from the ideal configuration of current and iron that produces a pure dipole or a pure quadrupole field. End effects are a source of higher multipoles. Correction coils may be provided ...

The Intertank Matching Section (IMS) of the Ground Test Accelerator (GTA) is a short (36 cm) beamline designed to match the Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) exit beam into the first Drift Tube LINAC (DTL) tank. The IMS contains two steering quadrupoles (SMQS) and four variable-field focusing quads (VFQs). The SMQs are fixed strength ...

This report contains the following topics on heavy ion fusion: MBE-4 drifting beam quadrupole operating range; transverse emittance growth in MBE-4; an improved ion source for MBE-4; drifting beam studies on MBE-4; 2-MV injector; improvements in lifetime of the C{sup +} source; injector control system; Maxwell spark gap test update; ILSE cosine 2{theta} ...

Among the magnet development program of a large-aperture Nb{sub 3}Sn superconducting quadrupole for the Large Hadron Collider luminosity upgrade, six quadrupole magnets were built and tested using a shell based key and bladder technology (TQS). The 1 m long 90 mm aperture magnets are part o ...

The Booster requires highly variable magnet cycles. When B is large, eddy current induced sextupole, etc., in the dipole vacuum chamber (VC) is large, with a much smaller contribution from magnet ends. Simple passive coils excited automatically by transformer action cancel the B induced sextupole. A self correction coil is not required for the ...

This review of Radiofrequency Quadrupole (RFQ) Acelerators contains a short history of Soviet and Los Alamos RFQ developments, RFQ beam dynamics, resonator structures, and the characteristics and performance of RFQ accelerators. (AIP)

The properties of rf power manifolds for use in a radio frequency quadrupole accelerator are discussed in the context of a coupled-circuit model. (GHT)

In electron scattering experiments with high energy resolution in the nuclei sup 42 Ca, sup 44 Ca, and sup 48 Ca magnetic dipole and quadrupole excitations were looked for. For this at the Darmstadt electron linear accelerator spectra at incident energies...

POPAE, the proposed Proton--Proton Intersecting Storage Ring Facility at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, will require some 1400 superconducting 6.0 T dc dipole and quadrupole magnets. The dipoles are 6.17 m long and consist of coils of rectangular ...

A magnet sorting procedure for accelerators is developed. It is implemented in two steps. The first step is completely analytical in character while the second step involves the comparison of computed values with the measured error values. The method has been implemented for sorting the Advanced Photon source (APS) injector synchrotron dipoles and ...

The beam commissioning of the SPring-8 synchrotron was started in December 1996. In the first ten days, the coarse tuning of the pulse magnets for beam injection from the linac, and the excitation pattern of the dipole and the quadrupole magnets, were accomplished during energy ramping of the beam. The acceleration ...

A major milestone for the LHC Accelerator Research Program (LARP) is the test, by the end of 2009, of two 4m-long quadrupole magnets (LQ) wound with Nb{sub 3}Sn conductor. The goal of these magnets is to be a proof of principle that Nb{sub 3}Sn is a viable technology for a possible LHC luminosity upgrade. The ...
