Preliminary design considerations for Helmholtz coils at the PITZ RF photogun

Speaker

Dr Matthias Gross (DESY)

Description

Description: The student will investigate the space constraints around the
PITZ RF gun to develop Helmholtz air coils to compensate for the vertical
and horizontal components of the earth's magnetic field (residual magnetic
field in the tunnel). Two pairs of coils around the cavity of the gun should
be able to generate a static homogeneous magnetic field of ~50 uT along the
cavity axis. Simulations of the static magnetic field should also consider
the number of wire windings in conjunction with the available power supply
capability, and an estimate of the wire heating has to be done. Optionally,
residual magnetic field measurements with a Hall probe could be done.
