Abstract
Permanent magnet quadrupoles (PMQ) and sextupoles (PMSx) have been fabricated and tested. Their effective strengths are variable. The PMQ has been developed as a final focus magnet for a linear collider. There is enough space to put Gluckstern's 5-ring singlet structures in each incoming beam line. The magnetic center offsets and higher harmonic components can be adjusted by adjusting the positions of the magnet pieces with screws on holders. The measured integrated gradient can be reduced down to less than 1% of the maximum strength. The PMSx has been developed to focus pulsed cold neutrons for a small angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiment. The strength is modulated by a so called double ring structure, where the inner ring is fixed and the outer ring is rotated. A torque canceller can reduce the torque to rotate the outer ring by one third of its original magnitude. The focal length of the fabricated triplet lens is less than 50 cm for Very Cold Neutrons (VCN). It is demonstrated that VCN-SANS can shorten a SANS beamline, which usually has a few tens of meters, down to 2~3 meters.
