Abstract
Within the LHC magnet development program Oxford Instruments has built a one metre model of the 70 mm aperture low-beta quadrupole. The magn et features a four layer coil wound from two 8.2 mm wide graded NbTi c ables, and is designed for 250 T/m at 1.9 K. The magnet has previously been tested between 4.5 K and 2.3 K. In this paper we review the magn et rebuild and the subsequent tests. Results an magnet training at 4.3 K and 1.9 K are presented along with the results related to quench pr otection studies. We also present the first results of magnetic field measurements done at room and liquid nitrogen temperatures.
