Journal ArticleDOI
Review of Quench Performance of LHC Main Superconducting Magnets
P. Pugnat,Andrzej Siemko +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an overview of the cold test program and quality assurance plan to qualify all LHC superconducting magnets is presented, and the quench training performance of more than 1100 LHC main dipoles and about 300 main quadrupoles, cold tested to date, is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance of the LHC final design full scale superconducting dipole prototypes
TL;DR: In this paper, the main features of these magnets are: two-in-one structure, 56 mm aperture, six-block two layer coils wound from 15.1 mm wide graded NbTi cables, and all-polyimide insulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Statistical diagnosis method of conductor motions in superconducting magnets to predict their quench performance
TL;DR: In this paper, a statistical method is presented to identify the mechanical weak points in the magnet without need to increase the current to provoke a quench, and the prediction of the quench level from detailed analysis of spike statistics can be expected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quench performance and field quality of the LHC preseries superconducting dipoles
Andrzej Siemko,O. Berrig,Luca Bottura,Marco Buzio,V. Chohan,E. Floch,V. Granata,Mirko Pojer,P. Pugnat,Lucio Rossi,S. Sanfilippo,N. Smirnov,J. Vlogaert,Louis Walckiers +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the main test results of magnets tested to day in both normal and superfluid helium are presented in terms of the specifications and expected performance of these magnets in the future accelerator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance of the LHC final prototype and first pre-series superconducting dipole magnets
L. Bottura,G. D'Angelo,M. Gateau,P. Legrand,Michele Modena,K. Naoui,D. Perini,P. Pugnat,S. Sanfilippo,Frederic Savary,W. Scandale,Andrzej Siemko,P. Sievers,G. Spigo,J. Vlogaert,C. Wyss +15 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the main features and performance of the pre-series magnets tested at 4.2 K and 1.8 K were reviewed and the results of the quench training, conductor performance, magnet protection, sensitivity to ramp rate and field characteristics are presented and discussed in terms of the design parameters.
