Abstract

The SIS100 synchrotron for heavy ion research is based on fast-ramped superconducting magnets. These superferric magnets are being designed, built, and tested. The first 3-m-long series dipole (maximum field of 1.9 T; ramp rate of 4 T/s) has been built. We present the test results obtained (quench training, magnetic field, ac loss, and repetition rate) and compare them with the predicted values and the required operation parameters.
