Abstract
A planar superconducting undulator (SCU) with a period of 15 mm is under development at the Advanced Photon Source (APS). The intended users require a photon energy that can be tuned from 19 to 28 keV for inelastic X-ray scattering studies. The SCU design consists of two low-carbon-steel cores that are positioned above and below the beam chamber. There are 20 turns of NbTi/Cu superconducting (SC) wire within a coil cross section of 4.3 /spl times/ 4.0 (w /spl times/ h) mm/sup 2/. At a pole gap of 8 mm, the necessary average current density in the coil will be about 1 kA/mm/sup 2/ to achieve a peak field of 0.8 T on the beam axis. The design and fabrication progress of a 12-period prototype SCU are presented, and some challenging requirements are discussed.
