Field quality of the short superconducting dipole models for the LHC

A full characterization of the magnetic field in warm and cold conditions was performed as a part of the standard test on the LHC 1-m long superconducting dipole models. Furthermore, dedicated measurement campaigns addressed the effect of current cycles and quenches on field quality. Powering and quenches were found to generate characteristic instabilities in the geometric harmonics. Detailed results are presented on this phenomenon, as well as correlations between warm and cold measurements and field reconstructions.
