Design, manufacturing and validation of fast-ramping alpha magnet for interleaving operation at ANL APS
Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: RadiaBeam has designed and manufactured a fast-ramping alpha magnet (FRAM) that is developed for interleaved operation at the Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory. This interleaving operation requires the alpha magnet to stably complete a 5 s long cycle with a 100 ms ramp-up, 1s nominal field output and a 100 ms ramp-down. A laminated yoke is used to minimize eddy currents, ensure fast field response times and reduce core-loss during operation. The magnet has been measured by a Hall probe at Radiabeam and at Argonne, demonstrating 2.75 T/m maximum field gradi-ent within a 10 cm x 14 cm good field region in both DC and pulse modes.
