Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Heavy Ion Fusion program is developing superconducting focusing quadrupoles for near-term experiments and future driver accelerators. Following the fabrication and testing of several models, a baseline quadrupole design was selected and further optimized. The first prototype of the optimized design achieved a conductor-limited gradient of 132 T/m in a 70 mm bore, with measured field harmonics within 10 parts in 10{sup 4}. In parallel, a compact focusing doublet was fabricated and tested using two of the first-generation quadrupoles. After assembly in the cryostat, both magnets reached their conductor-limited quench current. Further optimization steps are currently underway to improve the performance of the magnet system and reduce its cost. They include the fabrication and testing of a new prototype quadrupole with reduced field errors as well as improvements of the cryostat design for the focusing doublet. The prototype units will be installed in the HCX beamline at LBNL, to perform accelerator physics experiments and gain operational experience. Successful results in the present phase will make superconducting magnets a viable option for the next generation of integrated beam experiments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magnetic fields interact with biological cells affecting them in variety of ways which are usually hard to predict. Among them, it was observed that strong fields can align dividing cells in a preferred direction. It was also demonstrated that dividing cancer cells are effectively destroyed by applying electric fields in vivo with a success rate dependent on the cell-to-field orientation. Based on these facts, the present note aims to suggest the use of magnetic and electric fields for improved cancer treatment. Several possibilities of generating the electric fields inside the magnetic field volume are reviewed, main tentative approaches are described and discussed. Most if not all of them require special magnet configuration research which can be based on existing magnet systems in operation or in development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of superconducting magnets in Magnetic Fusion Energy Research and Development is assessed from a consideration of program plans and schedules, the present status of the programs and the research and development suggestions arising from recent studies and workshops. A principal conclusion is that the large superconducting magnet systems needed for commercial magnetic fusion reactors can be constructed. However such magnets working under severe conditions, with increasingly stringent reliability, safety and cost restrictions can never be built unless experience is first gained in a number of important installations designed to prove physics and technology steps on the way to commercial power demonstration. The immediate problem is to design a technology program in the absence of definite device needs and specifications, giving a priority weighting to the multiplicity of good, high quality development program suggestions when all proposals cannot be supported.
