U.S. Magnet Development Project for CERN Particle Collider Upgrade Moves Forward

Photo - The HL-LHC Accelerator Upgrade Project magnets use conductors made of niobium-tin to generate a stronger magnetic field compared to predecessor technology. These world-record-setting magnets will have their debut in the HL-LHC: Its run will be the first time that U.S.-built niobium-tin magnets will be used in a particle accelerator for particle physics research.

National Labs Band Together to Build Prototype Magnet for Future and Existing Light Sources

Photo - This half-meter-long prototype of a niobium-tin superconducting undulator magnet was designed and built by a team from three U.S. Department of Energy national laboratories. The next step will be to build a meter-long version and install it at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne. (Credit: Ibrahim Kesgin/Argonne National Laboratory)
