The first Q1/Q3 cryoassembly hits the road!
The first cryoassembly containing the first two Nb3Sn series magnets manufactured by the HL-LHC US Accelerator Upgrade Program (US-AUP) has just begun its journey to CERN. This cryoassembly, which has successfully passed cold testing and reached acceptance performance, is travelling from Fermilab (Illinois, US) to the East coast for shipment by cargo in early November…
