The Engineering Design of the 1.5 m Diameter Solenoid for the MICE RFCC Modules

Abstract

The RF coupling coil (RFCC) module of MICE is where muons that have been cooled within the MICE absorber focus (AFC) modules are re-accelerated to their original longitudinal momentum. The RFCC module consists of four 201.25 MHz RF cavities in a 1.4 meter diameter vacuum vessel. The muons are kept within the RF cavities by the magnetic field generated by a superconducting coupling solenoid that goes around the RF cavities. The coupling solenoid will be cooled using a pair of 4 K pulse tube cooler that will generate 1.5 W of cooling at 4.2 K. The magnet will be powered using a 300 A two-quadrant power supply. This report describes the ICST engineering design of the coupling solenoid for MICE.
