Superconducting bending magnets for compact synchrotron radiation source

Abstract

A 180 degrees superconducting magnet has been constructed for a synchrotron radiation source. The authors describe the superconducting magnet design and some component test results for the compact synchrotron radiation source. The magnetic field at the electron orbit is 4.5 T. The bending radius is 0.593 m. The magnet has several features such as low liquid helium consumption ratio, persistent current operation, high homogeneous magnetic fields, and leakage flux shielding by the iron core surrounding the cryostat. Component tests of persistent current switches of 15 Omega and 3 Omega and a superconducting joint test have been performed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
