Abstract

Two Cu stabilized Nb <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sub> Al strands, Fl (Nb matrix) and F3 (Ta matrix), fabricated at NIMS were wound into Rutherford cables at Fermilab in collaboration with NIMS. A small race-track magnet using Fl Rutherford cable, the first Nb <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sub> Al dipole magnet in the world, was constructed and tested to full current at Fermilab. This magnet was tested extensively to full short sample data and its quench characteristics were studied and reported. The 3-D magnetic field calculation was done with ANSYS to find the peak field. The quench characteristics of the magnet are explained with the characteristics of the Nb <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sub> Al strand and Rutherford cable. The small racetrack magnet built using Ta matrix F3 strand was constructed and will be tested in the near future. The advantages and disadvantages of these Nb <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sub> Al cables are briefly discussed.
