  • Abstract
    The design of the FNAL Main Injector γt-jump system calls for a special beamtube that is to be placed inside the pulsed magnets. The requirements for this beamtube include: an elliptical shaped tube that mates with the existing vacuum system, high electrical resistivity for reducing the eddy current effects, high strength for withstanding the vacuum load, and a design that facilitates simple fabrication and installation. Inconel 718 was selected to meet these criteria. Results obtained from analytical calculations, 2-D and 3-D finite element modeling, and testing of prototypes were in general agreement. The design process, analysis results, and final specifications are discussed
