  • Abstract
    The development of high-gradient superconducting quadrupole magnets for the LHC interaction regions has been carried out. The mechanical design has been optimized with the two-shell coil structure tightly fixed by thin non-magnetic collars and by iron-yoke with keys. The mechanical rigidity is fully achieved at room temperature. The paper describes the mechanical design characteristics and analysis of mechanical tolerances and the influence on the field quality.
