| Popis: | Circular accelerators typically have one injection and one extraction septum magnet. CEBAF is a recircuating electron linac which has a total of 27 DC current septa and one Lambertson. Current densities range from 28-48 A/mm 2 . Current sheet widths are 5-24 mm, turns count 5-24 and lengths 1000-3000 mm. A design exercise to increase the beam energy to 22 GeV is underway. Since doubling the current density in copper is not practical in the CEBAF layout a conductively cooled superconducting septum concept was examined. Putting the current sheet and its cryostat between the poles as in a standard current sheet septum would have required 90 mm pole gap. The poles were brought to 40 mm separation and the steel notched for the 90 mm cryostat. The field in the bore increased while the field outside the current sheet remained close to zero as in a conventional septum. Required current density dropped enough that a copper coil became possible. Two examples will be shown, the one discussed above and the modification of the 3000 mm septum with 0.92 T bore field.
