Q2. What is the optimum temperature for the coupling magnet?
Using this conductor, the magnet margin is expected to be >0.8 K when the induction at the high field point is 7.44 T, the current is 210 A, and the cold mass temperature is 4.2
Q3. How long will the coupling magnet discharge?
In a rapid discharge mode, the magnet will discharge in about 5400 s.MT-20 Paper 4L-03, to be published in IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity 18.
Q4. What is the gussets used to connect the coupling magnet to the RF?
The force carrying gussets will connect the magnet cold mass supports to the RF cavity vacuum vessel, which in turn will connect to the rest of MICE.
Q5. What is the RF cavity breakdown and dark current experiment at Fermilab?
MICE requires two coupling coils; the 201 MHz RF cavity breakdown and dark current experiment at Fermilab requires a single coupling coil.
Q6. What is the effect of the quench analysis on the magnet?
The quench analysis showed that the magnet will quench safely even at a lower current, so the conductor decision favored reducing the heat leak into both stages of the cooler.
Q7. What is the name of the project?
The Institute of Cryogenics and Superconductive Technology at the Harbin Institute of Technology in partnership with the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory will build the coupling magnets for MICE and the MUCOOL experiment [6] at Fermilab.
Q8. Why are the magnets cooled using small 4.2 K coolers?
Because the magnets will be cooled using small 4.2 K coolers, they must be engineered so that the heat leak into both stages of the cooler is minimized.
Q9. What is the smallest of the three types of magnets in MICE?
KThe coupling magnet is the largest of the three types of magnets in MICE both in terms of diameter and stored magnetic energy at full current.
Q10. What is the indentation in the cryostat wall?
There is an indentation in the cryostat wall at the bottom of the magnet cryostat that fits around a 130 mm OD vacuum pumping post for the RF cavities and the vacuum space around the RF cavities.
Q11. How long does the coupling magnet charge?
At the full design voltage of the power supply, the magnet will charge to 210.1 A in about 13140 s (at an average voltage of 9 V).
Q12. What is the effect of the hts leads on the performance of the coil?
The performance of the HTS leads is affected by the magnetic field in the region between the first and second stages of the magnet coolers [10].
