Popis: The commissioning of superconducting magnet coils was monitored using embedded optical fibre Bragg grating sensors (FBG) fabricated in highly linearly birefringent (HiBi) fibre. The HiBi FBG sensors monitored the internal strain developed in the coils during the energization of the coils. The development of multiple components of strain in the coils when the magnet was energized and quenched was monitored, revealing phenomena that it had not been previously possible to measure using other sensor technologies.
