Azimuthal coil size and field quality in the main CERN Large Hadron Collider dipoles
Field quality in superconducting magnets strongly depends on the geometry of the coil. Fiberglass spacers (shims) placed between the coil and the collars have been used to optimize magnetic and mechanical performances of superconducting magnets in large accelerators. A change in the shim thickness a...
