NbTi Helical Undulator• Final Parameters:
• 215A
• Beam tube ID: 4.7 mm
• Winding ID: 6.35 mm
• Field on axis: 0.86 T
• Margin with this conductor: 30%

(Revised) Goals• To create two identical undulators with Nb3Sn
• 300mm long and direct comparison with previous NbTi undulators
• The same period, diameter, winding groove etc as NbTi

Supercon Test Results from CERN
6
• Operating current 720A required
• Wire will quench at <4T
• Not ideal but we will gain useful experience by winding an undulator with this wire
• So, we will wind two 300mm helical undulators and measure their performance in terms of quench, stability, and peak field

Testing• No suitable test cryostat at RAL• LASA Milan (Giovanni Volpini) have kindly
offered to carry out the tests of both undulators
• Thanks to Amalia/CERN and Frank/KIT for also trying to fit us in!

Schedule• Undulator 1 ready for test now• Undulator 2 ready for test by end December• Both undulators should be tested at LASA by
mid Feb 2013.• Test one after the other ~3 days each• Simple peak B field check with Hall probe and
magnet performance as function of current

Summary• We are still on target to achieve our goals by
the end of M48• We have completed the first undulator, fully
impregnated and heat treated• Second undulator to follow shortly• Tests will be carried out at LASA Milan
