  1. Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA Ben Shepherd Magnetics and Radiation Sources Group ASTeC STFC Daresbury Laboratory FFAG 2007 - Osaka, 6-9 November 2007

  2. Overview • EMMA cell layout • Challenges in the magnet design • Novel quadrupole design to improve field quality • Results from magnet prototyping • Next steps Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  3. ERLP and EMMA • EMMA will be an FFAG addon to the Energy Recovery Linac Prototype (ERLP) project at Daresbury • EMMA: 10MeV  20MeV • Non-scaling FFAG • ERLP being commissioned at the moment • Ready by mid 2008…? Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  4. The EMMA Ring 6m 42 cells, each has: D magnetF magnet  84 magnets in main ring + injection + extraction + correctors Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  5. EMMA Cell Layout Geometry consisting of 42 identical(ish) straight line segments of length 394.481 mm D F D Inside of ring low energy beam high energy beam Circumference = 16.568m Clockwise Beam Outside of ring Cavity Magnet Reference Offsets D = 34.048 mm F = 7.514 mm Magnet Yoke Lengths D = 65 mm F = 55 mm Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  6. Magnet Challenges • ‘Combined function’ magnets • Dipole and quadrupole fields • Independent field and gradient adjustment • Movable off-centre quads used • Very thin magnets • Yoke length of same order as inscribed radius • ‘End effects’ dominate the field distribution • Full 3D modelling required from the outset • Large aperture + offset • Good field region (0.1%) must be very wide • Close to other components • Field leakage into long straight should be minimised • Close to each other • Extremely small gap between magnets • F & D fields interact • Full 3D modelling and prototyping essential! Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  7. Magnet Profiles D magnet Inscribed radius: 53mm Length: 65mm F magnet Inscribed radius: 37mm Length: 55mm Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  8. Field Clamps • Tracking studies suggest that field clamps are needed • Reduce field in the long straight (especially for kickers) • Decrease strength  increase power demand • Tried different profiles • Best is to match pole shape Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  9. Optimise in terms of normalised integrated gradient quality Maximise size of 0.1% region Minimise higher harmonics Shape Optimisation  integrate vertical field along z 0.1% region differentiate w.r.t x normalise to value at centre of vac chamber Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  10. Pole Shape Design • Standard quadrupole design: • hyperbolic pole face • finite pole width  add tangent • Choose tangent point to maximise good field region • Only 1 variable (in 2D) • Results not very good • Good field regions: • 14mm (F) • 26mm (D) • Try a new design pole profile hyperbolic region: y = ½r2 / x tangent region y = m x + c inscribed radius r Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  11. New Pole Shape Design • Remove the limitation of a hyperbolic pole face • Clearly any shape is possible – large parameter space • How to parametrise this? • Replace curved pole profile with straight lines – adjust vertex positions new old Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  12. Straight-Line Pole - Details • Start with a square pole – adjust d0 point to make two faces • Add d1 point for four faces, d2 for six – optimise with each additional point d0 d1 d2 Two Four Six Pole tip faces: Three Five d0 d1 • An odd number of faces produced better solutions Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  13. normalised integrated gradient clamp plate no clamp plate x / mm Straight-Line Poles: Results • Optimisation was carried out using the straight-line geometry for both magnets • 5 pole tip faces were used (2 variables) • Good field regions (0.1%): • 26mm (F) • 32mm (D) • Still rather short of the specified values • Better results when no clamp plates used F results Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  14. Magnet Prototypes • Two prototypes were built by Tesla to verify the design Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  15. Prototype Tests • Tested on a rotating coil bench at Tesla • Measure integrated field harmonics • quadrupole • 12-pole • 20-pole • 28-pole • … • Compare to model • Find magnetic centre (by minimising dipole component) Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  16. Extra Measurements • Carried out some extra measurements with the magnets on the bench • Clamp plate in different positions (and removed) • effect on magnet strength  fine adjustment • Steel buttons added to pole ends • effect on higher harmonics 5mm diameter steel buttons added in pairs Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  18. Prototype Test Results Normalised integrated gradient F Gradient drops off quicker(in both cases) than for the model For the F magnet, this improves the field quality… D Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  19. Prototype Tests – Clamp Plate Movement F: about 0.25% increase in strength per mm clamp plate movement D D: very slight reduction in strength central point is probably not correctly measured (hysteresis effect?) F Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  20. Prototype Tests – Buttons 12- and 20- pole components 1, 2, 3: buttons on open end 4, 5, 6: buttons on clamp plate end F Similar effects at both ends D Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  21. Model Comparisons • Measurements and model do not match up well • Further modelling should be carried out using a different code • Initial results from OPERA-3D model are more promising… 12-pole 28-pole skew harmonics 20-pole 36-pole normal harmonics Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  22. Next Steps • Measurement of both magnets together • Shimming? • OPERA modelling • Use of modelled field maps and measured data in tracking codes • Further tweaks to magnet designs • Tender exercise for production magnets (via OJEU) has started already Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA

  23. Conclusions • Very challenging magnets to design! • Old (hyperbolic + tangent) design insufficient • New design uses straight line pole profiles • Model results are much better • Prototypes have been built and tested • Test results show some differences to model – but prototypes still look reasonable • Improvement to field quality probably still possible Magnet Design & Construction for EMMA
