Abstract

A series of the R&D works on the radiation resistant magnets for the Japan Hadron Facility (JHF) project has been continued at the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK). The JHF is a high-energy part of the Japanese high intensity Particle Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), which is Japanese next-generation high-intensity accelerator project. The main JHF accelerator is the 50 GeV proton synchrotron and will provide high intensity 15μA proton beam for various nuclear and particle physics experiments. This time, the actual sized completely-inorganic radiation-resistant quadrupole magnet, designed for the 50 GeV proton beam transportation, was manufactured successfully by using mineral insulation magnet cable (MIC). The assembling procedure and the test results are presented in this issue.
