REBCO WG meeting

Thursday 29 Jul 2021, 11:00 → 12:20 US/Pacific

• What performances and parameters should the conductor have? How can we make magnets using these conductors? 
• What is the maximum dipole field a REBCO magnet can generate?  
• What is the magnet performance? How does it quench? What is the field quality? 
• Does the magnet performance degrade, e.g., during operation, after thermal cycles? If so, how can we prevent it?  
• How can we characterize the performance for long conductors? 

11:00 → 11:45 Status update

• Subscale common coil
• COMB
• CCT

Speakers: Anis Ben Yahia (Brookhaven National Laboratory), Maxim Martchevskii, Ramesh Gupta (BNL), Reed Teyber (LBNL), Vadim Kashikhin (Fermilab), Vito Lombardo (Fermilab), Xiaorong Wang (LBNL)

• Subscale common coil magnet:
  • BNL is waiting for the parts to be remade. 
  • Will check if we need to order any Hall probes.
• COMB:
  • Shipped a short conductor to ACT to re-lubricate. Shipped the mandrel to ACT to bend the conductor. 
  • Will follow up with ACT this week. 
• 3-turn C3:
  • Ready to order mandrels.
  • Need to keep an eye on the lubrication in the conductor.
• Ask ACT to update on the lubrication findings in early September.
