Abstract :
The Texas Accelerator Center has designed, constructed and tested 26 accelerator magnets. The magnets are 3 tesla superferric magnets. Three currents are used to fix the dipole field and zero the sextupole and decapole. High quality magnets, which are simple and inexpensive, are obtained. Three 28 meter magnets have been constructed in industry as well as five 1 meter magnets.
