PARALLEL SESSION B
B2 Superconductivity and superconducting magnets
Wed 2nd Oct 16h25 - 18h00
Superconducting magnets are key components in particle accelerators and fusion energy experiments, where their primary role is to control the path and shape of beams of electrically charged particles. Progress is constantly made in the field of superconductivity and particularly the following technical areas are of interest to Big Science organisations developing future particle accelerators, colliders and fusion tokamaks: superconducting materials, superconducting RF cavities, superconducting links, magnet design and technology, cable and conductors production and test, manufacturing and testing of coils, high-temperature superconductors.
Speakers of the session
Agenda
Fredrik Engelmark
ILO for CERN, FAIR, XFEL, PERIIA, Big Science Sweden
Daniel Schoerling CERN
This talk will provide an overview of applications of superconductivity in big science applications.
Daniel Schoerling CERN
This talk summarizes the requirements in terms of procurement of superconductors and SC magnets over the next 5 years at CERN
This speech will present the construction of large Poloidal Field coils that, due to their extreme large dimensions of 16 to 24 meters diameter and weights of up to 400 t, were built within the F4E site. The speech will describe the manufacturing and testing processes in an industrial production-line environment, highlighting the manufacturing steps, the deployed key technologies, and the lessons learned. This experience can become a benchmark for production facilities of fusion projects and contribute to the development of the technologies which will be required for the commercialization of fusion energy.
Sara Casalbuoni
XFEL
Undulators are used in light sources to produce high brilliant photon beams. After an introduction on undulator magnets and their applications, I will present the present and possible future projects in this area at European XFEL.
