ROTATIONAL EVOLUTION OF MAGNETARS IN THE PRESENCE OF A FALLBACK DISK

Magnetars may have a strong surface dipole field. Observationally, two magnetars may have passive fallback disks. In the presence of a fallback disk, the rotational evolution of magnetars may be changed. In the self-similar fallback disk model, it is found that (1) when the disk mass is significantly lower than 10{sup −6} M {sub ⊙}, the magnetar is unaffected by the fallback disk and it will be a normal magnetar. (2) When the disk mass is high but the surface dipole field of the magnetar is about or below 10{sup 14} G, the magnetar will also be a normal magnetar. A magnetar plus a passive fallback disk system is expected. This may correspond to the observations of magnetars 4U 0142+61 and 1E 2259+586. (3) When the disk mass is high and the surface dipole field of the magnetar is as high as 4 × 10{sup 15} G, the magnetar will evolve from the ejector phase to the propeller phase, and then enter rotational equilibrium. The magnetar will be slowed down quickly in the propeller phase. The final rotational period can be as high 2 × 10{sup 4} s. This may correspond to the super-slow magnetar in the supernova remnant RCW 103. Therefore, the three types of magnetars can be understood in a unified way.

Optics and Systems Design of the Ring-to-Second Target Transport Beam-Line for the SNS Second Target Station

The Second Target Station (STS) project at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is being developed to provide world-leading cold neutron brightness for next-generation neutron scattering experiments. The STS Accelerator Systems (AS) scope includes the design and implementation of the Ring-to-Second Target (RTST) proton beam transport line, which extracts 1.3 GeV proton beam pulses from the existing Ring-to-Beam Transport (RTBT) system and delivers them to the STS target. The RTST design emphasizes operational reliability [high reliability], low activation [minimum activation of components and the tunnel], maintainability, and compatibility with existing SNS infrastructure through extensive reuse of proven RTBT systems and components. The beamline includes a new extraction region, a transport lattice consisting of dipole, quadrupole, and corrector magnets, beam instrumentation systems, vacuum systems, personnel protection systems, and radiation shielding systems. Beam optics and particle tracking studies were performed using PyORBIT to validate extraction trajectories, beam transport, and target beam spot requirements [60–90 cm² beam spot area]. This paper presents the optics design philosophy, extraction system architecture, transport lattice design, instrumentation strategy, vacuum system approach, and radiation protection integration for the RTST beamline. Particle tracking simulations indicate successful beam transport without beam loss under nominal operating conditions. The RTST is designed to transport 1.3 GeV proton beam pulses at repetition rates up to 15 Hz, delivering nominal beam power of 700 kW to the Second Target Station.

Commissioning, Performance, and Effect of the Quench Current-Boosting Device on a Dedicated Superconducting Magnet

Superconducting magnet training is one of the accelerator related issues attracting attention due to significant operational costs and time budget associated to it. It is especially worrisome that magnets based on the “next-generation” Nb 3 Sn technology are affected by long training. While various efforts are underway to better understand and resolve the problem a parallel path could also be investigated, a path bypassing the issue. Following the concept of fast induced over-current during magnet powering, FNAL has developed an upgradable capacitor-based device to discharge through a superconducting magnet at quench detection or operator chosen time. The 0.4 F/1 kV device has been tested on a 1-m-long dipole-coil in a “mirror” magnet configuration and conclusive results on magnet training elimination have been observed. Here in this paper we discuss the main characteristics of the device, compare simulated response and actual performance, elaborate on test drivers and outcomes. Next steps and perspectives for future use are debated.

Measurements of Dynamic Effects in FNAL 11 T Nb 3 Sn Dipole Models

Fermilab, in collaboration with CERN, has developed a twin-aperture 11 T Nb 3 Sn dipole suitable for the high-luminosity LHC upgrade. During 2012-2014, a 2-m long single-aperture dipole demonstrator and three 1-m long single-aperture dipole models were fabricated by FNAL and tested at its Vertical Magnet Test Facility. Collared coils from two of the 1-m long models were then used to assemble the first twin-aperture dipole demonstrator. This magnet had extensive testing in 2015-2016, including quench performance, quench protection, and field quality studies. Here, this paper reports the results of measurements of persistent current effects in the single-aperture and twin-aperture 11 T Nb 3 Sn dipoles and compares them with similar measurements in previous NbTi magnets

Superconducting Magnet Performance in LCLS-II Cryomodules

New LCLS-II Linear Superconducting Accelerator Cry-omodules are under construction at Fermilab. Installed in-side each SCRF Cryomodule is a superconducting magnet package to focus and steer an electron beam. The magnet package is an iron dominated configuration with conduc-tively cooled racetrack-type quadrupole and dipole coils. For easier installation the magnet can be split in the vertical plane. Initially the magnet was tested in a liquid helium bath, and high precision magnetic field measurements were performed. The first (prototype) Cryomodule with the magnet inside was built and successfully tested at Fermilab test facility. In this paper the magnet package is discussed, the Cryomodule magnet test results and current leads con-duction cooling performance are presented. So far magnets in nine Cryomodules were successfully tested at Fermilab.

Snake River Plain Geothermal Play Fairway Analysis Project MT Data

MT is measured in the field by using induction coils to measure the time-varying magnetic source for frequencies between 1000-0.001~Hz, and electric dipoles to measure the Earth's electrical response. Because the magnetic source field is polarized, orthogonal directions of the fields need to be measured to get a complete description of the fields. In all measurements collected for this project, induction coils and electric dipoles were aligned with geomagnetic north and east. MT data were collected at 22 stations with a ZEN 32-bit data logger developed by Zonge International, magnetic fields were measured with ANT-4 induction coils, and electric fields where measured with Ag-AgCl reference electrodes from Borin on 50~m dipoles. The data was collected on a repeating schedule of 10~min at 4096~samples/s and 7 hours and 50 minutes at 256 samples/s over a 20-24 hour period. To convert time series data into the frequency domain and get estimations of the impedance tensor, the processing code BIRRP was used (Chave & Thompson 2004). Simultaneous measurements were used as remote references to reduce noise and bias in the data. Chave, A. D., & Thomson, D. J. 2004. Bounded inuence magnetotelluric response function estimation.

Single-particle and dipole excitations in Co 62

An extensive study of the level structure of 62 Co has been performed following a complex multinucleon transfer reaction, 26 Mg( 48 Ca, 2α3npγ) 62 Co, at beam energies of 275, 290, and 320 MeV. The combination of the Gammasphere array, the fragment mass analyzer, and a focal-plane ionization chamber was used to identify and delineate excited levels in 62 Co. A considerable extension to the 62 Co level scheme is proposed with firm spin-parity values assigned on the basis of angular distribution and correlation analyses. Here, various level sequences built upon states of single-particle character have been observed, and an interpretation of these structures in the framework of the spherical shell model is presented. At moderate spins, two dipole bands have been observed and, based on their phenomenological study, a possible magnetic rotation character is suggested. However, theoretical calculations performed using the particle rotor model support magnetic rotation for only one of these dipole bands.

The Jefferson Lab Electron Ion Collider (JLEIC) is a pro-posed new machine for nuclear physics research. It uses the existing CEBAF accelerator as a full energy injector to deliver 3 to 12 GeV electrons into a new electron collider ring. An all new ion accelerator and collider complex will deliver up to 200 GeV protons. The machine has luminosity goals of 1034 cm-2 sec-1. The whole detector region including forward detection covers about 80 meters of the JLEIC complex. The interaction region design has recently been optimized to accommodate 200 GeV proton energy using conventional NbTi superconducting magnet technology. This paper will describe the requirements and preliminary designs for both the ion and electron beam magnets in the most complex 34.5 m long interaction region (IR) around the interaction point (IP). The interaction region has over thirty-four superconducting magnets operating at 4.5K; these include dipoles, quadrupoles, skew quadrupoles, solenoids, horizontal and vertical correctors and higher order multipole magnets. The paper will also dis-cuss the electromagnetic interaction between these magnets.

Model Proposed to Calculate the Exchange Interaction in Ni/Pt Multilayers

The behavior of spin waves is mainly influenced by all parameters that characterize the magnetic material such as exchange interactions, surface and volume anisotropy effects, dipole interactions, and phase transitions and imperfections. In this article, we develop a simple calculation model based on a ferromagnetic anisotropic system that has allowed us to obtain numerical estimates for the Pt exchange interaction and the interlayer coupling force at various Ni/Pt multilayers.

Performance of Superconducting Magnet Prototypes for LCLS-II Linear Accelerator

The new LCLS-II Linear Superconducting Accelerator at SLAC needs superconducting magnet packages installed inside SCRF Cryomodules to focus and steer an electron beam. Two magnet prototypes were built and successfully tested at Fermilab. Magnets have an iron dominated configuration, quadrupole and dipole NbTi superconducting coils, and splittable in the vertical plane configuration. Magnets inside the Cryomodule are conductively cooled through pure Al heat sinks. Both magnets performance was verified by magnetic measurements at room temperature, and during cold tests in liquid helium. Test results including magnetic measurements are discussed. Special attention was given to the magnet performance at low currents where the iron yoke and the superconductor hysteresis effects have large influence. Both magnet prototypes were accepted for the installation in FNAL and JLAB prototype Cryomodules.

Conceptual Design of the Interaction Region Magnets for Future Electron-Ion Collider at Jefferson Lab

The Jefferson Lab Electron Ion Collider (JLEIC) is a proposed new machine for nuclear physics research. As proposed, it will deliver between 15 and 65 GeV center of mass energy collisions between electrons and nuclei. It uses the existing CEBAF accelerator as a full energy injector to deliver 3 to 10 GeV electrons into a new electron collider ring. An all new ion accelerator and collider complex will deliver up to 100 GeV protons, or 40 GeV/nucleon ions. The machine will have luminosity goals of above 1033 cm-2 sec-1 in the whole energy range with a maximum of a few 1034 cm-2 sec-1. The two collider rings use a unique figure-of eight layout to deliver a high degree of polarization in both beams. The machine will include room for two interaction regions with only one initially installed. The crossing angle in the primary interaction region will be 50 mrad. The whole detector region including forward detection covers about 80 meters of the JLEIC complex. This paper will describe the requirements and preliminary designs for both the ion and electron beam magnets in the most complex 32 m long interaction region (IR) around the interaction point (IP). The interaction region has over thirty-seven superconducting magnets operating at 4.5K; these include dipoles, quadrupoles, skew-quadrupoles, solenoids, horizontal and vertical correctors and higher order multipole magnets. The paper will also discuss the electromagnetic interaction between these magnets.

The Design of B1APF Dipole for the EIC

Brookhaven National Laboratory has been chosen to host the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). Part of this is to install an additional electron ring to the existing RHIC tunnel. The electron hadron Interaction Region (IR) will host nine superconducting magnets on the forward side and six superconducting magnets on the rear side of the Interaction Point (IP). B1APF dipole is the last magnet of the near IR in the outgoing hadron direction. Further, the magnet has a physical aperture of 370 mm diameter and is 1.5 m long. This large aspect ratio makes this magnet particularly challenging. It is a collared magnet and uses a NbTi Rutherford cable with 15.1 mm X 1.9 mm. It is expected to operate at a maximum current of 13400 A at 2 K. The required integrated dipole field is 4.05 Tm. This paper discusses the current design status of the B1ApF dipole and presents the electromagnetic analysis and thermal quench propagation analysis.

Quasi-one-dimensional Ising-like antiferromagnetism in the rare-earth perovskite oxide TbScO 3

The rare-earth perovskite TbScO 3 has been widely used as a substrate for the growth of epitaxial ferroelectric and multiferroic thin films, while its detailed low-temperature magnetic properties were rarely reported. In this paper, we performed detailed magnetization, specific heat, and single crystal neutron scattering measurements, along with the crystalline electric field calculations to study the low-temperature magnetic properties of TbScO 3. All our results suggest the magnetic Tb 3+ has an Ising-like pseudo-doublet ground state at low temperatures. Due to the constrain of local point symmetry, these Tb 3+ Ising moments are confined in the ab plane with a tilt angle of φ=±48° to the a axis. In zero field, the system undergoes an antiferromagnetic phase transition at T N =2.53 K, and forms a G x A y noncollinear magnetic structure below T N . Here, we find the dipole-dipole interactions play an important role to determine the magnetic ground state, which are also responsible for the quasi-one-dimensional magnetism in TbScO 3 . The significant anisotropic diffuse scatterings further confirm the quasi-one-dimensional magnetism along the c axis. The magnetic phase diagram with the field along the easy b axis is well established. In addition to the G x A y antiferromagnetic state, there is an exotic field-induced phase emerged near the critical field B c ≃0.7 T, where three-dimensional magnetic order is suppressed but strong one-dimensional correlations may still exist.
