Abstract :
It is pointed out that the construction of large particle accelerators and storage rings requires the design and fabrication of large numbers of bending, focusing, and correction magnets. Normal conducting iron yoke magnets are standard for low fields. Two designs representing efforts for manufacturing cost reduction are discussed. Emphasis is placed on superconducting magnets necessary for high fields. Many details of the well-established cosθ one or two layer coil design using NbTi superconductor are presented. Peculiarities in the use of Nb3Sn superconducting material are mentioned. Examples of alternative superconducting magnet designs are given. Finally, the performance of HERA (Hadron-Electron Ring Accelerator) magnets produced in quantity by industry is presented
