Engineering Study of the Sector Magnet for the Dae $\delta$ alus Experiment
2014
The Daeδalus experiment seeks to evaluate neutrino scattering effects that go beyond the standard model. Modular accelerators are employed to produce 800 MeV proton beams at the megawatt power level directed toward a target, producing neutrinos. The Superconducting Ring Cyclotron consists of identical sectors (currently 6) of superconducting dipole magnets with iron return frames. The Daeδalus Collaboration has produced a conceptual design for the magnet, which, after several iterations, is the current best design that achieves the physics requirements of the experiment. The main purpose of the analytical effort, results of which are presented here, is to develop a viable engineering design satisfying requirements to the superconductor, as well as structural and cryogenic requirements. The work includes proposed conceptual approaches, solid modeling and analyses for the conductor and winding pack design, high-temperature superconductor and copper current leads for the magnet, structural design of the magnet cold mass, cryostat and warm-to-cold supports, cryogenic design of the magnet cooling system, and magnet power supply sizing. A description of the winding pack design, structural analysis, and cryogenic system is reported.
