Saclay, vendredi 4 septembre 2015
The steering committee of the CERN-CEA collaboration agreement on magnets has decided to create an ad hoc Working Group
on Future Superconducting Magnet Technology
The composition of the WG is:A. Daël (CEA Saclay) - ChairmanT. Schild (CEA Saclay)C. Porcheray (CEA Saclay)G. Kirby (CERN)D. Mazur (CERN)
The mandate of the WG is of two years, 2015 is Year 1, 2016 is Year 2

A Nick Name for the ad hoc WG
In Japanese traditional architecture , fusuma
(襖 ) are vertical rectangular panels which can slide from side to side and act as doors.
So let’s open the doors and have the communities working together!

MANDATE of the ad-hoc Working Group (WG) on Future Superconducting Magnet Technology
Considering the high impact potential of the technology R&D within the efforts on HL-LHC and FCC, the mandate of the ad-hoc WG is:1) to examine the synergies between on the one hand the industrial areas of MRI, NMR as well as other relevant applications and on the other hand the FCC investments in the technology domains of superconducting magnets; 2) to demonstrate the benefits of these investments to society; 3) to develop relationships with the European industries concerned;4) to propose practical joint R&D actions to be implemented before the end of the decade.

Methodology of the FuSuMaTech ad hoc WG
1. LOOK at the outside LANDSCAPES with a medium term perspective of 5 to 7 years:– Patent landscape– MRI market landscape– NMR landscape– Conductor landscape
2. HAVE Industrial contacts and expert interviews3. DEFINE a set of realistic R&D common actions4. DEFINE the frame for funding these actions under
the « FCC 93km umbrella »

Patents• A few important
European and US companies.
• Predominantly JP and CN companies.
• Europe has still a leading position in MRI and NMR innovation capabilities
• European Union must be aware of this situation and should support the «FuSuMaTech initiative»

European Programs and contract « tooling box »• Networking:Ways for horizontal interaction with companies at
expert level (technical contacts, newsletters, document servers, technical/scientific events, etc.).
• Transnational Access: CERN and other institutes will have to support a wide access of Industry to existing infrastructures.
• Joint Research Activities: Real prototypes that the WG consider as the most efficient part of the program.
• Networking and Transnational Access could be set up in the frame of very open collaboration
• Framework for Joint Research Activities including real prototypes depends on type of funding:– EU Project (various funding programmes)– Collaborative R&D– PCP

Liaising with conductor development
• Conductor R&D is mastered by companies under CERN leadership.
• We have established a close cooperation with Dr. Amalia Balarino (who has participated to the Neurospin visit).
• WG recommendations will mention R&D on conductor but will focus on technology .

Intellectual Property – Why it matters
• Important to manage IP according to best practices
• For successful industrial exploitation, companies must be «free to operate», unhindered by existing IP rights.
• New IP rights may give competitive advantage to industrial participants of the FuSuMaTech initiative.

Patents – Specific R&D Topics
• Patenting activity is showing R&D priorities in Industry
• A detailed analysis is on going ( David Mazur)
• It confirms our selection of R&D axis

What we will ask to companies in year 2• Confirm their interest on the basis of the list of
WP’s and send letters of intent on specific ones.• Contribute to the specific task descriptions.• Comment the draft MoU and the draft
European application.• Participate to the WG industrial meeting in
December 2016 and approve the FuSuMaTech MoU

Conclusions and next steps• Companies have a very positive attitude and see the FCC effort as
a real opportunity.• JRA appear as the best way to drive efficient common work.• An intermediate report is foreseen for the end of the year 1
( steering committee) including :– WP and Task description with WP leaders– Provisional allocation with academic partners and interested companies– Draft MoU and draft EU application
• WG will wait for a « Go No Go » from Steering Committee• Contacts with competent European authorities should be
established by CERN to start lobbying the « FuSuMaTech initiative »

Prospects for MgB2 magnets
04/09/2015 CERN CEA Steering Committee Antoine DAËL R&D Synergy and Impact
MgB2 is attractive because of its intrinsic low cost.Only two companies offer commercial wire (Columbus, HyperTech).The today performance limits the application to low field magnets, max 3-4T (GE NIH, Paramed) but improvement is possible (see recent results from HyperTech).Its electromechanical behavior makes difficult React&Wind magnet but still feasible.
MgB2 can be envisaged for detector magnets but it needs developments.
