RD4 – Integration, Sustainability
The main goals of the RD4 Line are:
- Develop the cryogenic techniques, in synergy with magnet design; explore the 4.5 K option for Nb3Sn
- Develop novel protection systems to enhance magnet performance and related simulation tools
- Develop insulation and impregnation schemes compatible with novel concepts of protection and cooling
Possible implementation of a dry-cooled accelerator magnet, in insulation vacuum. Cooling is achieved by forced flow of He circulating inside the piping seen on the foreground, with a cold circulator and cryocooler providing the flow conditions.
