Abstract :
A Lambertson magnet has been designed to serve as an injector into the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The design is predicted to achieve field uniformity of DB/B <6×10-4 at B0=9.5 KG transverse to the beam direction over the width of the beam path and stray fields in RHIC´s circulating beam pipe of less than 0.2 Gauss. In addition, the magnet is ultra-high vacuum compatible in that only the insides of the beam tubes are exposed to the vacuum and the entire assembly is bakeable in situ to 300°C
