  4. Goal of Hi-Lumi upgrade: Reduce * by stronger and larger aperture quadrupole magnets located near the collision points (low- triplet quadrupoles). Increase of Bp that can be transformed in higher quadrupole gradient or/and larger bore diameter Nb3Sn option Iop = 15 200 A Bp = 11.9 T Gradient = 171 T/m A. Ballarino, 17 Nov. 2011

  9. POWERING CONFIGURATION OF THE HIGH LUMINOSITY –NEW- INNER TRIPLETS • Individual powering of each circuit ? • Nested powering, e.g. one main power converter plus current trimming on each magnet ? • Split powering, e.g. Q1 in series with Q2a and Q3 in series with Q2b ? • Need for energy extraction via warm resistors of each individual magnet, i.e. need for • safety leads and additional superconducting cables in the cold bus ? • Time constant of the circuits and amount of stabilizer in the cables ?
