Abstract :
The magnetic field of three scaled-radial-sector fixed field alternating gradient (FFAG)-magnets has been measured. The magnets have very large horizontal (1 m) and vertical (0.3 m) apertures to store muons and achieve phase rotation in an FFAG ring. The measurements results are compared to a three-dimensional field analysis using the TOSCA code; the generated magnetic field agrees satisfactorily with the TOSCA calculation in a range of 0.5% for a large transversal (x-y-z) area. The three magnets show satisfactory performance for use in a ten-sector ring for a high-brightness muon source.
