  • Abstract
    The development of an ASTROMAG test coil has been carried out at KEK to find the optimum parameters for the ASTROMAG main coil through an experimental study. Test results are reported. The test coil consists of a pair of windings, and their individual performance has been examined. The objectives of the test coil are to confirm the high stability of the conductor, safety of the coil at quench and cryogenic characteristics. Training phenomena have been observed and quench characteristics have been measured.<>
