Magnet deliveries kicking off the year
In the last couple of months, CERN has received three magnet shipments for the HL-LHC project: the first D1 series cold mass, the sixth series D2 corrector magnet, and the second series US-AUP cryoassembly.

Recombination dipole prototype successfully tested for the LHC’s high-luminosity upgrade
The D2 prototype magnet, developed and manufactured in Italy, has been integrated and tested in the longest HL-LHC cold mass with corrector magnets from China and CERN

D2 prototype test results
The power tests of the D2 prototype were completed in May. This is the first full-size recombination dipole giving 4.5 T over a 7.8 m magnetic length, manufactured at ASG under the helm of INFN Genova.

Outcome of the 6th Cost and Schedule Review 2022
Outcome of the 6th Cost and Schedule Review 2022 By Oliver Brüning, Giovanna Vandoni, and Markus Zerlauth (CERN) Following the very successful 12th annual HL-LHC collaboration meeting, the HL-LHC project has passed its second major milestone in 2022 with the 6th Cost and Schedule Review. For this year’s ‘light’ edition, the CMAC members and external reviewers, led

MCBRD01 test results
MCBRD01 test results By Ezio Todesco, WP3 Leader (CERN) Last month, the first series D2 corrector magnet, developed in the framework of the IHEP-China in-kind contribution, was tested at CERN. The magnet was manufactured at BAMA. The test at IMP showed the ability to reach ultimate current at 4.5 K, but with a retraining not in

MCBRDP4 test results
MCBRDP4 test results By Ezio Todesco, WP3 Leader (CERN) During the past weeks, the fourth prototype of the MCBRD magnets (orbit correctors of D2 based on canted cos theta design) has been tested at CERN. This magnet was fully built at CERN 927 using standard procedures, and has reached the performance requirements. The training was initially

First D2 corrector prototype manufactured by IHEP collaboration
First D2 corrector prototype manufactured by IHEP collaboration In the past few months, the first D2 corrector prototype, built by a Chinese collaboration steered by IHEP in Beijing, has been completed. The magnet was manufactured by Western Superconducting Technologies, Xi’an and was tested at 4.2 K in the Institute of Modern Physics, Lanzhou. The magnet reached the ultimate field in both apertures, as

7th HL-LHC Collaboration Meeting, CIEMAT, Madrid, 13-16 November 2017
7th HL-LHC Collaboration Meeting, CIEMAT, Madrid, 13-16 November 2017 The HL-LHC project is progressing in the construction phase. The hardware models as well as the prototypes of equipment in their final configuration are under construction or under test. In 2017, we achieved a number of key milestones. The crab cavity prototypes for the SPS tests
