MQSXFP1c and MCDXF01 test at INFN LASA
MQSXFP1c and MCDXF01 test at INFN LASA Last month, the INFN LASA team tested the third assembly of the skew quadrupole corrector magnet MQSXFP1c and the first series production high order corrector, a decapole MCDXF01. The two magnets, which were cooled together and powered individually, were tested at 4.2K and the results were extremely positive. For

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
