Abstract :
We have constructed 180 degree superconducting bending magnets for compact electron storage rings and tests of magnetic field qualities of the magnets have been performed. Measured field qualities are; (1) high field homogeneity (normalized field errors are less than 1/spl times/10/sup -3/ over the electron beam aperture), (2) high field stability (the decay of the field is less than 0.1%/year) at persistent current mode of 3.5 T, (3) small gradient of coil axis (the averaged value is 0.5 mrad), and (4) small difference of the fields between two magnets (the difference is less than /spl plusmn/1/spl times/10/sup -3/). From the tests of field qualities, we confirm that the magnets have good performance for electron beam storage. An electron beam of 600 MeV can be stored.<>
