Design study for superconducting main field coils for the Oak Ridge Isochronous Cyclotron
Abstract
A design study to describe the feasibility of replacing the existing ORIC coils with superconducting magnets is described. The design is quite conservative, requires no usual technology, and should result in a coil system with good reliability and durability. The operating regime of ORIC will be considerably extended, and running costs should be reduced. A proposal to continue with detailed design and coil fabrication is currently under review and has been submitted to the Nuclear Science Advisory Committee.
