Magnets for high energy physics
CMS
CMS solenoid
Geneva (Switzerland), 2005
CMS is a high-performance general-purpose detector for the LHC collider. The magnet, consists of a 4 T superconducting coil having a free bore measuring 6 m in diameter and a total length of about 13 m. It is wound in five separate coil modules which are joined along a common axis, before being inserted in the vacuum tank. This magnet was successfully commissioned in autumn 2006, showing no training behaviour.
