Diagnostic system of the facility for the study of superconducting quadrupoles.

Abstract

For the purpose of the HED@FAIR project, NRC "Kurchatov Institute" - IHEP creates four quadrupole magnets with a unique combination of winding characteristics and magnetic field gradient. To study them in various operating modes (cooling, maintaining operating parameters, heating, the transition of the magnet to the normal state), a facility equipped with a diagnostic system was developed. The article presents a description of the requirements put forward to the diagnostic system of this installation, the allowable measurement ranges, operating modes, and its design features are considered
