Design and performance of an in-vacuum, magnetic field mapping system for the Muon g-2 experiment

The Muon g - 2 experiment at Fermilab (E989) aims to measure the anomalous magnetic moment, a μ , of the muon with a precision of 140 parts-per-billion. This requires a precise measurement of both the anomalous spin precession frequency, ω α , of muons stored in a magnetic field of 1.45 T, and a precise measurement of that magnetic field in terms of the shielded proton Larmor frequency, ω' ρ . The measurement of ω' ρ with a total systematic uncertainty of 70 parts-perbillion involves a combination of various nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) probes. There are 378 probes mounted in fixed locations that constantly monitor field drifts. A water-based, cylindrical calibration probe provides the calibration in terms of the shielded proton Larmor frequency. A crucial element for the multi-step measurement of ω' ρ is the regular mapping of the magnetic field over the muon storage region. The former experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) employed an in-vacuum field mapping system equipped with 17 NMR probes, which was developed by the University of Heidelberg. We have refurbished and upgraded this system with new probes and electronics. The upgrades include the addition of 16-bit, 1 MSPS digitization of the NMR signals, which replaced the hardware-implemented zero-crossing counting of the system at Brookhaven. The digitized signals offer new capabilities in the NMR frequency analysis and its related systematic uncertainties. To sustain the higher data rates, a new communication scheme with time-division multiplexing was implemented to separate the important NMR reference clock from the data communication in order to reach the specifications for the accuracy and stability of the reference clock. A new barcode reader provides more precise azimuthal position determination during the measurement and calibration. While the mechanical systems that move the field mapper inside the storage ring have been mostly refurbished from BNL, the motion control system was completely replaced with a custom-built electronics centered around a commercial Galil motion controller. Both the field mapping NMR system and its motion control were successfully commissioned at Fermilab and have been in reliable operation during the first three data taking periods of the experiment at Fermilab. Finally, this article will provide the details of the upgrades of the field mapper and its performance.

Penetration through Slots in Cylindrical Cavities Operating at Fundamental Cavity Modes in the Presence of Electromagnetic Absorbers

Placing microwave absorbing materials into a high-quality factor resonant cavity may in general reduce the large interior electromagnetic fields excited under external illumination. In this study, we aim to combine two analytical models we previously developed: 1) an unmatched formulation for frequencies below the slot resonance to model shielding effectiveness versus frequency; and 2) a perturbation model approach to estimate the quality factor of cavities in the presence of absorbers. The resulting model realizes a toolkit with which design guidelines of the absorber's properties and location can be optimized over a frequency band. Analytic predictions of shielding effectiveness for three transverse magnetic modes for various locations of the absorber placed on the inside cavity wall show good agreement with both full-wave simulations and experiments, and validate the proposed model. This analysis opens new avenues for specialized ways to mitigate harmful fields within cavities.

Distinguishing electronic contributions of surface and sub-surface transition metal atoms in Ti-based MXenes

MXenes are a rapidly-expanding family of 2D transition metal carbides and nitrides that have attracted attention due to their excellent performance in applications ranging from energy storage to electromagnetic interference shielding. Numerous other electronic and magnetic properties have been computationally predicted, but not yet realized due to the experimental difficulty in obtaining uniform surface terminations (T x ), necessitating new design approaches for MXenes that are independent of surface groups. In this study, we distinguished the contributions of surface and sub-surface Ti atoms to the electronic structure of four Ti-based MXenes (Ti 2 CT x , Ti 3 C 2 T x , Cr 2 TiC 2 T x , and Mo 2 TiC 2 T x ) using soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy, revealing minimal changes in the spectral features between the parent MAX phase and its MXene when no surface Ti atoms are present in the MXene, such as Mo 2 TiC 2 T x and Cr 2 TiC 2 T x . In contrast, for MXenes with surface Ti atoms, here Ti 3 C 2 T x and Ti 2 CT x , the Ti L-edge spectra are significantly modified compared to their parent MAX phase compounds. First principles calculations provide similar trends in the partial density of states derived from surface and interior Ti atoms, corroborating the spectroscopic measurements. Furthermore, these results reveal that electronic states derived from sub-surface M-site layers are largely unperturbed by the surface groups, indicating a relatively short length scale over which the T x groups alter the nominal electron count associated with Ti atoms and suggesting that desired band features should be hosted by sub-surface M-sites that are electronically more robust than their surface M-site counterparts.

Interplay between magnetism and superconductivity in UTe 2

Time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) in UTe 2 was inferred from observations of a spontaneous Kerr response in the superconducting state after cooling in zero magnetic field, while a finite c-axis magnetic field training was further used to determine the nature of the nonunitary composite order parameter of this material. Here, we present an extensive study of the magnetic-field-trained Kerr effect, which unveils a unique critical state of pinned “ferromagnetic vortices.” We show that a remanent Kerr signal appears following the removal of a training magnetic field, which reflects the response to the TRSB order parameter and the external magnetic field through the paramagnetic susceptibility. Furthermore, this unambiguously demonstrates the importance of the magnetic fluctuations and their intimate relation to the composite order parameter. Focusing the beam on the center of the sample, we are able to accurately determine the maximum field that is screened by the critical state and the respective critical current. Measurements in the presence of magnetic field show the tendency of the superconductor to produce shielding currents that oppose the increase in vortex-induced magnetization due to the diverging paramagnetic susceptibility.

ORNL_AISD_NiPt

This dataset describes the nickel-platinum (NiPt) solid solution binary alloy, where the two constituent elements nickel (Ni) and platinum (Pt) are randomly placed on the face centered cubic (FCC) crystal structure, with the lattice constant of 3.840 angstroms. The dataset comprises data for three different sizes of the crystal structure: 256 atoms, 864 atoms, and 2,048 atoms, each of which contains 1900 configurations. For each size of the crystal structure, the data set was generated for concentrations ranging from 0at% of Pt to 100at% of Pt in the NiPt binary system, with increasing the concentration of Pt in the system every 5at%. For each one of the chemical compositions, 100 random configurations were generated, each with a different random seed. Each of the output files contains the mass, type, atomic coordinates, energy per atom, and forces in x, y, and z directions respectively. For each atomic configuration, the output was collected every 150 steps during the minimization stage and every 1000 steps during the replica exchange stage. Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator (LAMMPS) [1], which is a molecular dynamics code, was used to generate data for NiPt alloy. The simulation used the interatomic potential for NiPt binary system MEAM_LAMMPS_KimSeolJi_2017_PtNi__MO_020840179467_001 [3] from the OpenKIM library (Open Knowledgebase of Interatomic Models) [2]. This potential was developed based on the second nearest-neighbor modified embedded-atom method (2NN MEAM). The simulation process begins with the generation of the random NiPt structure and follows with the short minimization and replica exchange simulation. The minimization procedure adjusts atomic coordinates and performs energy minimization, which typically leads to a local potential energy minimum. The method used for the minimization was the conjugate gradient algorithm. A short replica exchange (parallel tempering) simulation involves four replicas (ensembles) of a system and follows the minimization stage. Multiple snapshots of the configuration were collected during the minimization and replica exchange stages. NiPt alloy is interesting due to its magnetic and charge transfer properties [4]. The data is provided in three compressed zipped folders: atoms256.zip, atoms864.zip, atoms2048.zip Each zipped folder contains the data that describes crystals of size 256 atoms, 864 atoms, and 2,048 atoms respectively. Each one of the three zipped folders contains the data structured in the following way: -Ni_ground_state.cfg --> atomic configuration for the pure nickel -Pt_ground_state.cfg --> atomic configuration for the pure platinum -Pt#_filtered --> folders containing atomic configurations for #at% concentration of platinum. The folder contains 100 atomic configurations, each saved in a subfolder. Each subfolder named config* is associated with a specific atomic configuration. Each of these subfolders contains files with .cfg format, corresponding to outputs for each atomic configuration The total number of atomic configurations contained in atoms256.zip is 65,046. The total number of atomic configurations contained in atoms864.zip is 63,936. The total number of atomic configurations contained in atoms2048.zip is 61,997.

Magnetohydrodynamic simulations preliminarily predict the habitability and radio emission of TRAPPIST-1e

TRAPPIST-1e, an Earth-sized exoplanet in the habitable zone of the nearby M dwarf TRAPPIST-1, may experience magnetospheric responses that vary with stellar space weather, which could potentially influence both its habitability and radio emissions. Our objective is to investigate how different Earth-like magnetospheric configurations of TRAPPIST-1e – specifically variations in dipolar magnetic field strength and axial tilt – respond to diverse stellar space weather conditions, including events analogous to coronal mass ejections (CMEs), and to assess their implications for potential habitability and expected radio emissions. We conducted 3D magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the TRAPPIST-1e system using the PLUTO code in spherical coordinates. The planetary magnetic field was modelled as dipolar, with equatorial strengths from Earth-like to several times stronger. The dipole axis spans a representative range of axial tilts. We investigate four stellar wind environments, from sub-Alfvénic flow to CME-like disturbances. Planetary shielding was quantified based on the magnetopause standoff distance, and radio powers were estimated via empirical scaling laws. Our simulations show that both shielding and radio power depend strongly on the magnetic configuration. Stronger fields increase protection, while larger tilts reduce it. Radio power increases with both field strength and tilt across all wind regimes. An Earth-like magnetic field can provide effective shielding even under intense CMEs, whereas high tilts require stronger fields. Predicted radio powers reach ~10 20 erg s −1 during CMEs, making bursts from close-in, magnetised planets more detectable. However, for TRAPPIST-1e, the maximum cyclotron frequency lies below the Earth’s ionospheric cutoff (~10 MHz), making ground-based detection currently infeasible.

Modeling a ring magnet in ALEGRA

We show here that Sandia's ALEGRA software can be used to model a permanent magnet in 2D and 3D, with accuracy matching that of the open-source commercial software FEMM. This is done by conducting simulations and experimental measurements for a commercial-grade N42 neodymium alloy ring magnet with a measured magnetic field strength of approximately 0.4 T in its immediate vicinity. Transient simulations using ALEGRA and static simulations using FEMM are conducted. Comparisons are made between simulations and measurements, and amongst the simulations, for sample locations in the steady-state magnetic field. The comparisons show that all models capture the data to within 7%. The FEMM and ALEGRA results agree to within approximately 2%. The most accurate solutions in ALEGRA are obtained using quadrilateral or hexahedral elements. In the case where iron shielding disks are included in the magnetized space, ALEGRA simulations are considerably more expensive because of the increased magnetic diffusion time, but FEMM and ALEGRA results are still in agreement. The magnetic field data are portable to other software interfaces using the Exodus file format.

Evidence of vapor shielding effect on heat flux loaded on flowing liquid lithium limiter in EAST

For this study, a lithium (Li) vapour layer was formed around a flowing liquid Li limiter to shield against the plasma incident power and reduce limiter heat flux in the EAST tokamak. The results revealed that after a plasma operation of a few seconds, the layer became clear, which indicated a strong Li emission with a decrease in the limiter surface temperature. This emission resulted in a dense vapour around the limiter, and Li ions moved along the magnetic field to form a green shielding layer on the limiter. The plasma heat flux loaded on the limiter, measured by the probe installed on the limiter, was approximately 52% lower than that detected by a fast-reciprocating probe at the same radial position without the limiter in EAST. Additionally, approximately 42% of the parallel heat flux was dissipated directly with the enhanced Li radiation in the discharge with the liquid metal infused trenches (LIMIT) limiter. This observation revealed that the Li vapour layer exhibited an excellent shielding effect to liquid Li on plasma heat flux, which is a possible benefit of liquid-plasma-facing components in future fusion devices.

Pulsating Heat Pipes for Accelerator Magnets. Phase I Final Report

The primary objective of the Phase 1 award was to investigate the performance of cryogenic pulsating heat pipes (PHPs) and their use in practical large superconducting magnet systems. PHPs exhibit an effective thermal conductivity an order of magnitude and more over high purity metals such as copper and aluminum. They can therefore be utilized to reduce cold mass and effectively transfer heat from the magnet system components such as the coil pack, shields, or current leads to cryocoolers or cryogen reservoirs.

Conceptual Design of DUNE Near Detector Superconducting Magnet System

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) has formed a near detector design group (NDDG) tasked with delivering a CDR by the end of 2019. The DUNE Near Detectors will be housed in an underground hall on the Fermilab site. The two main detector systems are a liquid argon detector and a high-pressure gas time projection chamber (HPgTPC). The HPgTPC requires a magnet that generates a 0.5 T solenoidal magnetic field in a large volume of 6 m diameter, and 5 m length. Herein, we present a superconducting magnet system design. We investigated: an open air core magnet with three coils, and a five coils system having two active fringe field shielding coils. Coils positions were optimized to obtain the specified field homogeneity in the magnet good field region, while minimizing the Lorentz forces and the superconductor volume. We discuss the magnetic, mechanical, and thermal conceptual designs.

Preliminary design of a helium cryogenic system for SAND detector at LBNF-DUNE near site

The Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF) is providing a helium cryogenic system to support the superconducting solenoid magnet of the System for on-Axis Neutrino Detection (SAND) for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) Near Site at Fermilab in Batavia, IL. The design started in 2020 and construction is set to begin in the mid 2020‘s.The helium cryogenic system primarily consists of a helium refrigerator system, distribution valve boxes, vacuum-jacketed helium and nitrogen transfer lines, warm gaseous helium transfer system, instruments and control system, and gaseous helium storage tanks. It is designed to provide supercritical helium at around 3 bara and 5 K with expansion from 3 to 1.2 bara in the SAND cryostat and 70K forced cold gas helium to cool the thermal shields of the SAND cryostat. The SAND superconductive magnet is indirectly cooled through a liquid helium thermosiphon cycle. A pair of 3 kA leads is cooled by the gas helium vaporized from the liquid helium reservoir in the cryostat turret. The helium system will share the liquid nitrogen tank and liquid nitrogen phase separator with the Near Site Liquid Argon system. The helium recycle compressor system, GHe tanks and LN2 tank will be located on the Surface. The cryogenic facilities including refrigerator cold box, valve boxes and LN2 phase separator will be located on the shaft cryo-mezzanine in the underground cavern. The shaft connecting surface and cavern is more than 60 meter deep. The helium vacuum-jacketed transfer line between the cold box and the SAND magnet is more than 50 meter long. This paper presents the preliminary design of the helium cryogenic system including the design scheme, process flow diagram, heat load estimates, layout plan and so on.

Final Report on the Measurement of the Positive Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment at Fermilab to 127 ppb

This report details the final measurement of the muon magnetic anomaly, $a_μ=(g_μ-2)/2$, by the Muon $g-2$ experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL), using positive muons collected from 2021 to 2023. The value of $a_μ$ is determined from the ratio of the anomalous spin precession frequency to the shielded proton precession frequency in the muon storage ring magnetic field, combined with external constants known at the 22 ppb level. The new dataset, containing over $2.5$ times the statistics of our previous results, yields $a_μ=116\,592\,0710(162)\times 10^{-12}$ (139 ppb), or $a_μ=116\,592\,0705(148)\times 10^{-12}$ (127 ppb) when combined with our previous results. The new experimental world average, dominated by the measurements at FNAL, is $a_μ^{\text{Exp}}=116\,592\,0715(145)\times 10^{-12}$ (124 ppb).

A major design challenge is external, time-varying magnetic fields, the effect of which can mimic gravitational waves or expected dark matter signals; static magnetic fields must also be tightly controlled to manage measurement resolution. Several tools are being applied to the problem, including mu-metal shielding, field biasing, and a suite of magnetometers.

Nuclear magnetic resonance dark-matter searches are sensitive to dark photons and the axion-photon coupling

We demonstrate that nuclear magnetic resonance based searches for dark matter (DM) have intrinsic and powerful sensitivity to dark photons and the axion-photon coupling. The reason is conceptually straightforward. An instrument such as CASPEr-Gradient begins with a large sample of nuclear spins polarized in a background magnetic field. In the presence of axion DM coupled to nucleons, the spin ensemble feels an effective magnetic field 𝐁 ∝ ∇𝑎 that tilts the spins, generating a potentially observable precession. If the magnetic field is real rather than effective, the system responds identically. A real field can be generated by a kinetically mixed dark photon within the shielded region the sample is placed or an axion coupled to photons through its interaction with the background magnetic field. We show that all three signals are detectable and distinguishable. If CASPEr-Gradient were to reach the QCD axion prediction of the axion-nucleon coupling, it would simultaneously be sensitive to kinetic mixings of 𝜀 ≃ 3 × 10 −16 and axion-photon couplings of 𝑔 𝑎⁢𝛾⁢𝛾 ≃ 2 × 10 −16 GeV −1 for 𝑚 ≃ 1 𝜇⁢eV. Our analysis demonstrates that CASPEr-Gradient has the tantalizing possibility of simultaneously measuring two separate couplings of axion dark matter, thereby providing a unique window into the axion’s UV completion.

INVESTIGATION OF THE MULTILAYER SHIELDING EFFECT THROUGH NbTiN-AlN COATED BULK NIOBIUM

Superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities, composed of bulk niobium (Nb), are extensively utilized in particle accelerators. To optimize their performance and extend their operational range, thin films of superconducting materials are applied to the Nb surfaces. This study focuses on investigating the magnetic field penetration characteristics of NbTiN-AlN coating on bulk niobium. The experimental setup involves measuring the magnetic field penetration across flat superconducting samples at cryogenic temperatures. One key parameter of interest is the field just before the first flux penetration, Bp which enables the observation of the multilayer shielding effect on bulk niobium under high magnetic fields. The study reveals a significant enhancement in Bp of the NbTiN-AlN coated Nb samples compared to bare Nb samples. This property holds critical importance for achieving high field performance in SRF cavities. Furthermore, the study explores the relationship between coating thickness and Bp corroborating the theoretical predictions.
