Operation of HFTF to test the MIT 12 T coil
Abstract
The MIT coil tested in HFTF to a peak field of very nearly 12 T. The accomplishment is noteworthy as a demonstration of reactor relevant superconductors to high field in a realistic coil environment. Just the operation of the High Field Test Facility (HPTF) in providing the necessary test conditions is also no trivial feat. This note reports the work involved in testing the MIT 12T coil, with emphasis given to the test facility itself. Data specific to the MIT coil are relegated to appendices.
