Abstract: (WSP)

A conceptual design study of 12-T two-in-one dipole magnets is ongoing with the iron-based superconducting (IBS) technology, as a candidate option for Super Proton Proton Collider (SPPC), which is designed with a circumference of 100 km and a center-of-mass energy of 70 TeV. Compared with Nb3Sn, the IBS design is competitive because of the potential much higher performance and lower cost of IBS conductors in the future. The design study is carried out with an expected Je level of IBS in 10 years. Besides, we also expect the IBS superconductor to have much better mechanical properties compared to stress-sensitive conductors like Nb3Sn and Bi-2212 wires. The 12-T dipole magnet is designed with common-coil configuration. We have optimized the field uniformity with two different layouts of the coil ends, including the soft-way bending and the hard-way bending. We also have explored the influence of a mid-plane gap on the field uniformity. The main parameters, the coil layouts, and the optimization of the field quality are presented.
