Abstract :
The 2200 magnets used in the CEBAF beam transport system have each undergone testing of their magnetic fields. Results of these measurements will be reported. ∫Bdl profiles measurements (with a precision of ≈10-5) for the 270 major solid-core dipoles used a multi-turn stretched wire with a reference magnet; the range of ∫Bdl for a given (1, 2, or 3 m) dipole family was ±5×10 -4. The ~700 quadrupole magnets´ ∫Bndl (1⩽n⩽16, R=Rpole) values were measured with an accuracy of 0.01% of the quadrupole field component using a multi-turn “Halbach” bucked coil for 20% of the magnets and a reference magnet for all. They had (∫B6dl)/(∫B2dl)<0.03% @Rpole and (∫B10dl)/(∫B2dl)<0.2% @Rpole
