Superconductivity has been the most influential technology in the field of accelerators in the last 30 years. Since the commissioning of the Tevatron, which demonstrated the use and operability of superconductivity on a large scale, superconducting magnets and rf cavities have been at the heart of all new large accelerators. Superconducting magnets have been the invariable choice for large colliders, as well as cyclotrons and large synchrotrons. In spite of the long history of success, superconductivity remains a difficult technology, requires adequate R&D and suitable preparation, and has a relatively high cost. Hence, it is not surprising that the development has also been marked by a few setbacks.This article is a review of the main superconducting accelerator magnet projects; it highlights the main characteristics and main achievements, and gives a perspective on the development of superconducting magnets for the future generation of very high energy colliders.To be published in Reviews of Accelerator Science and Technology, Vol. 5Geneva, Switzerland CERN-ATS-2013-019February 2013 Superconductivity has been the most influential technology in the field of accelerators in the last 30 years.

“…The former are more economical. In spite of a number of specific issues, such as AC loss, cooling, quench detection and protection, field quality and material fatigue [17], SC ramping rates of ~1000 T/s are believed to be achievable in HTS-conductor based super ferric magnets [18][19][20]. Table 1 also includes acceleration parameters of the 30-450 GeV accelerator option "SPS" located in the SPS tunnel that accelerates the muons to the injection energy of the LHC size ring.…”

We discuss the technical feasibility, key machine parameters and major challenges of a 14 TeV c.m.e. muon-muon collider in the LHC tunnel. The luminosity of the collider is evaluated for three alternative muon sources -the PS synchrotron, one of a type developed by the US Muon Accelerator Program (MAP) and a low-emittance option based on resonant muon pair production. Project affordability is also discussed.

“…The solution is use a core design where the field crossing conductor is strongly suppressed. As discussed in [5,6,7] to achieve this goal the conductor has to be placed in the center of a wide cable gap, and its width should be no more than 20% of that gap, as illustrated in Fig. 2 The total required cable current to generate 1.8 T field in the 30 mm gap is 60 kA.…”

“…The strands are arranged in 6 vertically stacked sub-cables each with 15 and 8 strands, respectively. The details of the cable construction based on the 344C-2G strands are presented in [7]. The arrangement of the Super-Power strands will be similar except of allowing for wider spaces between the strands, which helps reduce the self-field effect and improves liquid helium cooling.…”

A Preliminary Consideration of Superconducting Rapid-Cycling Magnets for Muon Acceleration

An extensive technology development program, Muon Accelerator Program (MAP) [1], aimed at the construction of the Muon Collider is being pursued at Fermilab. There are a number of very difficult accelerator technologies that need to be developed for the successful construction of the Muon Collider. The rapid-cycling synchrotrons for the muon acceleration constitute one of them. At the MAP proposal the normal-conducting magnets are currently considered for the construction of the rapidcycling synchrotrons. In this Note we outline possible application of High Temperature Superconductor (HTS) based magnets as the low power alternative to the proposed normal-conducting ones. II. Synchrotron parameters The µ + and µbeams after passing through the cooling section are accelerated using combination of linear and circular accelerators. The rapid-cycling synchrotrons are expected accelerate the µ + and µbeams in a wide energy range, starting at 63 GeV/beam for the precision measurement of the Higgs mass, and up to (1.5-3) TeV/beam for the particle physics research beyond the Standard Model.
