Written by a leading expert on the electromagnetic design and engineering of superconducting accelerator magnets, this book offers the most comprehensive treatment of the subject to date. In concise and easy-to-read style, the author lays out both the mathematical basis for analytical and numerical field computation and their application to magnet design and manufacture. Of special interest is the presentation of a software-based design process that has been applied to the entire production cycle of accelerator magnets from the concept phase to field optimization, production follow-up, and hardware commissioning.
Included topics:
Technological challenges for the Large Hadron Collider at CERN
Algebraic structures and vector fields
Classical vector analysis
Foundations of analytical field computation
Fields and Potentials of line currents
