Abstract :
This paper presents key magnetic design considerations and analyses performed on the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) High Energy Booster dipole magnets (HDM). The design considerations include: optimization of the cell cross section to establish low magnetic field harmonic content and specified field strength throughout a wide range of cable azimuthal sizes; effects of wedge geometry and cable stacking procedures on the field harmonics; and effects of yoke geometry and material variations on the central field strength and harmonics of the magnet
