Abstract

Superconducting low-beta quadrupole magnets for the LHC insertion regions are being developed at KEK as part of the collaboration between CERN and KEK. Magnet production technology developed at KEK has been transferred to a manufacturer of production magnets. In order to verify the production technology, fabrication jigs, tools, and procedures, the first full-scale prototype, MQXA-P1, was fabricated. Mechanical characteristics of MQXA-P1 were measured during magnet assembly process, and it satisfied specifications needed for the production magnets. Validity of the magnet design and fabrication method was confirmed.
