Design of a Solenoid Magnet for the S-DALINAC* — •Merle Seeger, Michaela Arnold, Lars Jürgensen, Norbert Pietralla, and Felix Schließmann — Institut für Kernphysik, Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany

For the electron accelerator S-DALINAC, new focusing components in the low-energy injector section are needed. Small solenoid magnets can be used to focus low-energy beams in both transverse planes simultaneously. For this purpose, a precise magnetic field is beneficial. The effect of a specific magnet geometry on the magnetic field, as well as on the particle beam, can be investigated using computer simulations. Main influences to the magnetic field that are largely independent from installation constraints include the magnet radius and the yoke shape and material. To find an optimum design for a solenoid magnet for the S-DALINAC, variations of these magnet parameters were considered. Further calculations were made regarding the wiring and cooling of the magnet. In this contribution we will present the results of the computer simulations leading to the final design of the solenoid magnet, as well as detailing the challenges of the magnet construction.
