HFM Project Work Packages and RD Line Fora

The HFM Programme is structure in 6 RD Line which contains and Work Packages.

Work Packages will be grouped into the RD Lines Fora. Each RD Line Forum builds on the Work Packages within the domain. RD Lines will enable the exploitation of synergies and provide a focal point for the main R&D areas:

  • Nb3Sn Conductors;
  • HTS Conductors and HTS Magnet Technologies;
  • Nb3Sn Magnets;
  • Common Modelling Tools, Materials, Protection and Cryogenics;
  • Infrastructures and Measurement Techniques;
  • Scientific and Societal Impact.

The RD Line Fora and Work Packages may be adapted in the future to adjust for the progress and accommodate the evolving needs of the

HFM R&D Programme. The RD Line Fora are led by coordinators appointed by the HFM Project Leader

The present list of HFM RD Lines and Work packages is presented below:
