Progress of Research and Development of Fundamental Technologies for Accelerator Magnets Using Coated Conductors

Abstract

A project to develop the fundamental technologies for accelerator magnets using coated conductors is in progress. A coil-dominated magnet and an iron-dominated magnet were designed, based on the conceptual design of spiral sector fixed field alternating gradient accelerator for carbon cancer therapy and that for accelerator-driven subcritical reactor, respectively. The required winding technologies were clarified through designing the magnets. The R&D of winding technologies for coils with three-dimensional shape and those with negative bend have been carried out. The influence of the magnetization of coated conductors on the field quality of magnets was studied experimentally.
