Abstract :
The superconducting magnet system for the ATLAS detector at the LHC at CERN comprises a barrel toroid, two end cap toroids and a central solenoid with overall dimensions of 20 m diameter by 26 m length and a stored energy of 1.6 GJ. Common proximity cryogenic and electrical systems for the toroids are implemented. The cryogenic system provides the cooling power for the 3 toroid magnets considered as a single cold mass (600 tons) and for the CS. The 21 kA toroid and the 8 kA solenoid electrical circuits comprise both a switch-mode power supply, two circuit breakers, water cooled bus bars, He cooled current leads and the diode-resistor ramp-down unit. The vacuum system consists of a group of primary rotary pumps and sets of high vacuum diffusion pumps connected to each individual cryostat. The magnet safety system guarantees the magnet protection and human safety through slow and fast dump treatment. The magnet control system ensures control, regulation and monitoring of the operation of the magnets. The updated design, layout, development and construction of the systems, as well as the first results of prototyping and commissioning are presented.
