Status of the High Field Cable Test Facility at Fermilab
Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) and Lawrence Berkeley National
Laboratory (LBNL) are building a new High Field Vertical Magnet Test Facility
(HFVMTF) for testing superconducting cables in high magnetic field. The
background magnetic field of 15 T in the HFVMTF will be produced by a magnet
provided by LBNL. The HFVMTF is jointly funded by the US DOE Offices of
Science, High Energy Physics (HEP), and Fusion Energy Sciences (FES), and will
serve as a superconducting cable test facility in high magnetic fields and a
wide range of temperatures for HEP and FES communities. This facility will also
be used to test high-field superconducting magnet models and demonstrators,
including hybrid magnets, produced by the US Magnet Development Program (MDP).
The paper describes the status of the facility, including construction,
cryostat designs, top and lambda plates, and systems for powering, and quench
protection and monitoring
