Abstract

Upgrades presently being planned for high-energy hadron colliders require magnet performance beyond the capabilities of NbTi superconducting wire. Recent improvements in the performance of Nb3 Sn material and in the capability to use it in practical magnets make it the logical choice for the next generation of accelerator magnets. We discuss recent results of R&D programs, some remaining issues and possible solutions. Recent progress in understanding and in technical details of design and assembly have made Nb3Sn magnets easier to fabricate and more reliable in performance
