Abstract
Superconducting dipole magnets for accelerators have shown various que nch current degradations and unexpected field disturbances even when t hey were fabricated with the same cables. Such degradations become har mful in terms of the stable operation of accelerators. The reasons for the degradations seem to be caused by AC losses due to coupling curre nts between strands and current sharing in Rutherford-type cables. To clarify the reasons, AC loss and current-sharing measurements were per formed.
