| Popis: | The proposed muon collider requires very high field solenoids in the range of 30-50 T. The use of High Temperature Superconductors (HTS) operating at low temperature (~ 4 K) is essential for achieving such high fields in a superconducting magnet. As a part of this program, we have built and successfully tested a 25 mm aperture HTS insert generating 16 T peak field (the highest field ever achieved in an all-HTS magnet), a 100 mm aperture HTS midsert generating 9 T peak field, and designed an outsert with a conventional Low Temperature Superconductor (LTS) to provide additional field. In addition to presenting the test results and progress made in support technologies, we will also discuss a number of challenges associated with the high field HTS magnets. Finally, we present a set of strategies to overcome some of those challenges. |
