30-T Pulsed Magnet for Neutron Diffraction
Abstract
We describe the conceptual design for a novel water-cooled split-pair pulsed magnet for use in neutron (or x-ray) diffraction and spectroscopy experiments. The magnet will operate at 2Hz, with a pulse length of 3ms, and will accomodate samples up to 1cm in linear dimension, within a 2.5-cm bore. It will be driven by a 0.5MJ capacitor bank with repetitive charging system. Potential scientific applications will be described, along with engineering design considerations. The project is funded, and we anticipate having the magnet operating at the LANSCE pulsed spallation neutron source at Los Alamos in 1999.(Supported by Division of Basic Energy Sciences of the US DOE)
