Only the lenses are simulated. Ideal matrix is used instead of matching sections. Schematic and idea of the channel (V.Balbekov, MCD Workshop, Dec. 2009) Main parts of the channel: Blue – solenoid coils Red -- Li lenses Green – 200 MHz cavities Transition from high to low field region is adiabatic itself. Li lens should provide the adiavatic transition from (+) field to (-) one Li rod should have a special form to provide the adiabaticity (example) With solenoid field B and lens gradient G, beta – function is: Adiabaticity condition (Palmer) Gray – fringe regions where a special study is needed ?

Only the lenses are simulated. Ideal matrix is used instead of matching sections. Solenoid field Blue: high-field solenoid coils, right-hand part Pink: a half of Li lens (schematically). Volume of diameter 30 cm is provided for it Axial field in the solenoid axes. Maximal value 50 T Transport 4 Tesla solenoid has inner radius 60 cm. 02c_rod.pdf Other coils were considered as well (shape, size, etc.). In all the cases, transition from high to low field is adiabatic (at proper current density), and required beta-function is provided by optimization of the Li lens. Conclusion: design of this assembly is an engineering problem, primarily. MAP Winter Meeting at JLab Feb 28-Mar 4, 2011 V.Balbekov Mar 18, 2010

Summary • Achieved some cooling with Balbekov’s suggestion • Complete the simulation in the next 9 months • Add more realistic features • Adjust the solenoid coils • Adjust the Li lens length • Windows MAP Winter Meeting at JLab Feb 28-Mar 4, 2011
Liquid Li Lens Outstanding Issues • Mechanical fracture from current pulsing at > 500 kAmps per pulse • Heat removal; achieved by rapid flow • Magnetic skin depth at faster than a few Hz rate MAP Winter Meeting at JLab Feb 28-Mar 4, 2011
Liquid Li Lens Development at BINP • The Li lens work by Dr. Silvestrov et. al at BINP was for use at the Tevatron anti-proton source (accord w/ Fermilab for run II) and at CERN. • The lens survived < 100k pulses at 7.5 T (design was 10M and 13 T). • Shock waves in the Li and cracking of the Ti septum.
