Abstract
High-temperature-superconducting (HTS) cables are being considered for use in particle accelerator beam steering magnets. Knowledge of the magnetic properties of these HTS cables is needed for accelerator magnet design. Here, we present the results from a Hall probe magnetometer made for measuring the M-μ <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">0</sub> H of short sections of superconducting cables in applied magnetic fields up to 12 T. The M-μ <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">0</sub> H of a CORC cable was measured with field sweeps of ± 4.5 T and also a -2- to 8-T loop. Relevant to a particle accelerator with an injection field of 1 T, the magnetization M <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">inj</sub> of the CORC cable was ≅ 900 kA/m and the penetration field B <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">p</sub> ≅ 1 T. The magnetization and penetration field of the cables are compared to tape from which the cables were wound, and the results are compared to NbTi and Nb <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sub> Sn conductors.
