Abstract :
The heart of the Argonne Zero Gradient Synchrotron is the large pulsed magnet approximately 180 ft in diameter. This magnet consists of eight curved sections or octants connected by long and short straight sections. It was designed to yield an external proton beam at magnetic fields up to 21. 5 kilogauss. Major considerations in the design, fabrication, testing, and installation of the magnet and its coils are discussed.
