  • Abstract
    The ATLAS Experiment proposed for LHC will use toroidal magnet systems to achieve high muon momentum resolution. The proposal is based on an air-cored superconducting toroid magnet system consisting of a long barrel toroid with a pair of end cap toroids to provide high resolution at large rapidity. Each end cap toroid will have an outer diameter of approximately 11 m and an axial length of 5 m and will provide field integrals in the range 4-8 Tm over the rapidity span η=1.5-2.8. This paper presents the magnetic, mechanical and cryogenic design of the end cap toroid magnet systems
