Development of Superconducting Insertion Device Magnets at NSRRC

A superconducting wavelength shifter (SWLS) with a magnetic field of 6.5 T in cryogen-free operation provides X-rays for high-resolution X-ray microscopy, EXAFS, and medical imaging beamlines. A 32-pole superconducting wiggler (SW) with a period of 6.1 cm and a magnetic field of 3.2 T in a liquid helium bath provides for three dedicated protein crystallography beamlines. Additionally, three 16-pole in-achromatic superconducting wigglers (IASW) with a period of 6.1 cm and a field strength of 3.1 T were constructed in-house and installed between the first and second bending magnets of a TBA arc section. Development of a prototype superconducting undulator (SU15) with a period of 15 mm and a field strength of 1.4 T is currently underway at National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (MSRRC).
