Dipoles 3 longitudinal parts Absolute integral field required accuracy + 5*10-4 Field Quality Integral field homogeneity required accuracy + 5*10-5 Practical aspects: M2M reproducibility: measurement hall not thermally stabilized, is it enough to provide measurements of the yoke temperature? - Is it foreseen to have an hall probe (or any other monitor sensor) during the magnet operation? - Position of fiducials: How are the fiducials related w.r.t. the pole surface (mechanical measurement, absolute positioning w.r.t. lamination?) and who will provide these measurements - Tolerances on the cryostat installation? (access to the pole surface) - CERN GSI/CEA MM preparation meeting, 12.06.2015. 6

Multiplets extended pre-series tests Open questions: Will the local harmonics be used in particle tracking codes? - How is defined the polarity of the magnet w.r.t. the cryostat? (on the benches is possible to install the multiplet with different orientation) - If the magnets have different optical function in the machine are we measuring in the same configuration or in the final powering mode of the machine? - Should we measure the longitudinal magnetic centre? - CERN GSI/CEA MM preparation meeting, 12.06.2015.
Multiplets Rotating coil Open questions: Tangential or radial coil - Calibration / pcb coils - Measurements radius - Coil length - CERN GSI/CEA MM preparation meeting, 12.06.2015.
Multiplets Rotating coil Tangential N turns = 64 Surface absolute coil = 3.64 m2 L = 3 m Width = 38 mm (for the main quad) Output ~5 V @ 1Hz for the absolute at Inom Coil sensitivity up to 15th order reduced by a third for a measurement radius of 175 mm the coil sensitivity is close to zero around the 50th harmonic Still possible to extrapolate the harmonics to R=180 mm CERN GSI/CEA MM preparation meeting, 12.06.2015. 14
Multiplets Rotating coil Radial coil N = 128 Surface absolute coil = 3.84 m2 L = 3 m Width = 10 mm (for the main quad) Output ~5 V @ 1Hz for the absolute at Inom Coil sensitivity up to 15th order reduced by a third for a measurement radius of 175 mm Still possible to extrapolate the harmonics to R=180 mm CERN GSI/CEA MM preparation meeting, 12.06.2015. 15
Multiplets Rotating coil Radial coil (PCB) N = 60 (10 Turns * 6 Layers) Surface absolute coil = 1.26 m2 L = 2* 1.5 m Width = 7 mm (for the main quad) Output ~1.5 V @ 1Hz for the absolute at Inom measurement radius of 170 mm PRO CONS No need for surface calibration Very good compensation (~ 5000) weight Cost assembly Mechanical stability CERN GSI/CEA MM preparation meeting, 12.06.2015. 16
Multiplets Shaft length The one segment shaft with a fix rallonge can be used for all the multiplets (included the not standard) and to scan the longitudinal multipoles. - 3 m coils difficult winding and almost impossible to calibrate - 2 segments of ~ 1.5 m (standard winding or PCB) Reduce coil length Increase measurement time PCB boards no need of relative calibration (long quads measured with more than 1 measurements) Reduce the measurement radius to allow in situ calibration of absolute coil radius Only radial scheme and reduce measurement radius to 170 mm Increase system complexity Reduce requirements on absolute accuracy (rely on design) CERN GSI/CEA MM preparation meeting, 12.06.2015. 17
Multiplets Rotating coil: conclusions Reduce the measurements radius to 170 mm does not affect largely the coil sensitivity up to the 15th order A PCB coils shaft need only absolute calibration that could be done in situ w.r.t. a stretched wire measurements. For the relative calibration is possible to rely on the accuracy of the PCB board. In any case we need some margin on the shaft radius if we would calibrate in situ the shaft. 5% reduction of the measurement radius still allows extrapolation with a not large impact on the accuracy CERN GSI/CEA MM preparation meeting, 12.06.2015. 18
