Abstract :
An alternative beam tube/bore tube arrangement for the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) consists of an elliptical beam tube mounted inside a circular bore tube to intercept the synchrotron radiation from the beam. The beam tube is operated at 80 K and has a slot with a width of 2 mm along the length so that it can be pumped by the 4 K surface of the bore tube. The authors present the results of stress analysis of the beam tube under the action of the Lorentz forces during a quench. A stainless-steel elliptical support, which supports the beam tube during the quench, is described.<>
