Abstract
Superconducting quadrupole magnets for the interaction regions of the Large Hadron Collider are being developed by the US-LHC Accelerator Project. The se 70 mm bore quadrupole magnets are intended to operate in superfluid heli um at 1.9 K with a nominal field gradient of 215 T/m. A series of 2 m model magnets has been built and cold tested at Fermilab to optimize their desig n and construction and to study the performance of the magnets. Field measu rements of the 8 model magnets and comparisons with the required field qual ity are reported in this paper.
