Abstract :
A compact R&D RF linac is being built at Fermilab to study several key technologies related to accelerating high intensity beams. One of the goals is reduction of beam losses through the use of solenoid lenses in the low energy front end of the linac. A total of 23 compact, high field, superconducting solenoids have been procured by Fermilab for the first (room-temperature RF) section of the linac. In this report we summarize the quench and magnetic performance of the lenses.
