Pressure-Application Device for Testing Pressure Sensors

A portable pressure-application device has been designed and built for use in testing and calibrating piezoelectric pressure transducers in the field. The device generates pressure pulses of known amplitude. A pressure pulse (in contradistinction to a steady pressure) is needed because in the presence of a steady pressure, the electrical output of a piezoelectric pressure transducer decays rapidly with time. The device includes a stainless- steel compressed-air-storage cylinder of 500 cu cm volume. A manual hand pump with check valves and a pressure gauge are located at one end of the cylinder. A three-way solenoid valve that controls the release of pressurized air is located at the other end of the cylinder. Power for the device is provided by a 3.7-V cordless-telephone battery. The valve is controlled by means of a pushbutton switch, which activates a 5 V to +/-15 V DC-to-DC converter that powers the solenoid. The outlet of the solenoid valve is connected to the pressure transducer to be tested. Before the solenoid is energized, the transducer to be tested is at atmospheric pressure. When the solenoid is actuated by the push button, pressurized air from inside the cylinder is applied to the transducer. Once the pushbutton is released, the cylinder pressure is removed from the transducer and the pressurized air applied to the transducer is vented, bringing the transducer back to atmospheric pressure. Before this device was used for actual calibration, its accuracy was checked with a NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) traceable calibrator and commercially calibrated pressure transducers. This work was done by Wanda Solano of Stennis Space Center and Greg Richardson of Lockheed Martin Corp.

The development of a Sustained High Power Density (SHPD) facility

A Sustained High Power Density (SHPD) facility is being planned within the U.S. as a non DT device which can be a bridge to a Compact Fusion Pilot Plant (CFPP) DT operated facility with the future capacity to produce a levelised cost of electricity at a rate competitive with current power generating systems. To accomplish this a review of ITER cost data and recent next step physics/engineering studies that promoted technology development, physics enhancements and innovated configuration improvements that increase operating availability have been injected into a proposed PPPL SHPD design. Much of the physics and engineering design basis for this effort centers on a series of ST studies carried out in recent years attempting to maximize the low aspect ratio (AR) ST performance within realistic engineering constraints of this compact fusion device. One issue found in the low AR design is the lack of volt-seconds generated by a small central solenoid that resides in the available space left after sizing the TF structure to support the high current density/HTS TF coil. Although not required in a larger pilot plant device, a solenoid wrapped around the plasma side of the SC TF coil was considered for the small low aspect ratio SHPD device. Adding a solenoid to the plasma side of the TF imposes a major change to the device configuration – a change which has been found to have cost and assembly issues when compared with an OH solenoid located at the machine center. Finally, the inclusion of a liquid metal first wall divertor system, the integration of local pairs of outboard DCLL blanket segments and a summary of physics performance conditions will be presented.

Status of the Mu2e experiment

The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab searches for the coherent, neutrino-less conversion of a μ − to e − in the Coulomb field of Al nuclei, that represents one of the cleanest Charged Lepton Flavor Violating (CLFV) processes for exploring Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics. Mu2e aims to improve previous sensitivity by four orders of magnitude, with a distinctive signature provided by identifying mono-energetic electrons with energy slightly below the muon rest mass. To reach this goal, the experiment will use the highest intensity pulsed muon beam in the world, with up to 6 × 1 0 9 stopped muons/sec. This is achieved using the Fermilab proton beam and the design and realization of a unique 25 m long superconducting solenoidal system. The high beam intensity relies upon minimizing beam losses in the slow extraction region, indicating an opportunity of using bent crystals for shadowing. A high-resolution straw tracker and a fast CsI crystal calorimeter identify the conversion electron. Both detectors are inserted behind the Stopping Target in the last solenoid section. A Cosmic Ray Veto covers a large part of the solenoids to suppress background produced by cosmic rays. In this paper, we report the details of the experimental layout, the construction status of the magnetic system and detectors, and a short description of the simulation and realization of the bent crystals. Performing crystal channeling in front of the first slow extraction septa will allow beam shadowing and largely reduce beam losses. •Charge Lepton Flavor Violation processes: μ − → e − conversion.•Large Superconducting Solenoid system.•High-Intensity beams•High precision detectors.•Crystal channeling.

Design of an Emittance Compensation Superconducting Magnet Package for LCLS-II-HE's SRF Photo-Injector

An SRF photo-injector (low frequency, quarter-wave resonator plus emittance compensation magnet) is planned for LCLS-II-HE as it can provide a higher cathode gradient and better electron beam quality than other types of CW electron guns. The magnet package is located immediately downstream of the SRF cavity, and incorporates a solenoid doublet, bucking coils for reduction of the fringe field, normal/skew quadrupoles and horizontal/vertical dipoles. All the magnets are wound of NbTi wire and operate in liquid helium environment. The solenoid package is located inside the SRF gun cryomodule. Design considerations include space limitations, optimal emittance compensation, the magnetic field limits in the superconducting wire and quench protection. The solenoid coils must provide a peak excitation > 25 kgauss 2 ·cm, a fringe field < 20 gauss at the wall of the SRF cavity, an integrated dipole field < 90 gauss·cm and an integrated quadrupole field < 10 gauss. As a result, a genetic algorithm was used to optimize the solenoid design. Correction dipoles and quadrupoles were designed using coil dominated Walstrom style coils.

Design of a Structure for Assembly and Cooling the Magnet of the Next-Generation 45 GHz ECR Ion Source MARS-D

Here, the current Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Sources (ECRISs), constructed with Nb-Ti wires and the conventional racetrack-and-solenoid structure, have achieved operating frequencies up to 28 GHz and utilized about 90% of the critical current of the Nb-Ti wire. A Mixed Axial and Radial field System Demonstrator (MARS-D) is being developed at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). This system, which consists of an innovative hexagonal Closed-Loop Coil (CLC) and a set of solenoids, can generate higher magnetic fields (up to 150% ) while requiring only about 50% of the superconducting wire, enabling Nb-Ti wires to be used in the next-generation 45 GHz ECRIS. However, the assembly and cooling of such an efficient and compact magnet are particularly challenging due to the small radial gap between the CLC and solenoids, as well as the tight operating temperature margin. To address these challenges, a structure was developed that combines a three-section radially split solenoid mandrel with a series of shrink-fit reinforcement rings and cooling channels. This paper presents the detailed structure, manufacturing method, assembly procedure, impregnation method, mechanical Finite Element Analysis (FEA) comparison, and thermal FEA comparison.

Ion Beam Propagation Through the FNAL LEBT

The Fermilab 750keV injector sends 25mA H- beam for 30µs at a rep-rate of 15Hz. The beam transmission through the FNAL injector is currently less than 50% from the ion source to the entrance of the drift tube linac. Recently it was uncovered that the primary loss point is within the region prior to the RFQ which houses the solenoid focal elements that match the beam to the RFQ. Recent diagnostic measurements indicate that the cause of the transmission efficiency could be the non-linear effects of the solenoid elements on the beam. An aperture restriction was placed just upstream of the first solenoid element to restrict the beam size and reduce the non-linear effects of the solenoid element.

The CMS Magnetic Field Measuring and Monitoring Systems

This review article describes the performance of the magnetic field measuring and monitoring systems for the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector. To cross-check the magnetic flux distribution obtained with the CMS magnet model, four systems for measuring the magnetic flux density in the detector volume were used. The magnetic induction inside the 6 m diameter superconducting solenoid was measured and is currently monitored by four nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) probes installed using special tubes outside the barrel hadron calorimeter. Two more NRM probes were installed at the faces of the tracking system. The field inside the superconducting solenoid was precisely measured in 2006 in a cylindrical volume of 3.448 m in diameter and 7 m in length using 10 three-dimensional (3D) B-sensors based on the Hall effect. These B-sensors were installed on each of the two propeller arms of an automated field-mapping machine. In addition to these measurement systems, a system for monitoring the magnetic field during the CMS detector operation has been developed. Inside the solenoid in the horizontal plane, 4 3D B-sensors were installed at the faces of the tracking detector. Twelve 3D B-sensors were installed on the surfaces of the flux-return yoke nose disks. Seventy 3D B-sensors were installed in the air gaps of the CMS magnet yoke. A specially developed flux loop technique was used for the most complex measurements of the magnetic flux density inside the steel blocks of the CMS magnet yoke. The flux loops are installed in 22 sections of the flux-return yoke blocks. The areas enclosed by these coils varied from 0.3 to 1.59 m$^{2}$ in the blocks of the barrel wheels and from 0.5 to 1.12 m$^{2}$ in the blocks of the yoke endcap disks. The development of these systems and the results of the magnetic flux density measurements across the CMS magnet are presented and discussed in this review article.

Time-delay control of a magnetic levitated linear positioning system

In this paper, a high accuracy linear positioning system with a linear force actuator and magnetic levitation is proposed. By locating a permanently magnetized rod inside a current-carrying solenoid, the axial force is achieved by the boundary effect of magnet poles and utilized to power the linear motion, while the force for levitation is governed by Ampere's Law supplied with the same solenoid. With the levitation in a radial direction, there is hardly any friction between the rod and the solenoid. The high speed motion can hence be achieved. Besides, the axial force acting on the rod is a smooth function of rod position, so the system can provide nanometer resolution linear positioning to the molecule size. Since the force-position relation is highly nonlinear, and the mathematical model is derived according to some assumptions, such as the equivalent solenoid of the permanently magnetized rod, so there exists unknown dynamics in practical application. Thus 'robustness' is an important issue in controller design. Meanwhile the load effect reacts directly on the servo system without transmission elements, so the capability of 'disturbance rejection; is also required. With the above consideration, a time-delay control scheme is chosen and applied. By comparing the input-output relation and the mathematical model, the time-delay controller calculates an estimation of unmodeled dynamics and disturbances and then composes the desired compensation into the system. Effectiveness of the linear positioning system and control scheme are illustrated with simulation results.

Support of NASA ADR/ Cross-Enterprise NRA Advanced Adiabatic Demagnetization Refrigerators for Continuous Cooling from 10K to 50mK, Development of a Heat Switch

Mechanical heat switches are used in conjunction with sorption refrigerators, adiabatic demagnetization refrigerators and for other cryogenic tasks including the pre-cooling cryogenic systems. They use a mechanical actuator which closes Au plated Cu jaws on an Au plated Cu bar. The thermal conductance in the closed position is essentially independent of the area of the jaws and proportional to the force applied. It varies linearly with T. It is approximately 10mW/K for 200 N at 1.5K. In some applications, the heat switch can be driven from outside the cryostat by a rotating rod and a screw. Such heat switches are available commercially from several sources. In other applications, including systems for space, it is desirable to drive the switch using a cold linear motor, or solenoid. Superconducting windings are used at temperatures s 4.2K to minimize power dissipation, but are not appropriate for pre-cooling a system at higher temperatures. This project was intended to improve the design of solenoid activated mechanical heat switches and to provide such switches as required to support the development of Advanced Adiabatic Demagnetization Refrigerators for Continuous Cooling from 10 K to 50 mK at GSFC. By the time funding began in 5/1/01, the immediate need for mechanical heat switches at GSFC had subsided but, at the same time, the opportunity had arisen to improve the design of mechanical heat switching by incorporating a "latching solenoid". In this device, the solenoid current is required only for changing the state of the switch and not during the whole time that the switch is closed.

Magnetostrictive Brake

A magnetostrictive brake has been designed as a more energy-efficient alternative to a magnetic fail-safe brake in a robot. (In the specific application, failsafe signifies that the brake is normally engaged; that is, power must be supplied to allow free rotation.) The magnetic failsafe brake must be supplied with about 8 W of electric power to initiate and maintain disengagement. In contrast, the magnetostrictive brake, which would have about the same dimensions and the same torque rating as those of the magnetic fail-safe brake, would demand only about 2 W of power for disengagement. The brake (see figure) would include a stationary base plate and a hub mounted on the base plate. Two solenoid assemblies would be mounted in diametrically opposed recesses in the hub. The cores of the solenoids would be made of the magnetostrictive alloy Terfenol-D or equivalent. The rotating part of the brake would be a ring-and spring- disk subassembly. By means of leaf springs not shown in the figure, this subassembly would be coupled with the shaft that the brake is meant to restrain. With no power supplied to the solenoids, a permanent magnet would pull axially on a stepped disk and on a shelf in the hub, causing the ring to be squeezed axially between the stepped disk and the hub. The friction associated with this axial squeeze would effect the braking action. Supplying electric power to the solenoids would cause the magnetostrictive cylinders to push radially inward against a set of wedges that would be in axial contact with the stepped disk. The wedges would convert the radial magnetostrictive strain to a multiplied axial displacement of the stepped disk. This axial displacement would be just large enough to lift the stepped disk, against the permanent magnetic force, out of contact with the ring. The ring would then be free to turn because it would no longer be squeezed axially between the stepped disk and the hub.

Fabrication and installation of the Mu2e cryogenic distribution system

The muon-to-electron conversion (Mu2e) experiment at Fermilab will be used to search for the charged lepton flavor-violating conversion of muons to electrons in the field of an atomic nucleus. The Mu2e experiment is currently in the construction stage. The scope of this paper is the cryogenic distribution system and superconducting power leads for four superconducting solenoid magnets: Production Solenoid (PS), an Upstream and Downstream Transport Solenoids (TSu and TSd) and Detector Solenoid (DS). The design of the cryogenic distribution system and the fabrication of several sub-systems was reported previously. This paper reports on additional fabrication and installation progress that has been performed over the past two years. Lessons learned during fabrication and testing of the cryogenic distribution system components are described. In particular, the challenges and solutions implemented for aluminum welding are reported. A description of the process used to qualify the welding procedure and welders for welding the aluminium stabilized NbTi superconducting power leads is provided. Additionally, the progress made with regards to installing the power leads into the cryogenic Feedboxes is covered.

Modeling magnetic fields with helical solutions to Laplace’s equation

The series solution to Laplace's equation in a helical coordinate system is derived and refined using symmetry and chirality arguments. These functions and their more commonplace counterparts are used to model solenoidal magnetic fields via linear, multidimensional curve-fitting. A judicious choice of functional forms, a small number of free parameters and sparse input data can lead to highly accurate, fine-grained modeling of solenoidal magnetic fields, including helical features arising from the winding of the solenoid, with overall field accuracy at better than one part per million.

Development of a high current density, high temperature superconducting cable for pulsed magnets

Abstract A low AC loss Rare Earth Barium Copper Oxide (REBCO) cable, based on the VIPER cable technology has been developed by Commonwealth Fusion Systems for use in high field, REBCO based tokamaks. The new cable is composed of partitioned and transposed copper ‘petals’ shaped to fit together in a circular pattern with each petal containing a REBCO tape stack and insulated from each other to reduce AC losses. A stainless steel jacket adds mechanical robustness—also serving as a vessel for solder impregnation—while a tube runs through the middle for cooling purposes. Additionally, fiber optic sensors are placed under the tape stacks for quench detection. To qualify this design, a series of experiments were conducted as part of the SPARC tokamak Central Solenoid Model Coil program—to retire the risks associated with full scale, fast ramping, high flux HTS Central Solenoid (CS) and Poloidal Field (PF) coils for tokamak fusion power plants and net energy demonstrators. These risk study and risk reduction experiments include (1) AC loss measurement and model validation in the range of ~5 T/s, (2) an IxB electromagnetic loading of over 850 kN/m at the cable level and up to 300 kN/m at the stack level, (3) a transverse compression resilience of over 350 MPa, (4) manufacturability at tokamak relevant speeds and scales, (5) cable to cable joint performance, (6) fiber optic based quench detection speed, accuracy, and feasibility, and (7) overall winding pack integration and magnet assembly. The result is a cable technology, now referred to as PIT VIPER, with AC losses that measure fifteen times lower (at ~5 T/s) than its predecessor technology; a 2% or lower degradation of critical current (Ic) at high IxB electromagnetic loads; no detectable Ic degradation up to 570 MPa of transverse compression on the cable unit cell; end to end magnet manufacturing, consistently producing Ic values within 7% of the model prediction; cable to cable joint resistances at 20 K on the order of ~15 nΩ; and fast, functional quench detection capabilities that do not involve voltage taps. This cable technology will be tested comprehensively in a Central Solenoid Model Coil to prove its readiness for compact, high field tokamak operation.

Time-dependent scenario modeling for the ST-E1 fusion power plant

ST-E1 is a low aspect ratio fusion power plant being designed by Tokamak Energy targeting 1.5 GW of fusion power. Characterization of the ST-E1 flat-top scenario is described elsewhere McNamara et al (2026 Nucl. Fusion 66 086008); here we focus on addressing the question of how to ramp-up the ST-E1 plasma from an initial state following breakdown and flux-surface formation to the target flat-top state. Being low-aspect ratio, the available solenoid flux of ST-E1 is limited. Therefore, particular consideration is placed on developing ramp-up scenarios that predominantly use inductive flux provided by external vertical field coils. Through time-dependent modeling with METIS, we show that this is possible when the ramp-up is performed at relatively high plasma density: although auxiliary current drive efficiency is reduced, this is significantly outweighed by (1) higher electron-ion collisional equilibration, (2) higher fusion power once ions become sufficiently hot, (3) higher poloidal beta for increased vertical-field flux, and (4) potentially favorable exhaust compatibilities. Ultimately, we show the target ST-E1 flat-top performance can be reached after a ramp-up period lasting 150 s using less than 40 Vs of solenoid flux (with vertical field providing ∼ 90 Vs of flux). The sensitivity to model assumptions are presented, with the general observation that deleterious effects can be mitigated through minor alterations of the auxiliary power temporal waveform and/or total auxiliary power level. The impact of a solenoid and the auxiliary power mix (electron cyclotron heating only versus electron and ion cyclotron heating) on the ST-E1 ramp-up success are also discussed in appendices. On this latter topic, we show that the effect of direct-ion heating during ramp-up is obscured by the uncertainty in the pedestal dynamics, identifying a clear line of future work required to make a definite decision on the ST-E1 auxiliary power mix.

Commissioning of Extended Electron Beam Ion Source at Brookhaven National Laboratory

Here, the Extended Electron Beam Ion Source (EEBIS) has been installed and commissioned at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) hadron accelerator complex in the spring of 2023. EEBIS has replaced its predecessor, RhicEBIS, which provided ions for BNL hadron facilities for over a decade since 2009. The motivations for the source upgrade are to provide higher intensities of the Au 32+ ion beam for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and to provide of an intense source of polarized 3 He 2+ ions for the future Electron Ion Collider (EIC) at BNL. EEBIS is and will continue to be the primary source for a variety of different ion species for the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory (NSRL) at BNL. EEBIS utilizes two identical, two-meter-long unshielded 5T warm bore superconducting solenoids, and it is operated with electron beam current up to 10 A, providing a high-capacity ion traps to fulfill the requirement for high intensity ion beams. The upstream solenoid contains a “short ion trap” with a length of 95 cm, while the “long ion trap” with a length of 178 cm is located inside the downstream solenoid bore. The main features of EEBIS are: * A Gas injection and ionization cell equipped with a Lorenz pulse valve * High-capacity ZAO non-evaporable getter (NEG) custom linear pumping units * In situ apparatus for pumping speed measurements to monitor NEG activation and saturation * “External drift tube” construction with differential pumping stages to provide space for Lorentz pulse valve and 3 He high-field polarization cell * A Ba oxide electron gun cathode. The design of EEBIS as well as the results of its commissioning and first-year operation are presented and discussed.

The driving mode of shock-driven turbulence

Turbulence in the interstellar medium (ISM) is crucial in the process of star formation. Shocks produced by supernova explosions, jets, radiation from massive stars, or galactic spiral-arm dynamics are amongst the most common drivers of turbulence in the ISM. However, it is not fully understood how shocks drive turbulence, in particular whether shock driving is a more solenoidal (rotational, divergence-free) or a more compressive (potential, curl-free) mode of driving turbulence. The mode of turbulence driving has profound consequences for star formation, with compressive driving producing three times larger density dispersion, and an order of magnitude higher star formation rate than solenoidal driving. Here, we use hydrodynamical simulations of a shock inducing turbulent motions in a structured, multiphase medium. This is done in the context of a laser-induced shock, propagating into a foam material, in preparation for an experiment to be performed at the National Ignition Facility (NIF). Specifically, we analyse the density and velocity distributions in the shocked turbulent medium, and measure the turbulence driving parameter $b=(\sigma _{\rho /\langle \rho \rangle }^{2\Gamma }-1)^{1/2}(1-\sigma _{\rho /\langle \rho \rangle }^{-2})^{-1/2}\mathcal {M}^{-1}\Gamma ^{-1/2}$, with the density dispersion σρ/<ρ>, the turbulent Mach number $\mathcal {M}$, and the polytropic exponent Γ. Purely solenoidal and purely compressive driving correspond to b ~ 1/3 and b ~ 1, respectively. As a result, using simulations in which a shock is driven into a multiphase medium with structures of different sizes and Γ < 1, we find b ~ 1 for all cases, showing that shock-driven turbulence is consistent with strongly compressive driving.

Measurement of needle and armature dynamics in a gasoline direct injector by high-speed neutron imaging

In modern spark ignition engines, precise delivery of fuel with gasoline direct injection has become increasingly important in the effort to meet ever stricter efficiency and emissions regulations. Use of multiple small close-coupled injections has become more common in attempt to precisely control fuel distribution in the cylinder, but these strategies are hindered by nonlinear injection effects due to operation in the ballistic region of the solenoid-operated valve and due to armature bounce at the end of injection. Understanding the internal dynamics of the injector is crucial to minimizing and controlling non-linearity and shot-to-shot variation, but the experimental techniques available to date are capable only of tracking the position of either the top of the needle (via laser sensors or by monitoring current and voltage in the solenoid coil) or the bottom of the needle (via transparent nozzles or high-speed x-ray imaging). Furthermore, a complete picture of the axial and radial motion of valve needle has until now remained elusive. In this work, we present high-speed ensemble neutron transmission imaging of an entire 8-hole gasoline direct injector operating at 200 bar, allowing for both visualization and quantification of the actuation dynamics including lift and wobble of the valve ball, oscillation and bending of the valve needle, lift, rocking, and bounce of the armature, compression of the springs, and radial swelling of the solenoid during energization. Because neutrons offer high penetration through the metal injector while also being sensitive to the 1 H nuclei in fuel molecules, it is also possible to simultaneously see the fluid dynamics of the injection process, including filling of the sac volume, emanation of the spray through the nozzle holes and into the downstream gas, and the formation and evolution of fuel films on the tip of the injector and the walls of the spray container.

Dispersion Suppression for Wedge-Based Final Cooling at a 10 TeV Muon Collider

Achieving a luminosity of $\gtrsim 10^{34} cm^{-2} s^{-1}$ in a $10 \text{ } TeV$ Muon Collider, given the short lifetime of a muon, requires reducing the 6D emittance of the muon beam through a process known as ionization cooling. In the final stage of this cooling process, the transverse emittance must be reduced to $22 \text{ } μm$, typically by allowing longitudinal emittance growth up to downstream acceptance limits. While the current International Muon Collider Collaboration designs involve $40 \text{ } T$ solenoids to reach the transverse emittance target, such high-field solenoids come with several challenges, including mechanical stress management, quench protection, and potential limitations in relying on High Temperature Superconductor technology. Designed as an alternative to using such solenoids while simultaneously reaching target transverse emittance, the previously proposed wedge-based, reverse emittance-exchange cooling scheme requires excellent dispersion suppression. In this study, we design and simulate a dispersion suppressor channel for the wedge-based final cooling design that reduces dispersion in the target direction to a target value of $D_x \sim 0.001 \text{ } m$.
